Hi, after a mini break down dorset way, i had the pleasure of stumbling across this indian restaurant. I would highly recommend a visit. I tried different dishes each night, and all were great, with that taste of true BIR cookery. The dopiaza was awesome. The portions were quite large and they always gave free popadoms and salad. If you happen to be taking a holiday in that part of the country check these guys out, they know the score! Weymouth is also splendid !

Welcome aboard ! This site is why they invented the world wide web!

Great pics. that red masalla mix looks interesting. i bet that stuff tastes good just by itself. My guess is that it could include some pataks kashmiri masalla paste. That could be whats in the large pataks jars on the shelf.

If you love lots of thick sauce with a curry then i feel the base approach is a must. Its also what this site is all about. if you dont like making the base sauce then you are probably best sticking to madur jaffrey cook books, which are pretty good. I think the time making the base is time well spent (although quite knackering) but hey its my exercice for the week. chopping up a lorry load of onions !! and spending half of saturday cleaning up the mess!  but its worth it when i finally munch out!

Spices / Who uses black kalonji onion seeds?
« on: May 30, 2008, 05:46 PM »
Hi folks, just brought some black onion seeds. haven't got a clue how to use them. anyone got any tips on getting good results from these types of seed? Cheers DD

i buy it in huge bags too. once its frozen its really easy to break up. i dont think the taste is compromised much after freezing (if at all). although its nice to use fresh. I now use cori extensivly, as all BIR curries i buy seem to feature that fresh cori flavour. especially rogan josh, bhuna, some dansaks, and diopiaza

a whole cori plant from sainsbury is not much. about 6 8 inch stalks, and a small handful of leafs. you can freeze fresh cori and just wack it in frozen for the last 10  mins or so. dont overcook it or it all vanishes ,

Hi, Bobby, i had a sneaky suspicion I wouldn't be the only person on this site who loves that devilishly tasty stuff. Its making me hungry just thinking about it!
