Hi Ed
At one time Kasoori Methi used to go into just about every dish. Part of the Bengali Bhuna style of cooking.
Not so much these days, Chef Dependant, but still an essential part of BIR Chefs work table.

I just wondered from your posts, Chewy. You seem to go on a lot about Bangladeshi cuisine. Would you care to elaborate, from your experience, why Bangladeshi is better than other dishes?

Can anyone else let me know if they use methi in their madras, ignore the off topic posts.
