Meggeth, you have a lot to answer for.

I pride myself on my parathas but Mrs G informs me that egg-fried chapattis are now the bread of choice in the Garp household.

Not BIR, I realise, but very very tasty :)

If you are referring to chilli powder, I used red stuff. I'm not into using names for spices that I don't need to.

For instance - people on here say 'add some methi' - it's FENUGREEK. If you're going to refer to a spice by it's Hindi or other name, then refer to them all by that.

Anyway......rant over. it was nice and I used red 'mirch' :)

I use the same dough mixture for both Phil. But didn't do the layering thing that you do with parathas and employed Meg's eggy doo dah :)

Just posting my weekly effort - Chicken Madras from Chewy's Zeera recipe (with crispy onion garnish)

Chicken Madras

I had to adjust the quantities as I was cooking for three (as usual) but it was delicious - thanks to Chewy for recipe/method. Can't really fault it at all - restaurant quality without a doubt.

Here's one with side dish of Gujerati-style cabbage and carrots in the background

Chicken Madras

And the side dish on its own

Chicken Madras

Almost forgot - I had a go at Meggeth's egg-fried chapattis - added some garlic powder to the chapatti dough mix and some spice mix, as suggested, and some garlic puree to the egg mix. Really good - thanks for an original idea Meg :)  Here's how they turned out

Actually - it is getting boring here. I think it was Chris who said there were a lot of people who talk a good game but haven't a clue how to cook a curry.

As the Meerkat would say 'Simples'

Thanks my friend. But I would say that the cooking skills involved are minimal compared to many more intricate dishes.

But I'll find out soon :)

If it does happen there will be no secret :)
