Holy thread resurection Batman!

I searched everywhere for a curry recipe yesterday, took one look at this and though 'no, I need a faster, easier recipe'. But now I've actually read this, the one I made is pretty much identical. I did a lot of fine chopping of the chilli and ginger, pressed the garlic and the spices were already ground. Yum-o-matic!

Here was the last homemade I knocked up

Didn't get a photo of the sundries, starters or dips but I'll knock up my own thread for the 'complete works' when I'm suitably prepared



It's a nice cross between a tikka masala and pasanda made entirely from scratch Nearly Zero Fat & Salt content (bar a pinch in the naan mixture and the decorative single cream)

Best accompanied with the following music:


Popadum Preach - Madonna
Korma Chameleon - Culture Club
Bhaji Trousers - Madness
King Prawn Massala Drinks Are Free - Wham
Dansak Queen - Abba
Tikka Chance On Me - Abba
Tears On My Pilau - Kylie Minogue
Dansak on the Ceiling - Lionel Richie
Love me Tandoor - Elvis Presley
Bye Bye Balti - Bay City Rollers
Livin' Dhal - Cliff Richard
Raita Here, Raita Now - Fatboy Slim

My kitchen in my student pad up here is woefully short of just about everything, we don't even have a big stew pot yet cause my flat mates are too cheap to put money in on such "wasteful" things?! I was stuck with two pots in the oven the other day plastic handles double wrapped in foil hoping to christ they wouldn't melt

With that in mind i think you should recall what you used to make in your student days in an inadequate kitchen so i can replicate because i'm slowly running out of things to do or improvise...
I don't have a mortar/pestle and do ok now stop the excuses :d

Yeah LD you pansy!

That curry looks hugely pretentious.





I love it.

It tastes a hell of a lot better than it looks

I always feel curry dishes can look a bit 'uninspired' and as I was doing a romantic meal for my girlfriend I wanted it to look nice

Beautifully presented Jingo
I'm rubbish at presentation, too keen on eating it asap
I'll have to type up the curry I make which isn't as impressive as some (it uses shop bought curry paste ) but is very fast to make and delicious imo
