BOF Posted February 17, 2012 Moderator Share Posted February 17, 2012 You'd have thought the Indian's would have knocked them into shapeYeah. Imagine my surprise when it turns out the Indians actually used a bit of sticky tape and some twine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted February 17, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'm making a stupidly hot curry this evening, I'm hoping it will turn out well (I'm not so sure as my curries are normally awesome but I've already started on the Tesco Finest Oak Matured Still Cider). Other than that, I'm giving the flat a little bit of a spring clean as my houseguest will be coming for a month again next week. Rock n Roll.

BOF Posted February 17, 2012 Moderator Share Posted February 17, 2012 Putting Tesco Finest Oak Matured Still Cider before all other tasks seems a sensible decision to me. I can see absolutely no problems with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethRDR Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Recipe please. Always nice to see how others have a go at a home cuzza. It's not even worthy of being called a recipe to be honest, I just mix a load of cheap lamb mince with garam masala and ground coriander leaves, roll them into large balls, fry 'em and then cook them in a Sharwoods Jalfrezi sauce. Basically one step up from a microwave meal. :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekka Posted February 17, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted February 17, 2012 Well my recipe which usually turns out to be a stonking curry is as follows: (I haven't included timings as it's a bit of tasting this, bit of tasting that..). It isn't really "traditional" either -lightly fry 3 garlics, chopped with a smidgen of low fat butter (I say smidgen, more like half a small block) -when golden brown, add in chopped onions -when onions are nicely golden it's time for the fun part: add in chopped ginger, chopped fiery hot chilli, bit of cayenne pepper, tumeric, cinnamon (teeny tiny amount), roasted cumin, dab of mustard, big splash of curry powder. -give a good few minutes before adding chopped tomatoes, potatoes and meat of your choice (I prefer it on the bone) - give it a good stir and let it bubble away for a good while - check juices - I usually add in some water with some oxo cubes -let it bubble away and add in anything extra you want (I go for carrot, aubergine, mushrooms and whatever else I've got lying around) - let it bubble and suck up the awesome smell - let it bubble away and give it a taste - not hot enough, add in more curry powder - do not forget to add salt! EDIT: Oh, and bear in mind that I usually make a huge pot of the stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted February 17, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted February 17, 2012 Tonight I will do very little, probably spark up the 360 and listen to some podcasts I need to catch up with, and the food will be about the only thing that can get cooked in this house without issue, which will be bacon sarnies (we've already had a fry-up this week). Tomorrow, off to work, then sod all... I'm thinking about seeing anyone is free to do something on the night because... ...I have Sunday off for the first time in months. Shit, as usual.

leemond2008 Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 I have never got the things with podcasts, what do you actually listen to? I have tried them before but never ever found one that I would think ''yeah i'll listen to that every week'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried them before but never ever found one that I would think ''yeah i'll listen to that every week'' I download Frank Skinners, Dave Gormans and Rhod Gilberts, religiously. I listen to them on the way to work on the mornings, I can't listen to music first thing for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 17, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted February 17, 2012 There's a whole thread for them in here somewhere. My weekly ones are "the complete guide to everything" "Football Weekly" "The football ramble" "The Tuesday Club" (It's an arsenal podcast, but it's hilarious, so sue me) but there's dozens of others that I dip in and out of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
