I bought this little curry book [very little] 57 pages total!
Only got it because as far as i know the only BIR cookbook from a Bangladeshi chef and restaurateur
MR Mohammed Shofique Ullah.
But it does have all the mains you need plus sides, sundries + desserts
Haven't had time to try any recipes yet, the 'bhuna onion' caught my eye, seems similar to ashoka bunjara
there is moots of pre made pastes for the tikka recipes so maybe not for the purists, reads more like a bir menu then a cook book with typos and bad grammar but who am i to criticize as long as the curry's turn out to be good.
a couple of things that do bug me tho is the price 11 squid + p+p [dont tell George he'll have a (moderated) heart attack]
and the spice mix is called 'secret spice mix' pleasssse, and whats with the title? unless there restaurant is called curry crunch i dun-know!!
anyone else have this book?
one copy left

Breads (Naan, Puri, Chapatti, Paratha, etc) / Re: Naan Bread Non-Yeast Recipe
October 25, 2012, 07:31 PM
Many thanks for your v.good post SL, i guess you have a electric hob? [like me] i find blow torch to direct with its blue flame, a yellow floppy flame works better, IE invert your pan [a thick pan or tava to hold the heat] 180 and let the gas burner lick the bread, like CBM shows in his post.

wetting the back of the dough is best to get it to stick to the pan.
not criticizing your top looking naans tho mate

Lets Talk Curry / Re: What to charge for a curry gig
October 24, 2012, 07:24 PM
roughly speaking a restaurant will do this depending on overheads
cost of food per dish + 60 to 70% per head.
200[on food] / 60[people] = 3.33[per person]
60 % 3.33 = 1.99
total per person 5.32
so 320 quid would be sit down price. i guess a buffet would be cheaper.
if my sums are correct
Actually that looks well tight!
