Hi Floyd,Sorry mate, never heard of Handi dishes but, I'm going down the mile Saturday night. I'll do some fishin for ya Is there anything similar that you could compare it to?RayP.S,Are you a fellow manc by any chance ;D
FloydI'm not sure if this will help you or not but I am looking at one of my cookery books called Shezad Husain's Easy Indian Cookery. It is said to feature Balti and Haandi Recipes with Haandi referring to the cooking pot which I can best describe as a wide urn shaped clay pot with handles on the sides.I would guess that your chicken dish might not be cooked in such a pot but you are looking to replicate that recipe.There are several chicken dishes in this book:Haandi Chicken with Pineapple ChunksMughlai Haandi Chicken in a Rich SauceHaandi Chicken cooked in Green Spices and HerbsHaandi Chicken with LeeksHaandi Chicken with French BeansHaandi Chicken with Whole Fried OnionsHaandi Chilli Spiced ChickenI will happily reproduce them here if you think anything sounds close.
Interesting....it's the first time I've seen a menu refer to using "special oil" (i.e. "rogan josh - the characteristics of the dish are derived from....fried in special oil")
