First BIR curry attempt

Post by cartz64 »

My first go at BIR. :):



CA,s base and Pilau rice.

rshomes123 vindaloo.


Al's pre-cooked lamb.


The rice was very tasty, the lamb was lovely and tender(1 hour simmer pre-cook)
The vindaloo was the best I've had(I did add a couple of green chilies because i am a heat head!)

Altogether, although a lot of work, a superb curry. :):


Thanks rsh, Al, CA for your recipes.

Get you with your fancy presentation cartz :D

Seriously , they look great - BIR can look really good with a little effort ( and natural flair ) ... I must make more effort instead of 'head down , ar*e up' straight in to eat it :D
A curry can never be ‘too garlicky’ or ‘too hot’ .....
