The school summer holidays are all but over and I've completely failed to build up a stock pile of top fives to kick start me on the weekly routine again. Think it could be a while before I've found enough time to get something decent written but I'm fed up with seeing the Wombles at the top of the page so here's a quicky on my favourite currys.
1. Chicken Dhansak - My new favourite curry. Chicken and lentils in a rich spicy sauce that gives a medium heat and slightly sweet taste.
2. Chicken Jalfrezi - Former number one which is about as hot as I can take. You can at least leave a few chillis if you're struggling.
3. Chicken Korai - Sizzling sauted chicken with onions. Good choice if you don't fancy a sauce.
4. Lamb Rogan Josh - It's not often I don't pick Chicken but this is a classic curry that is great for a bit of a change.
5. Chicken Tikka Masala - The first proper curry dish I ever tried.

Dave, try a 'Methi Chicken - or Methi Gosht (mutton) methi is the leaf from the fenugreek plant, but it adds so much flavour. Not hot at all - but lots of authentic flavour. If it is not shown on the menu, ask if they will make one...
ReplyDeleteI love dhansak too! However, you havent tried my own lamb curry! ;-)
ReplyDeleteEd - Cheers for the tip, I'll definitely give that a go.
ReplyDeleteMeena - Do you deliver? :o)
