Korma / Re: CA's Simple Chicken Korma
March 15, 2012, 11:28 PM
At the request of our kids (not normally curry fans) I cooked this again tonight, along with CA's Jalfrezi and the Bradford Masala. I halved the quantity of salt  in the Bradford dish, but I think it really does need all that salt to taste right.

Anyway, I tried to get a couple of pictures. Sorry about the light but I cooked this outside on the BBQ sideburner, and they were snapped with my iphone. I'll try harder next time.

Another 10/10 from the kids for the Korma. :)

I was born in '62, and I remember my dad talking about "The Knackers Yard" down the road. I'm sure most of you would recognise this name as a horse abbatoir.

There was also a glue works, which apparently used horse by-products (bones) in the manufacturing process. Now that place DID stinkl!!

Bhuna / Re: CA's Chicken Bhoona

WOW. I am sat enjoying this chicken bhuna right now . ;D

I made up a batch of CA's base sauce this morning and couldn't resist having a sneaky curry for lunch before the rest of the sauce gets frozen.

Apart from trips back to UK, this the THE BEST curry I have tasted since we emigrated in 1996. And believe me I have spent $1,000's in restaurants looking for a decent curry

THANK YOU!!!

Hi mate

I don't know if these are only a WA company, but they definitely sell them, I saw them in the Osborne Park branch on Saturday

I tried this today. I cheated and cooked the garlic/onion mixture in the Thermochef, and it did burn a little, but luckily I caught it in time.

I added about 100ml of base sauce to it, and apart form being just a little too salty (I will adjust it next time) it was very, VERY nice indeed!! :)


I also cooked a Korma and Madras.


Definitely the best of the 3 curries tonight. Thanks for posting mate.

Thanks again people. When I do get around to cooking something, I'll snap it and post it then, but please don't expect any hidden secrets here.  :o

Hi Mark I'm in Perth. We had a new place open here last year called "The Glasgow Curry house" and we all very excited. It is owned by a Glaswegian Pakistani family, but, als, it is not that great. They do "proper" donner kebas on excellent naan, but the curry dishes are pretty average.  :(

I ordered a chicken Tikka Masala and it was so HOT, it was inedible, you could taste, and see the chilli powder in it. I asked for some yoghurt sauce and was offerd red Glasgow chilli sauce????

We do have a few "decent" restaurants here. One that springs to mind is a place called "Anghiti" Believe it or not, the owners name is "BIR" Singh .  ;)

BTW, just ahd a holiday in Brisbane/Gold Coast, end of Jan.....it never stopped raining....... ???

Thanks fellas for the welcomes.

After spending a good few hours on the forum, I think I would feel a bit silly now posting my recipes, as you are all light years ahead of me........or so it seems.

I am gonna stick around if you will allow it, I am ready to learn....and share!! :)

Thanks for the reply and the link Michael. I will check out the youtube link later.

At the end of the day, here in OZ, the standard of restaurant food is way below UK standard, so the Thermochef takes out all that hard labour for me, and still produces results far superior to the average restaurant.

I'm sure the more I remain a memeber of this forum, the "chef" will be used more and more for chopping only. :)
