Merry Christmas, everyone...!
« on: December 25, 2011, 11:28 AM »
Good morning curry lovers, I hope you all got everything that you wanted :)

Unfortunately, I fell for the old "oh, let's not get each other anything this year, we'll just spend it on the kids" chestnut :(  Only to wake up to a stack of prezzies from my better half ???

Guess what I'll be doing tomorrow :'(

I didn't get the new bike that I wanted but that's ok, I got kerplunk, operation, monopoly and a brand new Action man ;D

Have a great day everyone, and a curryliscious 2012

Ray :)

Enjoy the day everybody.  Looking forward to the New Curry Year already ;D

I got a cast iron sizzler, for cooking chicken tikka starters on
I saw one at a restaurant the other day
You heat it on a gas ring for five minutes
Bung onion on it & cook for another five minutes
Add chopped precooked tikka and heat another five minutes (magic number five)
Add lemon juice
It goes crazy spitting and steaming
And serve
Can't wait to try it
In fact I might even ask a chef to give it a whirl on his cooker
It was only a tenner on Amazon
Bargain

awrabest :)
got 75% of a beef vindaloo from last night in the fridge. gonna munch on that when I come home about midnight :)
ordered over fone last night. the chef actually answered the fone and said "do you know this is hot"
me being dumba$$ said "hell yeah.love it hot.the hotter the better!!"
methinks he thought to himself.."i'm gonna teach this dude a lesson"..coz when it arrived it was HOT.. much hotter than usual..a bit too hot in fact. thats why i only ate about a quarter of it :)
gonna give it another go tonight after I've had a few beers :)
spoke to the chef and asked him about his base gravy and curry "secrets"...he had a laugh and said "there is no secret"...Happy Christmas

You've been married /how long/, and you fell for that one ?!

Ah, Monopoly : played that last weekend when we had visitors, but we had only a German set : it is quite difficult when you are not sure whether a Chance/Community card (Gemeinschafts Feld / Ereignis Feld) says "Advance to ..." or "Go back to ...", or whether it says "Bank error in your favour ..." or "You owe bank ...".  Still, we got there in the end, and with three houses on the German equivalent of Mayfair and Park Lane (Grunewald and Insel Schwanenwerder), yours truly triumphed in the end :)

Merry Christmas, everyone, and here's to <whatever> 2012.

** Phil (looking forward to opening his prezzie, which he knows in advance will have 16Gb RAM, an i7 processor and an Intel m/b :)

Odd how women always think that, isn't it ?  You buy them something sexy so they will look their best, and then they accuse you of having an ulterior motive ...  Mind you, my present to Khanh is all set to keep us both happy and entertained over the holiday : the 8-DVD Harry Potter set !

** Phil.
