Topic: Chicken Jalfrezi with Taz Base

Thanks Steve, just seen the photo. Looks similar to what I do when I reduce it.

You're on a roll with these Taz curries. One of my favourite recipes too from this site.

Cheers,

Paul

Hi all,

Just to confirm that razors idea of cooking the veg with the first reduction is spot on.

thanks mate

Alan ;D

Cheers for that Stephen, going to have a go at this tomorrow using tikka chicken.
Would you recommend adding more salt, or has the recipe been edited to account for that?
Also is there much difference between Razors spice mix and BE's?  just I have a jar of Razors made up already.
Looking forward to cooking it now..put some Ravi Shankar on, a couple of cold beers and fill the kitchen with some beautiful aromas!! and get some more chapati practice in  ;D

I find that it is salty enough but if you want to add salt go ahead by all means - I'd be careful about adding too much and go by the usual rule of you can always add more but if you've added too much it is irretrievable.

As for Razor's spice base I really don't see why it can't be used - I've not used it (sorry Ray!) and if my memory serves me correct I think it contains a more complex mixture than the BE one which is vert similar to the Taz spice mix. Why not give it a go? It won't be the same as this recipe, just different and certainly tasty because Razor's recipes get good feedback.

Hi Coco,

I love this base and method.

As for using my spice mix, I do and it comes out a treat, though I would say that ;D

My spice mix was designed to compliment my own base with versatility in mind, hence, no chilli powder.

If you do decide to use my spice mix, be wary of adding extra salt, as it does contain it. Just add a pinch at a time until it's to your liking.

Razor's recipes get good feedback.

Kind words Steve, thankyou very much.

Just made this with the Rajver base and was spot on. Knocking out the BIR curry's alot lately and having some great results.

Glad you enjoyed RobinB, it looks spot on.
