Lets Talk Curry / Re: Naan bread
« on: March 28, 2020, 11:10 AM »


I also highly rate the School of Artisan Food naan.  It is different to the UK deluxe naan but just as good in my opinion.

Thanks Livo,

You've given me a fine project while in what is effectively lockdown...

Thats the second recommendation this week for that. I'll have to have a look. Hopefully naans on the go this week

Talk About Anything Other Than Curry / Re: What

First attempt at pizza this year. I was a little timid so overtopped but still tasty

Still looks good Romain.  Pizzas on my 'lockdown' list as I've not really cooked any at home for a couple of years. Simples my favourite, sauce, cheese, fresh basil.

I really want to do some Lahmacun (turkish Pizza) as well as its really nice. I used lime juice and coriander on mine the last time and it was lovely. Rick Stein has a video on them although theres plenty recipes on the internet.

 Everything else is good to go but the tin!

The last few I've done, I've just done in foil on the BBQ and unwrapped halfway to add a bit colour. Last one was a course texture as missus prefers it like that(I think its like meatloaf  :confusing3: ). I like mine blitzed in the processor to give it that friday night kebab texture when cooked.

And this seems like a perfect time to try out loveitspicy's Doner-in-a-Tin - the one I said I would do years ago and never quite got around to it! Well, if I can buy minced lamb in the rapidly-emptying shops, that is!

I picked some up some lamb mince in Aldi last week for home made doner. I have used beef mince before with good results. Its just about scratching that itch that most men seem to have :umy: :umy: :smile2: :smile2:

And let me know what its like as i'm always up for some homemade kebab. Most of the ones I've done lately have involved some doner mixed spices from various places. Still nice though.

Grow Your Own Spices and Herbs / Re: curry leaf import

Reading up on the curry leaf ban, they were indeed banned from India (amongst other things )in 2014 due to the pesticides being used. Special sanctions were imposed that allowed import as long as the imported leaves had been tested and came with certification and health certificates. The 2018 bit was a review and the ban with sanctions has continued.

The topic was of interest to me as back in 2013 Newcastle had a Spice festival and hundreds of people suffered food poisoning due to raw curry leaves in a chutney.

Much more informative than newspaper reports are the horses mouth.

Sainsburys still sell fresh ones .

And I'm sure the Indian suppliers I use still do them in Newcastle.

I believe this is the same gentleman. Of course I could be wrong ?

You'd be right.
