I followed Stephen Lindsay's recipe and its not bad at all (except for the waistline)

Next time I will add more finger chillies and less honey (I used 2 tbsp)

...and naan breads with yoghurt and without yeast, cooked on a tawa

« on: June 06, 2012, 05:29 PM »

A couple of months back 1 of the kids thought they would be helpfull and wash my wok while I was having my dinner.

Its took a lot of cooking to get it to start to look good again.

....oh, and I made another base...

Talk About Anything Other Than Curry / Steak! How do you like yours?

« on: February 29, 2012, 09:18 PM »

I just cooked myself a cheap cut of steak and it was one of the best I have had ever.
Morisons 'beefsteak', had a nice marbling and about 3/4" thick. ?2.46
Seasoned with salt, black pepper and garlic granules and fried, after I fried the onions, for 1.5 mins per side, seasoning the second side just before I flipped it.
Served with onions and 'double cooked' chips, fried in lard.... it was awesome.

Now, I have had sirloin, t-bone, fillet and rib eye before and I can honestly say that this was as good as any of those in terms of flavour, tenderness and juicyness.

I cant be done with additional sauces, if its cooked right its served in its own sauce

So whats your prefered cut and style?
