Pictures of Your Curries / Re: Last Curries of 2018

Thanks BAJ! I have never used paneer but it is something I must try. I haven't even eaten a paneer dish in a restaurant. Yes they all seemed to enjoy it and I am happy to say there was a little chicken Pathia left for me the next day.

All the best

Pictures of Your Curries / Chicken Vindaloo and Chicken Passanda! First curries of the year.

I had a tray of base sauce left in the freezer and really fancied a Chicken Vindaloo tonight. I had almost forgotten what a nice dish this is. I normally add a squirt of tomato ketchup to my vindaloo but I didn't have any so I added a few teaspoons of cider vinegar and a little jaggery instead. I also used 2 crushed kashmiri chillies, 2 finely chopped finger chillies, kashmiri mirch and deggi mirch for the heat in the curry. Lovely! Apparently the Passanda was ok too.

Happy new year everyone! A bit of a late upload but here are the last curries I made in 2018. I had to cook some food for vegetarians who wanted to try a curry with meat substitutes so I made 2 curries using Quorn pieces. Top left going clockwise; Quorn Curry, Chicken Pathia, Quorn Pathia, Mushroom Bhaji, Bombay Aloo, Chicken Passanda and Mixed Vegetable Curry, served with Pillau Rice. There was very little leftover for breakfast sadly.

All the best

Great-l0oking curry, SB, particularly given your lack of recent practice. Your curries always looked excellent and this one, albeit using a commercial base, resembles your previous offerings. Nice one!

Thanks Naga! I think once you get used to how to cook a curry it's like riding a bike, although it's been even longer since I done that. ;D I must get around to cooking some more base, always nice knowing exactly went into your curry

All the best

Very nice looking curry there SR. Plenty of oily goodness on the surface of that one.

Thanks Livo! Yes there was a bit more oil than I expected, the shaheen onion masala is more oily than the base I make but it certainly does no harm to the flavour of this curry. It's been a while since I made a curry so I ended up scoffing the lot ;D

Hi,
Had some leftover roast chicken so I decided to have a go at this dish after seeing the pictures. I used a sachet of Shaheen onion masala as I have no base of my own at the moment. The recipe I followed was more like Naga's version than the original recipe. I have to say it's a very nice curry, though I have never ordered one from a takeaway or restaurant. I reduced the amount of sugar as 3 tsp would be too sweet for me I think.
