Re: Making Indian restaurant/take away style curry at home
tea the other night
Naan breads ala the Mrs, chana saag (chickpea and spinach curry done to a rogan josh recipe) and onion bhaji by me
The last few curries have been that full of flavour we wanted to see if we'd miss meat in them!...........No! This was delicious! There was enough bhaji mix and curry left over to do the next nights tea as well! RESULT!

There's a great book available by Camellia Panjabi about authentic Indian food. 50 Greatest Curries, I think it's called. Even better than the restaurant style curries.

Here it is: http://cr0.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=3869.0
Seriously, It's as good as (and better than) lots of the Dhansaks I've had in restaurants and take aways. Make sure you make the Dhal that is suggested. This is what makes it. I've frozen portions of it for future Dhansaks. Use the spice mixes as suggested too. Quite a bit of preparation but you'll have everything for next time. I use the Saffron curry base.
Give it a go. You'll be chuckling to yourself at how good it is!

Re: Making Indian restaurant/take away style curry at home
Mmmmmmmmm. Which one is that?
Re: Making Indian restaurant/take away style curry at home
It was the Kushi Base and ABC Balti - although it was more like a Tikka as I used tandori massala rather than curry powder in the final dish.floydmeddler wrote:Mmmmmmmmm. Which one is that?

I made a really nice Dopiaza too from the base last week.
Tonight's offering is CA's Sheek kebabs....
