Hi all again

Listen your coconut block is better than any cocnut powder, flour or milk for that matter so far as flavour is concerned.

That bag is simply mislabelled due no doubt to language/translation issues.

Stick with the block Emin-j its by far superior.

But do buy a bag of that stuff if you find it and let your daughter try a korma made with it, I bet you get the same answer from her.

Good luck with it anyway

Cheers all

Hi Razor

No worries, no debate 

Ive read this type of confusion in other recipes too, and it is confusion on their part.

Whilst a recipe sometimes calls for the use of coconut milk and powder, the reason being is that just using the equivalent in milk only, might render a dish too thin and runny, so using part powder retains the desired consistency and achieves the degree of coconut flavour required

I lived in Thailand for some years and as Im sure you know Coconut milk is used extensively in Thai cuisine.

whilst the majority of Thais use canned coconut milk as its so cheap out there, coconut milk powder is also visibly widely available in their food stores too since its is not as weighty or as bulky as storing cans and a little cheaper too.
But Ive never seen coconut flour being either as visible in these stores in the main food sections, but rather it was usually found in the ' baking / desert section ' which is what most Thais use the flour for as well as dessicated coconut.

Cheers everyone

I'm trying to figure out the best way to cook chicken tikka to get as close to "tandoor" as possible.

A) gas barbecue
B) oven grill
C) oven bake at highest temperature

I'm also wondering should the tikka skewers be touching the grill/rack, or suspended (not touching metal)

Wondering if anyone can definitively say one way works better than others.

Interested too if anyone has tried one of those small home clay tandoors.

Thanks
Josh

just go to Blades recipe AND method

BEST EVER FOR YEARS

Simple instructions

HUGE results NEVER bettered on this site END OF

Too late now to give u a link

Just type Blade in searh and it should come

100% better than ANY BIR uve ever ate  :

Yeah maybe it is expensive in Waitrose but it only costs a few quid in Selfridges!

This product is completely not MSG, its composition is entirely natural chemicals unlike MSG which is a lab produced chemical.

It sounds like it will help produce that deep savoury taste we all are chasing, a bit like Bunjarra but without the hassle of having to make it.

Hi Guys

Has anyone seen this one?

Its live 6 days a week

Click on this link below, click on webcam button, when it opens up then right click on the stream and click go to fullscreen.

You can really watch it all really closeup!

I also note they take orders live over the internet, so if anyone was living nearby a curry of your choice could be ordered and then watch specific ingredients being used?

Also their website says locals are welcome into the kitchen to watch their meals being cooked first hand!

Surely we must have a member somewhere nearby?
