Tonight's Tea - Chicken Bangla Garlic and Chicken Bengali

Tonight's Tea - Chicken Bangla Garlic and Chicken Bengali

The Chicken Bengali (left) has a slightly sour note, thanks to the use of tamarind concentrate. I imagine that this will not be to everyone's taste but it is a nice change. By contrast the Chicken Bangla Garlic is positively sweet, though there is no sugar in it. It has a real depth of flavour, due I think to the level of garlic and coriander, which is added to by the spring onions. This has now become a staple and I've been cooking this once a week for the past few months now.

I see that South Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken got a mention in recent posts and this is my effort. requires a bit of effort through a pre-made chilli paste but it is well worth the effort and for me it is on the cusp of hotness to my palate.

CH I think cook4one website had the first two recipes and I adapted them for Taz base and method - the Bengali is fairly intense and a bit spicy, or as you say, it has a bit of attitude.

Looks tops SL. You have inspired me to revisit the taz base again, which I haven't cooked in a long while.

goncalo I've stuck with this base for a couple of years now and don't really feel the need to go anywhere else. If I do I'll probably, it would just be for the hell of it and I'd go back to the Ashoka base and method - it's is absolutely top drawer.
