Another outing for the uuni. Pizzas are getting better and I'm going to put the thermometer in to see what temperatures I can get which means i can try different things in it. Anyway, I digress, here's the photos....

Talk About Anything Other Than Curry / Pizza and Naan in the Uuni

Boys and Their Toys
Got an uuni wood fired pizza oven for xmas and only had a few goes of it due to weather. Anyway took it over to Chewys yesterday for a play with and made some pizzas and also wanted to try Naans. The oven runs of wood pellets in a small crib at the back and the flame is drawn across the inside of the oven and up the large flue. It'll cook a pizza in 2 minutes. Cooked pizza straight in the oven, a few naans and also tried a pan pizza. The oven cooks really quickly and you can go from hero to zero in 5 seconds. When cooking the naan, I caught the first one on the edge and then reduced the time to just over a minute with a turn at the halfway stage. The photo of the straight in the oven pizza isn't very good but it shows the crust which the pizza lovers seem to like. Next is one of the naans which came out good. The last lot are in the pan and the base could have done with a little bit more so next time I'll reduce the temperature on it to allow a slightly longer cook. Can't wait for some warmer weather so i can do some other stuff on it.. Overall its a great bit of kit and i'm well pleased with it.
And coupled with Chewy's gas tandoor try-out, it was a great day out.

Wednesdays Lunch
Family invited to a Bangladeshi wedding the other day which was a great and interesting afternoon out. Around 600 people there and of course bowls of homestyle curry for food. Chicken Pakora, seekh kebab and tandoori chicken starter. Main was lamb curry , chicken curry (both quite spicy) and a tarka dhal with plain rice. The lamb was just melt in the mouth and sadly just binned after the meal. Sitting on the table with a couple of chefs, my missus leaned over and said quietly, 'We're at a wedding,....... do not........ask........how they make their base' :/
Lamb Curry
Chicken Curry - what was left of it
Tarka Dhal (like the photo angle Rich?)
