A few from last night

Post by shrink »

Cross-Post from another thread, but for posterity...

-Saag Aloo (made using RShome123's recipe)
-Pilau Rice (a combination of techniques combined that work well for me)
-Garlic & Coriander Naan (happy chris' technique, with crushed garlic and ghee brushed over the top)
-Plain Naan

They were very very tasty! and the leftovers were lunch for today. I almost felt virtuous, as it was vegetarian!

yep, pretty much to the letter. Obviously using my own base gravy but I've migrated to using your mix powder recipe, as I'm preferring it at the moment!

I think the next stage for me, is realising that the base gravy needs to be kept hot before it's added. That should help me keep the temp high in the late stages of cooking. Although any more reduction and this would have been too dry!

Yeah, it's pretty important. If you are worrying about it drying out too much and burning, you can always add a little more water or base gravy towards the end of cooking, to give more time to cook the potato/cauliflower if it isn't quite tender enough.

Co-incidentally I'm having Aloo Gobi this evening, with Sheekh Kebabs.
