Nice one JB, I've always said we make it to complicated. I asked a chef I know (jokingly I have to say) about the maillard reaction and his explanation went like this......'What???????'  ;D

Just got back from another night in the takeaway,had a great time as usual.It was quite busy so I had the chance to watch the chef cook an amazing variety of dishes.As well as washing the Chef's pans between orders I actually took a few telephone orders when it got a bit hectic...I suppose every budding BIR chef has to start somewhere!!  I think they're quite impressed with me,so much so that they want me to go in every Sunday to help out!!

I helped the chef cook the first part of the gravy,usual stuff...about 30 onions,4 carrots,red pepper,green pepper,salt and turmeric.After about an hour it was blended.They do the bhagar,or second stage the day after,next time I go I'll try and watch them do that.

I also watched the chef prepare a large pot of pre cooked veg,and I also saw them prepare a batch of pilau rice.Under the guidance of the chef I cooked myself a chicken tikka pathia,I got the nod of approval from the chef,have to say it was very tasty indeed!!
