Hi jb. Az said he normally used frozen. The manager in spices said the chef used fresh but then prepared it for freezing so not sure what category this comes under. As for the tins, are we talking spinach puree or the leaf stuff? Never used the leaves but have used the puree along with fresh in SS chicken saag. Very nice. On its own its very strong and quite off-putting to look at. I know it's quite popular in some authentic indian recipes. Not sure if any of this helps with your dilema though
Did you have the opportunity to practice cooking individual portions like in a BIR?Have your home curries improved through the experience, if so how? Great work, Bob
Very impressive as always,976bar can I ask what sort of spinach you use for your sag aloo? fresh,frozen or tinned? Or for that matter does anyone know what restaurants actually use?I have an upcoming curry feast and I've always used fresh.I can't imagine restaurants use fresh,once cooked the stuff goes down to next to nothing and they would go go through tons of the stuff.I always see these tins of spinach so they must obviously be used but then I'm sure I remember Someone on this forum saying it's vile stuff and to avoid it.
Great stuff 976. Have you got a good recipe for the vegi samosas you did.CheersSteve
Do you make your own g/g puree in the Holloway kitchens, Bob, or use bottled ? I ask because I have recently switched to bottled (two jars, with preservative, one of each for ratio adjustment) and really cannot detect any deterioration in the quality of the final dish. I know there ought to be, I just can't detect it !** Phil.
Stirling work Bob, the selection pots look great. Like yourself I find most vegetarian dishes not to my liking. Indian food though, has allowed me to enjoy vegetarian dishes. Those selection pots look great and I would have happily devoured one despite it being devoid of meat.
