Hi Colin,
OK I must confess that as I remember both were very good but I did say made as the original recipe.

The grill method was as the original ie. breast meat.
The BBQ was using the original mix but I popped into Asda and picked up a couple of Chicken legs and marinated for 24 hours.
You have to control a BBQ to avoid burning.
This worked well but I would say no better than the grilling method.

Hope that helps.
Regards, James

Thanks Frank.
I'll try your recipe and post the results.

Probably a silly question,
I made a batch for the first time last night and they have all pretty well ended too stiff and crispy (they snap) and not soft like you get in a restaurant.

Possible reasons
Rolled out too thin
Not enough water
Over cooked

Recipe on the packet says rest the initial mixture for 10 mins
Flour = NATO medium chapati flour

Hi Dee Dee,
I want to try CA's bhaji recipe on bank holiday Monday (now that I've got the correct flour :( )
Did you use the original recipe as it appears at the start of the thread or make any adjustments?

Cheers

Sorry, I didn't read your post properly and now from my iPad I realise your point about the server.


So try the photobucket App and that seems to work using the iPad.

Just have to wade in and say that I've made this twice this weekend using the original recipe with no additions etc.
Both marinated for 24 hours.
Once cooked under the grill and on Sunday's BBQ.

I have to say that this will be my tikka recipe of choice from this point on. Fantastic!.
Thanks for sharing.

just to add my approach.
Over the years I have purchased books, collected cuttings and made notes stored in folders.
I decided to use the technology I had already bought and gave it a try.

I currently use an iPad along with my PC (Mac)
I wanted to bring together some of the YouTube videos along with the ingredients all on one screen.
I used the Keynote app to bring it all together
As the video plays in a window I can read the ingredients and keep up in real 'cooking' time in the kitchen.
As this was mainly for practice I have built up a library of notes and recipes stored in the ipads ebook/pdf facility.

Yes,  a bit of a faff I know, but everything is kept together on the move and is a good reference when I'm at work and need to buy some ingredients on the way home.

Indeed fine looking bhajis.

How do you ensure the outside is cooked and you still retain that lovely golden red colour?

I have used C2G's technique of using a knife to pearce each bhaji in the centre after several minutes of the initial frying then continue frying for a couple more minutes to finish.
Seems to work.

I dare say there are lots of good recipes on here but this is the first one I tried and to be honest I feel like I hit the jackpot first time with this one
I made it using CA's base sauce too
Very pleased with the results

Well what do you know? That's my favourite too!
I've made it about 4 times in the last 2 weeks.
That recipe is very more-ish and gets very close to what I'm looking for.
Maybe I'll use it as a foundation and experiment.
