My favourite dish of this type is the one sometimes sold by Morrisons supermarket - chilled food. It's delicious

Here's the item I refer to as one of my all time favourites, made by Noon Products Ltd (market leader) for Morrisons. It's 400g of curry too, and not bulked out with rice, as with many of these chilled food dishes. I also provide a scan of the ingredients in case they are of interest in any attempt to perfect this dish. Best try the Morrisons one first, though, to see if it suits your palate.

UPDATE: here they are via photobucket - less desirable than being hosted here, I would have thought, but at least photobucket hosting usually works:

God CA. It must reaaaallly be burning you up inside.

Let's see, you were forced out of being a moderator. You were forced to air your often manic views on the forum instead of the cowardly way you used to air them, i.e. in PMs and rapidly edited posts (to remove the offensive stuff). Utter coward.

And yet you still keep it going eh?

And now you are contradicting every forum 'rule' that you previously claimed to live by. Utterly pathetic.

You got what you deserved.

Go get some therapy CA, then come back and make a positive contribution to the forum.

Oh, and pick your rattle up on the way out!   ;D

How did it get out to Portugal? Do Morrisons have supermarkets out there? Are you talking about exactly the same dish? I would't have recommended this product unless I thought it was very good. It's certainly not tasteless. Neither is it a recipe, of course. Nevertheless, I think a list of ingredients for such a product can be useful.

I've had a couple of those in this country, but they were chicken chilli masala. I hate to think just how much of that toxic colouring went into them.

I didn't notice anything like that! I must get another one to (a) enjoy and (b) take a photo. Shame is, they don't always have the Saag Chicken one in stock.

I don't know how it is I've never thought of ordering saag chicken in a BIR. I do like BIR saag aloo, though.

Sorry George I was referring to BIR curries rather than the Morrisons' ones, and I think that's probably what mickdabass was referring to too.

Hi fellas,

Not really a fan of supermarket curries/indian dishes but, looking at the ingredients, there doesn't seem to be anything to worry about here from a health point of view.

Not sure what 'paprika extract' is to be honest, but I'm guesing it's some kind of oil extracted from a pepper.  Citric acid, obviously found in citrus fruits, so it seems to be a decent list of ingredients as far as I can see!

Ray :)

Really, guys, you should give this specific product- Morrisons Saag Masala - a try. I think it's delicious and, if you disagree, it will prove that some of us are on a different wavelength!
