That looks bang on! well done feller!

Thanks unclebuck, credit to CH's recipe it was superb, i took the remainder into work next day and everybody said they'd happily pay for that over their local takeaway, and in true BIR style it did seem to taste even better the next morning

As promised some pictures of CH's NIS.

I was very pleasantly surprised and impressed with this dish CH . I didn't really know what to expect with the addition of a few of the sweetening ingredients (gaz's onions and mango chutney) along with the tamarind paste. This dish tasted superb and not at all too sweet . Its nice that the spiced onions come through slightly as an aftertaste along with the softened onions and the general spiciness of the dish.

I have to admit that i did wimp out on the chilli amount, i used a heaped tsp of deggi mirch along with 3 chopped chillis and 2 whole chillis halved
In case anybodys wondering about the oil separation, it happened about 2 mins after i took the pics before tucking in
I could actually stand to go a bit hotter and will do next time
This is a dish i WILL make again

Thanks CH

Yes!  get yourself the imageshack app from the app store. You'll have to create a free account. Then you can upload an image from the album (or take a new snap and upload) and it'll give you a direct link which you can embed in "[img]" tags in your post.

Thanks NJ, almost managed with photobucket but having resizing issues

Has anybody successfully uploaded photos to this website from an iphone or an ipad? My main pc's away being repaired and have an ipad and iphone but cannot fathom how to get pictures on here, i have joined photobucket and uploaded some pics but cannot get image host to allow me to input a web address, nor can i get my ipad to allow me to copy and paste a url directly

Anyone any ideas??

Thanks in advance

Wayne

Not familiar with this dish CH as i usually stick to the old jalfrezi, but i'm gonna give it a whirl tonight as it does look and sound delish!
1 question though, is page 8 of this thread the final draft of this dish

W

Page 8 is indeed the final draft W.  Just beware my mistake on the tomato paste qty.  Recipe should read 2 tbs of already diluted tom paste ( 1 part paste to 2 parts water).  It could be misinterpreted in the recipe.  I have clarified this a little later on in the post on page 9.  Hope you enjoy it W.  Look forward to feed back and pictures a little later.  Out of interest which tandoori masala are you going to use??

I have the rajah tandoori masala CH, will report back later

Some of my chilli plants, now I've pricked out from seed trays and now potted up (in anything I could find).
About another 20, plus a seed tray full of my collected seeds that are still sprouting, upstairs on bedroom window sill.

Think I may have gone overboard with the amount, but as a beginner to this, I wasn't sure how many would come through. : ;D



I'd still give it a go QF, just might get a late crop if all goes well.

Bloody hell i'm only growing three!

Gutted !!

All this talk of cheap basmati .. you guys are really lucky living in UK .. all your curry stuff seems so cheap. I had to pay 40 Euros on Friday for a 10kg bag of Tilda .. there's only one Asian shop to my knowledge in Slovakia so we have to pay whatever they ask or go without. Green cardamom were 3.50 Euros for 50g !!

I swear by Tilda and agree with SD .. the longer you have it the better it tastes.

I got lucky with Tilda at sainsbury's 2 weeks ago. A 4kg bag of the pure basmati was on offer at ?6.50. Staff had put a 5kg bag in the space where the offer was so without realising I took it to the till, when I questioned the price (?20) they honoured the ?6.50 price and put it down to staff error.

I'm surprised none of us northerners haven't made the trip across and tried one of his curries, i'm about 40 mins away so really should make the effort. I will definitely try and get across at some stage as it would be nice to know what i'm trying to replicate once in posession of the ebook

Hiya Wayne,

I'm over in Crosten (Chorley/Preston) in June on a camping trip and have already pencilled it in the curry diary mate.

Ray

Nice one Ray, please post or PM me your opinions if you're there before me
