I had one container of base sauce left in the freezer tonight and I really fancied a nice hot curry. Made myself a Vindaloo and a Korma for the OH. Went down very nice indeed.



Chicken Vindaloo



Vindaloo with rice



Chicken Korma

The Vindaloo was made using a mix of dried red chillies, deggi mirch, kashmiri mirch and fresh green chillies. Using the different types really makes for a nice flavour for me. As for the Korma, well, it's just a Korma I guess.

Nice looking pizza there Garp. A really good amount of cheese on it too mmmmmm.

Hi Pugs, they are just mixed together.

Had this last night for my parents anniversary. Very nice indeed but there was very little left for me for breakfast, barely a snack. But I guess that's ok because there is still some base sauce in the freezer.

   

Thanks Mick. The recipe is the curry2go from Julian. I have never tried butter chicken in a restaurant before so I have nothing to compare it to but for me it's quite nice, and it has a little bit of heat too so it's quite different to CTM.

Thanks Geoffbrick, I was very tempting to keep testing them but I did manage and they really enjoyed all of the curries, including the vindaloo which was a surprise as they haven't had one before and they didn't even seem to break out into a sweat, must have been too mild for them heheheheh. I hope you manage to recover all your photos.

Thanks Al. I did just sample a little of each but it was so hard not to sample them a little more later. Knowing that they are lurking in the fridge means I really have to show a lot of self restraint.

I must say that after cooking I wasn't that hungry but leaving for just a little while the craving soon comes back so it was fortunate that I had some tikka left or it would have been cornflakes or something.

Thanks Naga, I just hope they don't like the vindaloo too much so that there is some left for tea.

The individual photos really don't show the difference in the four curries so here's a group photo.



Left to right Madras, Vindaloo, Butter Chicken and CTM.

I have my parents coming over tomorrow in celebration of their 50th wedding anniversary. They asked me if I could make a few curries for them so I made these today.
