Mhmm now your asking, the old forgetery may be a bit taxed here as this picture was from one of many curry nights and was a few months back. Starting at the top I believe it was,
Stir fried greens from Vivek Singh recipe
Mrs Singhs Kabuli Channa
Rogan Josh, Madhur Jeffrey
Kedgeree, just lentils and rice, not the fishy breakfast dish
I believe the prawns were cooked with mustard seeds and more greens but cannot recall the exact recipe,
Butter chicken, a Julie Sahni, Pat Chapman hybrid
Another dish of vegetables but I cannot recall the recipe.

We are planning another Soir

Guys,
I am a complete Luddite when it comes to computing and now exclusively browse using an iPad Problem is I cannot resize or compress photos to make them comparable to some of the great shots you see on the site.

Is anyone aware of an App that I can download for the iPad that would allow me to compress and resize pics?

Thanks

Lets Talk Curry / Re: Best Curry Pan Yet!!!

I came to this thread through a picture link on the bottom of the page today and saw it was an old thread from 2013.

Are aluminium pans a necessity to recreate a good BIR?

I use an induction hob so I couldn't make use of an Ali' pan, but I must admit that I get better trad results from cast iron cookware. Certainly get onions browned quicker with a lot less hot spots.

Anchovy, olive oil and garlic pasta ... simply delicious! It was Italian cooking that got me on to anchovies in the first place, in bolognese I think.

Similarly first time I ever encountered an anchovy was on a four seasons pizza when I was working in Portsmouth about 1980; first time I came face to face with a caper too!

So young and innocent and the world was full of new flavours.

Had to give up the Gentlemans relish though, too much salt, too big an addiction.

My favourite sandwich is boiled-egg-and-anchovy.  And I still add salt to the eggs !

Ciabatta with mozzarella and anchovy

The larger Sainsbury's are doing ox cheeks for about six quid a kilo. I love this meat, the long and slow cooking times render down the meat and give it the most superb taste.
I recently cooked Madhur Jeffrey's Rogan Josh with it instead of the usual lamb; it was good!

So good I bought 3 kilos of it today and only stopped then as the wife was dragging me away from the butchers counter.
