The bloody BBC don't allow me to play it because I'm in Slovakia .... will this torture never end !!   

The same video - of the Lamb Korai - is on youtube as already posted and discussed here less than a year ago, in August 2011:

Hadn't seen that, made for interesting viewing. But is it right to call it a Korai when its not cooked in one?


Ali (Shanaz) said to me the other night, that the korai imparts a smokiness to the dish when cooked. Whether this be smell or taste i'm not sure but it will have a baring on how the dish tastes, surely?

Fair question, Malc, but if you notice, the restaurant version is served (and presumably cooked) in a karahi/korai; perhaps Rick Stein doesn't have one, and used the nearest he had : a casserole.  And there would be nothing to stop us from cooking it in a karahi/korai, although the quantities he used would swamp most !

Your right of course Phil, I think I just wanted to mention Ali's comments and found them very interesting. Especially considering Rick's own comments in his video "we all try to replicate curries at home , but there is always something missing".
