Bhuna / Re: Chicken Bhuna - Finally Cracked It!!
January 26, 2014, 01:31 PM
Hi All

Not got that much experience of Bhunas but made 976's the other day and what a flavour!!!! Quite astonished at the taste with relatively little ingredients and fuss.

Mine was a King prawn version with Abduls base and mix powder and a mixture of veg oil and asdas chalice oil. Needed a little more oil as this base is low oil content, also used a whole elephant garlic bulb as they are not split into bulbs. Had it with plain rice so I could pick out all the flavour,Very very very  moreish,

Can't wait to try the lamb and chicken versions!!

Here's a piccy!

Guys

Made the base, tarka and madras to spec yesterday and a very good curry it was! I wish I had found this thread before hand though as i had the same concerns - thick base - dry tarka.

So next time I will thin the base and use 3 or 4 tbsp of oil or the tarka/

Two questions is the tomato puree watered down or straight out of the tube/tin etc and do you guys use g and g paste or freshly sliced and crushed g and g. Mine could have done with more garlic so i may slice some extra for the tarka

Hi Chris

Is this your winning recipe? If not have you the link? Also is fennel acceptable as an aniseed substitute?

Hi CH looks bloody yummy!!! I'm not that keen on butter ghee, whats your opinion on the veg ghee and what does it bring that normal oil doesn't?

Cheers

Hi

good choice of dahl!! Colin's friends recipe is a winner in our household and doesn't usually last long enough to hit the dhansak?

Hi Donnie

Glad you liked it, its a good recipe. With the coconut you have essentially made a Ceylon!
