Hi,

The dish looks superb!  ;D

I might even consider putting it into my menu, would you have any objections?

Thank you,

Abdul

Hi Rich
Good post, looks great, who you inviting for dinner.
Just an observation on your technique, if I may.

26 Min's seems quite along time on the hob.

In true BIR style, the veg would be par cooked
and the finished dish would only take about 6-7 minutes
on med to high heat.
Everybody cooks differently, but my understanding of Jalfrezi
is a quick fry up.

Just a suggestion, not a critique.
cheers Chewy

I agree Chewy

I didnt want to turn the pumpkin into mush without letting the sweetness come out into the dish - it tasted great to be honest - but very filling!!
I would say that this could be par cooked if i did it again and it could be turned into a Pumpkin Danshak  as well - not sure how the old flatulence level would be after so much veg though!

Hi Abdul,
It would be good to see some pictures of this dish being cooked in your restaurant/takeaway kitchen if possible.
Cheers,
