Traditional Indian Recipes / lamb biryani
May 09, 2019, 02:47 PM
I'm posting a recipe that I often use that I found in a book but can't see it anywhere on the internet. It's called the ultimate recipe book by Angela Nilson.  It is a lovely tasty biryani, and I usually add an extra vegetable curry to go with it to add extra taste and sauce. This always goes down well.

I love a peshwari naan with my chicken ginger/garlic balti, packed with sultanas, crispy round the edges and softer inside, I start at the outside and go round and round, pulling off pieces to mop up my balti and eventually come to the thicker middle part which I leave. I've had some very wierd concoctions when asking for peshwawi naans, some just covered with syrup ugh! others with desiccated coconut in ugh too, some really sweetened ones, some with cashew nuts (in India) nice., they're like having your pudding with your dinner!

Great piece of advice Livo. When I  first found this  site I literally could spend all day on the computer going from one thread to another and downloading reams of  information which I put in my curry books and had so much success with following certain people's curry variations. I absolutely love this site.

I made some of these and thoroughly recommend them, really easy to make and very popular with everyone who's tried them, well worth making

My husband bought me two  books but I have already got them so am offering them to anyone on here who would like them. The first one is Mowgli Street food by Nisha Katona (she's on television at the moment hosting the Asian cooking programme) and Dan Toombs The Curry Guy. Both books are new. All I ask is for you to pay the postage costs so if you are interested please pm me.

Thank you for the link, I didn't realise that they had put one out, there was me doing a rerun of the programme on iplayer and scribbling the  .recipe down then searching for one similar on the internet.
