    Slow cooked chicken jalfrezi

    This ones really authentic and full of flavor. The pieces of green pepper are to die for in this sauce..................


    Ingredients
    Serves: 6
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    5 cardamom pods
    8 whole cloves
    3 bay leaves
    1 teaspoon mustard seeds
    3 onions, chopped
    6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    675g chicken pieces, skin removed
    2 tablespoons grated root ginger
    1 teaspoon turmeric
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    6 medium tomatoes, chopped
    2 teaspoons ground coriander
    1 teaspoon chilli powder, or to taste
    salt and pepper to taste
    3 green peppers, cut into strips
    1 teaspoon garam masala
    chopped fresh coriander, to garnish

    Method
    Prep:25min › Cook:1hr30min › Ready in:1hr55min
    Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the cardamom pods, whole cloves, bay leaves and mustard seeds. The mustard seeds will start to pop; at this point, add the chopped onions and garlic. Cook until onion is soft.
    Add the chicken pieces to the pan and brown on all sides. Whilst browning, add the root ginger, turmeric, cumin, salt and pepper.
    Once the chicken is browned, add the chopped tomatoes, ground coriander and chilli powder.
    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and simmer for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, add the green pepper. Continue to simmer for another 30 minutes.
    Taste and season as needed with salt and additional chilli. Add the garam masala and simmer a further 20 minutes. (Remove the lid and simmer uncovered if the mixture is too watery.)
    Before serving, garnish with chopped fresh coriander.



    I recommend this curry to the house.[B][/B]

    Chicken Dopiaza

    This one is for those that can cook. Want to impress with a dish far better than the usual takeaway? The Chicken and Onions melt in the mouth. The fusion of the spices in the sauce will leave you on the edge of oblivion and on a good night could lead to a possible shag.................



    First prepare the sauce.




    Now prepare the Chicken.



    Now make Chicken Dopiaza



    Bon appetit.

    Chicken Dhansak.

    Tonight we had Chicken Dhansak. Its a 4 stage preparation so not for the feint hearted. Its basically a Chicken curry blended with Tarka Dal. This is restaurant quality.
    First make the Tarka Dal.



    This is the fried spices just before they are mixed with the lentils and it was so good I could eat that on its own. This is the best Tarka Dal I have ever tasted.



    Now prepare the sauce.



    Now prepare the Chicken.



    Now make Chicken Dhansak.



    I commend this curry to the house, enjoy.

    Choose your base sauce recipe carefully. I made a batch which called for quite a bit of black pepper and whilst it isn't hot, it bites the back of your throat quite unpleasantly.

    Some different books, just let me know what curry you are after............

  32. #82
    I know we've mentioned this a few times but it really is the best curry ever!!

    It reminds me of a very high quality jalfrezi.

    Lucky- have you made the pilau rice out the special book? It's lovely!!

    I made a big batch of base sauce yesterday so I'm good to go for a while ;) not sure what to try next! I made the masala but it was a bit sweet and creamy like a korma for my taste!

    Paneer Bhurji

    I had this in my local Indian restaurant in Twickenham last week and decided to have a go. It's ridiculously easy.

    Paneer bhurji is a delightful and spicy paneer dish. Paneer bhurji is a quick and easy recipe to make, made from crumbled paneer simmered in spicy tomato gravy. Paneer bhurji tastes great with roti, paratha, or even with regular bread! This is also makes a good stuffing for dosas or vegetable Frankie rolls.

    Recipe will serve 2.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 cup paneer cut in small pieces
    • 1 cup tomatoes chopped
    • 1/2 cup green peas, I am using frozen green peas
    • 2 tablespoons oil
    • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
    • 2 bay leaves
    • 1 tablespoon finely chopped green chilies
    • 2 teaspoon coriander powder (dhania)
    • 1/2 tsp chili powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
    • 1/4 teaspoon garam masala
    • 2 tablespoons finely chopped coriander (dhania)


    Method

    1. Soak the paneer in hot water with 1/4 teaspoon of salt for five minutes. Drain the water and crumbled the paneer. This process will make the paneer soft, if you are using the fresh paneer skip this step. Set aside.
    2. Heat the oil in sauce pan over medium heat; after oil is moderately hot add cumin seeds.
    3. After the seeds crack add green peas, and green chili stir for about one minute. Add tomatoes, coriander, salt, sugar and red chili powder, stir and mix well. Cover the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes till the tomatoes and peas becomes soft.
    4. Add paneer stir and cook for 1-2 minutes. Don’t cook the paneer for a long time as paneer will lose the softness. If it is too dry add few spoons of water. Lastly add chopped coriander leaves to paneer bhurji and mix.
    5. Serve paneer bhurji with rotis, plain parathas or with a toast.


    Notes, if you are using the paneer bhurji for stuffing then don’t the water, bhurji should be dry in texture.
    http://www.manjulaskitchen.com/paneer-bhurji/

    Apparently it's quite popular as a breakfast dish which makes sense - it has a pleasant amount of spice without being a real burner.

    As someone who grew up with Indian food its very interesting reading the various stories and recipes. Most if not all do follow what I'm used to in technique and steps. I've become more interested in finding 'quicker' recipes and the one above is a good example of it. Essentially if you follow a more 'hindu' style which prohibits onions and garlic the curries can be made quite quickly. In that vein I saw this on Sunday Brunch Channel 4 and its a nice dish. The use of mustard adds a depth of flavour that's not too common:

    Bengali Prawn and Pea Curry with Black Cardamom Dill Rice
    Serves 4
    Ingredients


    300-400g of peeled king prawns
    2 tins chopped peeled tomato
    1 small jar Colmans English Mustard paste (use 2 tsp)
    2 green finger chilies
    2 tsp nigella seeds
    1 tsp turmeric powder
    1/2 tsp chili powder
    Juice of 1/2 lemon
    Salt
    1-2 tsp brown sugar
    1 cup petit pois-frozen or fresh
    Vegetable oil
    1 bunch fresh coriander for the garnish
    1 sliced red chili for garnish
    For the rice
    2 cups Basmati white rice
    4 cups water
    4 black cardamom pods
    1 tsp cumin seeds
    1 bunch fresh dill
    Vegetable oil
    Pinch salt
    Method for the rice
    1. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a deep saucepan - add cumin seeds and cardamom and wait for them to fizz- now add the rice and toss into the oil.
    2. Add in the water and simmer until almost dry.
    3. Toss in the chopped dill and a pinch of salt and stir through.
    4. Tight lid on and heat off-Wait for 10 minutes while you cook the prawn curry
    For the prawn curry
    1. In a large wok style nonstick pan, add two tbsp oil and heat. Add nigella seed and green chili pierced.
    2. Add tomato, sugar, turmeric, chili and simmer, use water to loosen if need be but allow to caramelise and become rich.
    3. Add the mustard paste and seasoning along with the peas mix well and then add prawns and simmer for minutes until just cooked.
    4. Add a squeeze of lemon. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add a little chopped fresh coriander.
    5. Garnish with fresh coriander and red chili.

    Glad you enjoyed it - it really is an easy recipe. I've experimented with this base further. I'm a big daal fan and so always looking for new ways to make daal. What I did was replace the nigella seeds with cumin seeds and 3/4 cook the daal before adding it into the tomato base (same time as you would the prawns) and cook through. Delicious.

    Continuing the quick curry theme, came across this recipe - coincidentally also from Sunday Brunch. Key is to get the onions to a lovely soft texture. This really was a stunning dish, loved it and smells amazing too.

    'Simple Kerala Fish Curry Recipe'

    Serves 4
    Ingredients
    4 green cardamom pods
    1 long thin green chilli
    1 onion
    1 tbsp coconut oil
    4 cloves
    5cm piece of cinnamon stick
    10 fresh or dried curry leaves
    2 tsp ginger–garlic paste
    1/2 tsp ground black pepper
    1/2 tsp ground turmeric
    400ml coconut milk
    150ml water
    4 fish fillets, such as sea bass, sea bream fillets, pollock or whiting, 90–100g each, skin on
    1/2 lime sea salt
    Method
    1. Assemble all the ingredients before you begin. You need a large non-stick sauté or frying pan.
    2. Crush the cardamom pods to loosen the seeds. Remove the stalk from the chilli, if necessary, then cut the chilli in half lengthways. Skin, halve and thinly slice the onion.
    3. Melt the coconut oil over a medium-high heat in the pan. Add the cardamom pods and their seeds, the cloves and cinnamon, and stir until the spices crackle. Add the green chilli, onion and curry leaves, and continue stirring until the onion is just lightly coloured.
    4. Turn the heat to medium. Add the ginger-garlic paste and stir it into the oil for 30 seconds. Add the black pepper and turmeric and stir for a further 30 seconds to cook the spices. Watch closely so they do not burn.
    5. Stir in the coconut milk and water. Season with salt and bring to the boil, then leave to simmer, uncovered, while you prepare the fish.
    6. Cut each fish fillet into 4cm slices and season the slices with salt. Stir them directly to the curry and leave to simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the flesh starts to curl slightly. Take care not to over-cook the fish.
    7. Squeeze 1 teaspoon lime juice into the curry to cut the richness and adjust the seasoning with salt, if necessary.

    North Indian slow cooked chicken

    Firstly I fancied one of those cast iron casserole dishes for ages and thought that the french are taking the piss (as usual) at £160.00 starting price. Anyway did a bit of research and found people raving about the quality of this Chinese copy so got mine for £30.. and its cooks lovely. Nice colour as well and a 2 year warranty. Weighs a tonne.



    See the recipe below. I used chicken quarters and I got my assistant to blitz the liquid, when all was cooked, with a blender. I cooked on the hob, no 1, for about 2 hours. Then let it cool and into the fridge overnight. Then reheated for an hour or so next day. The cast iron job really does cook well and I recommend its use not just for Indian dishes.



    Here it is on the second day.

    What a cracking thread!

    I used to make more curry than now, and used to make up a huge wok of curry puree as a base.

    The book I use (to this day) is the Sainsburys Curry Club Recipe Book (By Pat Chapman, then Chairman of the Curry Club)

    Not sure I would waste prawns on an ultra-hot curry, mind- chicken or turkey would do for that.
