How do you cook a real curry?
As you know im a curry lover :D without just buying a jar? Lad in lecture has said onions an ginger are the basis. But anymore ideas or recipes. Ta Si |
good lad :D i want one now lol
Si |
Yep, onions are a big part of it (it's the reduction of them that makes the 'sauce' aspect). Ghee as well (which is clarified butter and incredibly bad for you). Cooking a proper curry takes a looooong time.
Of course you have to make your own chapati and paratha as well :D |
|
yeah but how how how.
The link above didnt have the Kurma and Dupiaza(sp) im looking for Si |
curry takes a looooong time |
Chicken Korma
INGREDIENTS: 50g natural cashew nuts 3 tbsp sunflower or soya oil 2 bay leaves, crumbled 1 large onion, thinly sliced 1 garlic clove, crushed, or 2½ tsp garlic paste 2.5cm cube fresh root ginger, peeled and finely grated, or 2½ tsp ginger paste 1 tbsp coriander 1 tsp ground cumin ½ tsp ground turmeric ½ tsp chilli powder 8 chicken thighs, skinned 75g whole milk natural yoghurt, beaten 140ml single cream To garnish 1 tbsp toasted flaked almonds ½ tsp paprika 1 tsp salt, or to taste ¼ tsp freshly ground pepper Garlic Rice, to serve PREPARATION: 1. Put the cashews in a small bowl and pour over 100ml boiling water. Set aside for 15-20 minutes. 2. In a heavy-based pan with a tight-fitting lid, heat the oil over a medium heat. Add the bay leaves. Allow to sizzle for 15-20 seconds, then add the onion, garlic and ginger. Fry until the onions are soft and slightly brown (8-9 minutes). 3. Add the coriander, cumin, turmeric, chilli powder and pepper. Fry for 30 seconds. Add 50ml hot water. Stir until the water evaporates. 4. Add the chicken. Increase the heat to medium-high. Fry, stirring all the time, until the chicken changes colour. 5. Add the yoghurt, salt and 50ml hot water. Stir and mix thoroughly. Cover the pan tightly, reduce the heat to low and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. 6. Put the cashews, along with the water in which they were soaked, into a blender. Add the cream and purée until smooth. Add to the pan. 7. Cover again and simmer for a further 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally (you can simmer uncovered to reduce the sauce if necessary), then remove from the heat and transfer the korma to a serving dish. 8.Garnish with the toasted almonds and sprinkle the paprika over the top. Serve with Garlic Rice. PREP/COOK INFORMATION: Prep time: 45 minutes Cook time: 1 hour 15 minutes Serves: 4 NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION: Calories: 538 Fat: 38 grams |
I think you'll find he has a lot of it pre-prepared.
PS: Korma and Dopiaza? You're having a laugh, aren't you? That's not proper curry. |
Vr4 that's making me feel hungry
don't forget for the authentic lads night out curry for when you are all pissed up and insulting the waiters try gobbing in it or shooting ya load in it :D |
I like tasful curries, Anyone can eat a hot one. But i like to appreciate the flavour's now
Si |
I always do curry from scratch now, never bought sauces they always overdo it with cumin and chilli
Sometimes get a takeaway but we find we actually prefer mine to the takeaway..maybe it's the cum in it....yikes |
Hello
I'm currently working in Bangalore (coming home tomorrow thankfully), and the answer is take as many bones as you can, cover them in sauce so that you can't taste anything and then spend the next four days in the toilet "appreciating" it. Steve. |
lol thats why i go for taste not chilli power :D
|
at my old company virtually the entire development team were Indians and they told me that in India people don't like really hot ones and that the mega hot one have been created for British tastes
|
lol yeah i went out down the Quay side and went to a curry house with r lass.
Got a Jalfrazzi, bit into about my 4th chilli and it killed me :( it was the hottest damm thing id ever had, burnt my lips , her lips ;) my tounge. The waiters had to get my pint after pint water and sugar, yogurt you name it :D got 25% off the bill though because i couldnt take another bite Si |
this is how I do mine
2 onions chopped then fried in Ghee with ginger and a whole bulb of chopped garlic when soft and slightly brown add/stir in 4 desert spoons of curry powder turn off heat add chicken and chopped peppers, stir in and then juice of 1 lemon leave for 10 minutes add tin of tomatos and half pint of chicken stock and handful of corainder leaf - job done cook for 40 minutes |
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet :D:D:D:D its a toss up between steak and curry saturday now :D
Id buy one on the way home, but at the dentist 10 tomorrow :( |
The best curries are when you cook them and then leave them in the fridge for about 5 days to mature. Looks disgusting cold but once heated it up it has a nice thick consistency and the flavour is so much better.
Hot curries are just for people showing off. Much better to savour the flavour IMHO. Passanda, normal "curry" and Dopiaza's being my fave. Simon. |
U need authentic curry powder and herbs, none of the jar/pre-packed cr&p!
|
i tried this home cooking malarky, never again!!
it probably costs more, is a lot of hassle (washing up etc) and tastes 10 times worse than your local takeway. Given its £3.70 for the takeaway and they have a massiv choice , stick with the experts who do it for a living |
How to cook a real curry:
Pick up phone, dial 01721 724455, ask for chicken bhuna, mushroom rice, sag aloo, keema naan, and whatever the wife's having. Wait 10 minutes, and drive round the corner to pick it up. Eat, and enjoy. :D :p |
2nd time round? Try 152nd..... ;)
|
