Re: The Curry Thread

Since i learnt to cook, i make all my own curries now, and they kick ass. Taste way better than the takeaways with their gallon of oil around the edges.

Re: The Curry Thread

A very hot homemade Thai Red or Green curry.

Beef curry and fried rice from the Chinese.

Indians takeaways aren't that popular here (Ireland) compared to the UK but the company I work for are based in Sutton Coldfield and there is an excellent place called Kababish. Every time I'm there I have Desi Gohst or however you spell it.........mmmmmmmmmmmm.

Re: The Curry Thread

Here is my usual :

King Prawn Puree starter Vindaloo hot

Chicken Tikka Vindaloo or Lamb Passander with Mushroom rice

Keema Nan

Washed down with a few pints of Cobra

A few years ago i used to have all of my curries phall hot, which was great when getting friends to try some of my "new" dish
The missus then got me worried about stomach ulcers after a few bouts of severe heartburn and i haven't had one since

That reminds me of when i met my wife in Dublin 11 years ago. A few of us visited the only curry house for miles to be served by Irish guys wearing Turban's to make it look authentic

We are nearly crying with laughter now thinking about it

Re: The Curry Thread

Chinese Curry's don't count. There is no such thing as a Chinese Curry in my dialect

Talking Re: The Curry Thread

I adore curry

The curry I have really depends on my mood - sometimes I have a Chicken Vindaloo, sometimes a Chicken Tikka Massalla, sometimes a Chicken Madras, if I'm feeling really desperate I have a Chicken Tikka Biriani with Chicken Tikka Massalla
Usually have pilau rice, a peshwari or keema nan and a Bombay aloo side dish

God I'm salivating now!

Same for me.

I have to admit that over time a Jalfrezi has lost it's edge for heat, so once in a while I'll have a chicken Vindaloo, but TBH heat to one side for a moment, the Vindaloo is not as nice tasting as a Jalfrezi. So I often ask for a Jalfrezi with a bit more heat in it! MMmm.

Re: The Curry Thread

Chicken Madras, Pulau rice and a Peshwari naan, sometimes a Keema naan. Indian and Italian cuisines are my two absolute favourites!

Re: The Curry Thread

You cant beat an Afghan ( Pashtun ) kebab ( known as chapli kebab) with nan or "Peshawar parata" buttered chapati with mince in it.

If you ever get the chance to meet an Afghan cook as him to nock you up something special i am sure you guys would like it.

This combined with fresh ground chilli chutni and a glass or sour milk yoghurt known to the masses as "lassi"

Dude you have now entered heaven

I am thinking of running a curry postal making service for one month or something like that for next year xmas to raise money for St james Hospital.
LMK what you think.

Re: The Curry Thread

Had a curry last night and must say I'm a massive fan of ....

Mixed kebab starter (onion bhaji, chicken tikka, shami, sheekh kebab)
Mint yoghurt, onions, chutney
Chicken Tikka Muglai (mincemeat and egg)
Keema Nan
four cans of erm ..... Carling.


I sometimes prefer the starters to a main course and have a couple of them instead of a main. And also prefer a main with a Naan bread than loads of rice.
