Red chilli seeds.  Dried or fresh?

Hi Curryhell,

Use dried red chilli seeds which are not fried :) and you should be able to buy them from any asian store.

Hi everyone,

I'm not experienced in cooking for numbers and in a couple of weeks need to cater for around 12 guests.
Their tastes all vary so will/may be serving CTM, Jalfrezi, Madras, Vindaloo, Dhansak my problem lies with reheating them once they are all cooked.
Do i do single portions?
Buffet style help your self?
Microwave or oven to reheat?

Any advice would be much appreciated

Leon :)


Hi Leon,

My advice is, for 12 guests, you need at least 3 portions of each dish and do a buffet system. Make sure you have at least 45 medium pieces of chicken or lamb. You will find that by having the buffet system, everything will finish so you will not have to reheat. Hope this helps  :).

Hi Abdul,

I would like to know in your 8 spice mix: what brand do you use? do you grind any fresh? and what type/strength of chilli powder?

Thanks Abdul and keep up the good posts it is much appreciated 

Leon

Hi Leon, the brand that I use to make 8 spice is Rajah and I do not grind any fresh and the strength of the chilli powder should be normal, not extra hot  :).

The brand paste that I use is Pataks.

Abdul,

have found matching balti taste difficult (alum rock road). having tried the dish from several North West BIR's it's clear the professionals struggle too.

the nearest i've found are Dipuraja's - with paste (https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=4520.0) and Razor's - no paste (https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=4297.0). i still keep a yellow sticky recipe of razor's but have ditched dipuraja's down to the pataks taste.

the real question for me is about the paste ie is it needed, can you make your own, if no paste then how is the taste gap bridged from standard BIR. i know the base is supposed to be different but can't see this being the whole of the story.

Hi JerryM,

The paste is optional and you can make your own. Once you identify the taste of the dish you are preparing, then yes, you can make a dish without the paste.

I shall be making this with your spice mix and base
Do you use Pataks Balti paste?

Hi Haldi,

Yes, I do use Pataks Balti paste  :)
