The Ultimate Curry Resource

**luckywatch** · 31st October 2016, 18:28

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.

Help! I can’t find the recipe and am really keen to try it as it has been praised so much. Does anyone have the link?

My home made Thai Red Chicken curry including the paste from scratch. Simple, tasty and healthy.

I remember a few years ago, someone posted what they said was the ultimate curry recipe. I seem to remember it was lamb or beef, and made in a slow cooker. Does anyone remember it?

I think you’re referring to Jon’s (b11ocx) beef madras recipe? Page 4 of The Recipe Thread.

I’ve made it several times and it’s excellent. It’s a bit of an odd recipe in that you think that there’s just way too much in the way of dry spices when you’ve got them all prepared, especially as there are no wet ingredients other than the can of tomatoes and a matchbox sized piece of creamed coconut block.... but it just works out brilliantly. Much of the liquid content comes out if the beef itself.

Started using the Curry guy bible, make a big batch of base sauce then away you go with whatever curry you want.
The chicken tikka is superb, I use a hot grill but think an air fryer might be better.

Base gravy made today and a CTM as the wife fancied it. Best I’ve done so far, no real spice but an amazing depth of flavour to the sauce and chicken.
