I would use them stright from the freezer as they go a bit limp when defrosted :-\

+1 - that's exactly what I do with mine.

That will explain why I like it, but I think I know what you mean about the ingredients list. It looks a bit bizarre, but strangely, it seems to work. The consistency of the sauce is really nice and the taste is definitely unusual - but not in a bad way! I think I might chop a chilli or two into the next one just to act as a counterpoint to the sweetness of the fruit and the Carnation. :)

I've been meaning to try this for a while and I thought that last night would be as good time as any to open up that massive tin of mango pulp I bought on offer at Tesco a couple of months ago!

Very worthwhile indeed! I thoroughly enjoyed this curry and, given that I've now frozen 4 x 175g portions of the leftover mango pulp, I'll be making it again and again.

Thanks for posting the recipe, Rich. :)

If the skewers you ordered are the same as those I wrote about in the first post on this thread then you'll not be disappointed. :)

ChewyTikka uses white cabbage in his base gravy. I made some the other day and had it with UncleBuck's Pathia recipe and very nice it was too! :)

Surely this is tandoori chicken wings not chicken chaat? There's not a chaat spice to be seen in that recipe.

I mentioned something similar in a previous thread about Chicken Chaat. Chicken Chaat it may not be, but that's what the local TAs call it.

Exceptional effort, mate, and the grub looks fantastic! There must be a book deal in this lol! :)

I'm in the Central Belt, Stephen. If you've seen any of my previous photos on this topic, you'll see my chilli plants do well on both east and south facing window cills. I can't say I've had any joy with putting them out in a polytunnel or greenhouse. I HAVE tried, believe me!

Even in these dreich, wet and shortening days, I still have some of the plants flowering and all are still producing fruit - even the Scotch Bonnets and Habeneros.

Maybe you are a bit more sunny and sheltered where you live, so greenhouse growing wouldn't be totally out of the question, but as you know, we can have surprise frosts at most times of the year and your chillis would probably be severely damaged if left out of doors.
