jalfreizi

Do looovvveeee currys , going for one tonight

 

[Sonic]

Chicken Tikka Massala, although the Shahi in Beaconsfield Road do a very nice variation called Chicken Tikka Nowab. Spot on!

 

[Jim D]

Chicken Dhansak for me.

On the subject of foreign food invented locally I believe that Chop Suey was created in the USA by a Chinese chef wanting to make something that would appeal to the American palate - ie looks exotic but tastes totally bland.

 

[JJ McClure]

Lamb bhuna with mushroom bhajee please.

 

[Tricky Dicky]

I know it's not authentic, but a good CTM hits the spot. A nice biriani does the biz too. A Chicken Tikka Almashriki can be a good option.

 

[Yoda]

Chicken Tikka Pathia or Chicken Sashlik(sp) Massala or Shahi Chicken or my own, home made, Chicken Jalfreizi.

I can't decide and I'm sure I've missed a couple.

 

[Uncle Buck]

Garlic Chilli Chicken always a good one.

Well that is dinner sorted tonight.

Might be a bit unpleasant on the 0757 from Euston to Crewe tomorrow....

Re: Re: Re: Your Favourite Curry Dish?

The same is often said about Chinese that it is a Western Eropean invention and that you will never find it in China but I do not know I have never been to China.

When I lived in Italy in the seventies, I used to travel to Florence a fair bit and found cheap accommodation in a place above a Chinese restaurant.

Italians are very particular about the structure of a meal. The pasta or rice course is always served before the main course. In this Chinese eating house, the menu was roughly the same as any British equivalent. The difference was that they wouldn't bring you the meat portions until you had finished eating the rice.

As you say ... we Europeans rarely get to experience anything other than Chinese-flavoured meals, or curries with a hint of South Asia.

That's Chinese, no?

Or is it just a speciality of Chinese chippies?
