Cooking on Gas

After a great summer Tandooring on charcoal
switched back to gas fired for the winter season.

Tested it with Tandoori Chicken, nice clean and efficient.

Used MANGAL Dhansak for years, never found a better blend.

But whats Dhansak got to do with this thread

Thanks for the links / info Andy

CP 321 - Trinidad Scorpion Red - CARDI
A definite match to what I received.

They are brilliant as Ive been looking for a new hot flavour
for some time, that has a distinctive flavour as opposed to
the same old scotch bonnet flavour you get in hot sauces etc.

I thought they looked a bit like the Naga I've bought before
Where I learnt the lesson of not taking a nibble. : ;D

Anyhoo, Can create some new Scorpion curries for winter warming.

Thanks again

Hi MA
Great looking crop.

I received some free fresh chillies grown by a neighbours mate on their allotment
Said they are very hot Trinidads, look a bit like Naga to me, but rated hotter.

Do you recognize them?



Tried a full one in a Jal Frezi and it was really fruity hot
edible and tasty, not just screaming HOT.

I was expecting that Caribbean Scotch Bonnet flavour, but no,
a much better fruity taste as well as the heat

Asked for more, (cheeky) so I can freeze them off

cheers Chewy

Here you go again Pete/Haldi

1.5 kg of red lentils, a big sieve needed. ;D

On first look
Coriander Chutney Dip and Kachumber mixed on top of a Dhansak
Messed up flavours for sure and will conflict a good curry.
Thats why their Dips, But good luck trying to sell this.

Food Truck plus students, a winner all day long and Interesting project Bob
The date 1943 is a bit confusing
Interested to see photos of this World War 11 van.

Could it be an earlier TUB or the extremely rare TUC model



If it comes true, you will have to do bulk recipes, which you might share
for interested folks, instead of these old forum cut and paste adaptions.

Excited to see how this pans out!

9 years LoL, ;D ;D  as your obviously not dead, just shows how long these spice pastes
can last in the home, if your not too fussy!  ;D ;D

Can imagine these puffs stuffed with you favourite BIR Bhuna, very easy to do!

Good Bump for Madmats festive treats.

cheers Chewy

Shatkora dishes have been on BIR menus and sold to the public for at least 30 years.
It has a unique citrus taste and cannot be substituted by any other citrus rind.

If Shatkora is not available to you, just jog along and cook something else, as you
will NOT recreate the unique flavour.of the dish.

Bit of a vague old thread, but the gist of it was the OP liked a sweet Dhansak
Which in reality should not be too sweet

The sweet element of a Dhansak is Shakkar and Pineapple
The OP should have sussed that by now, if he still tries to cook BIR.

Great looking crop MA - Hot Hot Hot

Nice to read a genuine post on home grown chillis.

Cheers Chewy
