[colin grigson]

Blades tikka as a starter with Dip's mint sauce, CA's dhansak ( CA's base and masala ) , CA's pilau rice , and for the girls Dip's chicken tikka biriani ... all with home done chapatis.

I'm yet to discover a reasonable BIR dessert ( usually majorly ming ) ... any ideas from you clever people ?

Hi Colin,

A pistachio kulfi is a superb desert IMO.
It is a type of Indian ice cream.

Usually served as a green upside down cone-shaped thing, a bit like a volcano to look at.

There are plenty of recipes out there but I suspect the BIRs buy them ready made.

Cheers,

Paul

I cooked up a big batch of Chewys base this morning then made:

- Chicken Korma (CA)
- Chicken Tikka Masala (Dipuraja's version)
- Lamb Bhuna (CA)
- Chicken Tikka Balti (C2go)
- Lamb dhansak (own)
- Chicken Ceylon (CA)
- Lamb Jalfrezi (Chewy)
- Chicken madras (Chewy)
- Saag gosht (own)
- mushroom bhaji
- Chicken Vindaloo (CA's special recipe marinaded overnight in chillies and spices)

12 blokes round for a poker night tomorrow. Curries are marinating away in the fridge in foil containers. Should taste better tomorrow than they did today. 

Froze enough base for 14 more curries...happy days!!

I rememeber back in Rusholme, Manchester back in the early 90's before we emigrated, there were a few shops that specialised in deserts. They had these wonderfully colourful window displays. Every "cake" looked absolutely gorgeous, but tasted..............well, let's say they tasted nothing like they looked.

I remember a horrible oily, dessicated coconut with a hint of cardamom taste. When you're expecting a chocolate lamington taste it came as a real shock. 

I'll stick to tandoori and curry!
