Why did you have to go outside to read the packet? 

Thats what makes me nervous Harry. Australian vindaloos use chicken thighs that has been cooking for a long time and falls apart in your mouth. Because of this ive been cooking thighs in traditional indian dishes which are quite happy to sit simmering away for an hour or so. So....do I go exactly as per the CA vindaloo recipe and make a BIR dish that I havent had for 20 years (and can hardly remember) or go with a slow simmer vindaloo (using the same ingredients) and chicken thighs a la AIR? 

Edit: Or.....have the thighs being pre-cooked and added to a quick dish to make me think they have been sitting simmering for a long time! 

Wow! What a disappointing end to what was a good read! Was looking forward to the results!

Looks delicious 

OK Cool, glad its not just me. Yes I forgot, there was also that silly shoutbox thing too

P.S. Mods, feel free to move this to the Forum suggestion section.

Is it just me or has the layout of the site changed slightly? On the menu bar at the top Im pretty sure it had from L to R Home, Forum, Help, Search etc etc. In the Home section it had latest topics. Now it doesnt, it just includes the Forum titles with latest topics at the bottom (in a different format). Is it just my computer?

thats right, you scoop them onto your chopping board and then lick the chopping board 

Was wondering the same the other night Harry. CA doesnt use pre-cooked in his chicken vindaloo which I was going to make the other night. Made me wonder why most do use pre-cooked at home. My wife makes the kids a dish with chicken breasts and par-boils it and then uses that in the dish and it stays nice and juicy. From memory the longer you cook chicken breast the tougher it gets? Hence, I guess the reason for a flash cook of only a few mins.

Chop the tomato in half and spoon out the juice/seeds and then dice the tomato.

Thats interesting Phil. I made this on Saturday to the letter but didnt notice a raw curry flavour. It was delicious (admittedly it was my first base that ive made). Even my mother-in-law who nearly faints at even the mention of anything to do with spice had a whiff after id blended it and said it smelt very nice. Ended up with only 2 litres as my 2 year old had one spoon full and then wouldnt give up so I gave him a little bowl full! Unfortunately by the time I was ready to make CAs vindaloo I was three sheets to the wind and was in no way fit to make it  :
