Hi Dragon,

Thanks for that, I thought Tom Frito was a spanish thing, I wouldn't have thought of looking in the Asian supermarkets in the UK.  Do you happen to know what the Asian supermarkets call their equivalent or who manufactures it.

Thanks for your help,

Blondie

Hi CurryCanuck,

I will try that to make Tomate Frito, just to see if I can create a curry like I've eaten in Tenerife.  They are different to BIR but still good.

Thanks,

Blondie

Hi Dragon,

Is there an easy way to make Tomate Frito, because as far as I can establish, in the UK it is only available via the internet at about ?2.50 (3.75 euros) for 400g. When I was in Tenerife recently I bought some Tomate Frito for about 0.50 euros.

The cost of Tomate Frito ready made in the UK would make it's use uneconomical.

Cheers,

Hi Thunderbird40,

The Kushi book states that they use 125ml ladle in the restaurant, but that should only be used as a guide.  Do bear in mind that the amount of pre-cooked meat used in most Kushi recipes is also 1 ladle per person, but the method they use to cook the meat will mean that part of that ladle will also be a gravy.

Do let us know how this Jalfrezi turns out as I am going to try it with the Kushi base and spicing shortly.

Cheers,

Hi all,

Hasn't ifindforu (Terry) spent several years in takeaway / Restaurant kitchens?  Surely he would know for sure if different masallas are used, but as far as I can tell from his posts to date he advocates just one special spice mixture doesn't he?

Hi all,

Does anyone have a recipe for the Vegetable Curry that normally accompanies the Biriyani at the BIR?

Cheers,

Hi Blade1212,

I am going to make you're chicken tikka better then BIR as soon as I clear one small point.
Does the marinade not have any yoghurt in it as this is the first recipe for tikka that I have made that doesn't?

Cheers,

Blondie
