Why is it the only  thing I can ever grow is weeds 

;D

Lovely, healthy plants, Andy! Time I was sowing again. I overwintered 6 plants from last year, but I have my doubts about their viability for this year - they resemble dry sticks at the mo! Fingers crossed!

I so know that feeling, mine all went in the bin 

Very nice looking Plants Andy

Also Pete dont forget to feed it from time to time, we give ours a bit of tomato food every now and then, not tooo much, its where triffids came from

I do feel a bit sorry for CA, as he must be the most persecuted man in home curry cooking forum history. Every man and his dog seems to want to have a dig and it all stems from the fact that he wasn

A  few times I've made some really nice raita using fresh mint
I bought it from the local Asian shops
I'd like to grow some (quite expensive to buy a bunch)
Does anyone know what is the common Asian mint sold?
It's always there, along with, the fresh fenugreek and coriander

Hi Pete, I would just buy a small pot of mint at Tesco then plant it in a big pot and put it outside, by June you will have a pot full, that

I saw a recipe online where Instead of making whole Bhaji's the mix was fried as bite sized nibbles (finger food) which means you don't have to double fry, has anyone done this?

Any particular tandoori masala ?  I have Laziza tandoori spice mix paste, but I would be concerned that the finished dish might taste more like tandoori chicken than chicken tikka if I were to use that ...

FWIW. my preferred tikka and tandoori recipes are here.

KTC was the last make of powder i bought, i have never tried a variety to make a preferencial choice really.

Just out of curiosity has anyone used an air fryer?

Andy

I did read about someone saying with Onion Bhaji's the texture was not there.
