What's left of the Chicken Madras and naan I made last night, really tasty.

Got the recipe from here.  :)

I realised my latest curry was 'there' once my wife put praise on it. She is highly critical of my cooking most of the time and merely gives a 'meh' to most of them.

But with my Rogan Josh she absolutely loves it and and is not afraid of telling me  8) in fact she has invited her best friend and husband around for a curry lunch in  a few weeks to try my curry and naans.  :-\

Is it difficult to make your own garlic/ginger paste ?, I am using a bought one at the moment because I imagine making your own would be hard.

I'm using a 10" (25cm) that I had ordered in for me at the local Indian Grocer for about $20.  I'll be in Western Sydney, Wentworthville  (Little India) on 14 February so I can check out Patel Bros and Udaya to see what they have. If you like I'll by one for you and post it. We can arrange a funds transfer.

Or there is this 26 cm model from DEV Kitchenware Mt Druitt but it is further west and I won't be going out that far.  http://devkitchenware.com.au/index.php/cookware/tawa/v-v-iron-tawa-with-steel-handle.html

Let me know if you want me to look around in Wentworthville next month if you can wait that long.

The one I bought is 9.5 inches and a little small. cost $15, the naans keep over lapping the edges, the one in your link looks flat and not concave ?

All good, thanks for the offer though, I was hoping to find one online.

This is the bottle I have. www.indojin.com/shop/index.php?main_page=popup_image&pID=1466&zenid=i4392rfj4apjjf1o37so9kolo0
.  It is not marked as External only and has Nutritional facts printed on the label so clearly for consumption.  The science on the effects of Erucic acid is not conclusive of being harmful to humans and the PTDI has been extrapolated from animal testing with a safety factor of over 100X.

Hi Livo, a little off topic, but do you know anywhere in Australia to buy online  a large  (28cm-30cm)  iron concave  Tawa ? can't find any  in Adelaide, only small one. thanks

Herbies introduced that product only recently after I contacted him to request it.

I am glad you did, I use it in the Julian Voigt  mix, the one from his ebook.

Works a treat in my curries.

I think mustard oil is available from my local Woolies also, according to google.

I will have to check it out thought, not sure if it will change the taste much thought.

Thanks, I bought some of this one as it is the only source I could find in Australia, but does not contain mustard oil.

Closest I could find, don't think anyone exports here also.

Is Bassar curry masala the same as Kashmiri Curry Masala ?
