Not a clue phil i just press and hope for the best

Hi
Well I finally got my hands on a jar of Mr naga chilli pickle and could not wait to try it I have had Mr naga curries before so was really looking forward to it I decided to go for a masala style as I have been loving cbm's shashlick masala dish from his ebook. This did not disappoint the curry itself tasted fantastic and with fresh chilli and chilli powder along with the Mr naga had a good kick to it the flavour that the Mr naga gave to the dish was great. Like a div I never bother to write the recipe down as I cooked it but never mind and these pictures do not do it justice must invest in a decent camera.




And a saag aloo for the missus

Hi
Having purchased both Micks ebooks a few weeks  back I thought id give a recipe a go opted for the shashlick as I have never had one before and the pictures for the shashlick on its own is very tempting I didn't have any mr naga so used green chilli pickle.

Hi CH
The NIS was bang on as usual still one of my all time best dishes.

Ottis like CH said its more about getting the technique right than the base you use one thing I would say is that just because some recipes asks for 300ml of base I only use what I need if you like a thick sauce add a little less at times depending on the dish being cooked if a dish like the north indian special has extra pre cooked onions peppers and some tomato in it I find this bolsters the overall content of the dish so I only add about 200ml and you still get a full take away portion.
