Madrasandy's Vindaloo
« on: July 01, 2014, 08:41 PM »
Here's my recipe for a Vindaloo, its based on the same principles as my madras experiment-

Update by George: madrasandy asked if we could "delete this recipe as I have re-written the recipe with the changes from my notes. It is under the title of 'Ultimate Vindaloo'. Sorry for the mix up"

But due to the number of replies, which I'm reluctant to delete, I've chosen instead to update this recipe in line with madrasandy's instructions, and I will then lock the thread so any further debate can be held on the new thread.


1 Piece of Cinnamon
2 Green Cardamons
2 Dried Kashmiri Chilli's (chopped/broken into small pieces)
1 Chef spoon oil
1 TBLS Garlic puree
1 1/2 tsp Mix Powder
3 tsps chilli paste (chilli paste - hot green chillis blended in a little water)
1 tsp Deggi Mirch
1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
1 TBLS Apple Cider Vinegar
1 tsp Sugar
1 tsp Methi
1/2 tsp Salt
Good Squirt of Lemon Dressing
6 TBLS Blended Toms
350ml Base Gravy
Pre-cooked Chicken

Yep, looks good; although I would recommend the use of white pepper instead.

Interesting.  I detest white pepper with a vengeance, but am quite happy to (e.g.,) grind black peppercorns onto smoked salmon, or use ground black pepper in the preparation of chicken piri-piri.  Why do you recommend white pepper, DO ?

White pepper complements and enhances the sharpness of the lemon and vinegar.

In another context, black pepper is good... like meatballs. :D

On edit: Just to clarify, I'm sure the vindaloo wil be fandabadoozy either way!!!
