Gemmill 43162 Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Aye it's class. Try the sweet potato peanut gratin, it's quality. Loads of really nice soups in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4522 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I'm sure I keep asking but has no one ever managed to re create a Chinese takeaway style curry at home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10543 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Is it because they're rank and no one wants to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4522 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Is it because they're rank and no one wants to? The fact that every village usually has at least one takeaway would suggest otherwise. You'll be picking on the poor kebab next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not talking about takeaways, I'm talking about the bland grainy ichor they offer up as "curry sauce" How many times must we go through this CT? Popularity doesn't equate to quality.

Popularity doesn't equate to quality. I didn't say they were quality, however if they are popular then it is understandable to want to create my own healthy "quality version" at home.

The Fish 10543 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Let me get this straight, you want to create a "healthy" "quality" version of a chinese takeaway's version of curry sauce? Why not make a healthy quality curry sauce? Avoiding the whole Chinese takeaway nonsense? I'm not taking the piss, I'm genuinely confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the taste of a Chinese curry from the takeaway. I'd like to clone it home where I can control the ingredients etc. I have made many "other" nice curries as well. But this is the one I want to make this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4522 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/chinese-chicken-curry-3396 Cheers, but that looks more like an Indian style than Chinese.

Christmas Tree 4522 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Sainsbury's basics curry sauce will suit your needs. I really wanted to do it from scratch if possible. Only thing I can find on google is that a lot of Chinese style curries use madras curry as their starting point. One recipe I found tonight which claims to replicate Takeaway style sauce is this. •2 tbs. oil •3 cloves garlic, chopped •1 inch piece ginger, peeled and chopped/pureed or thinly sliced •2 tbs. plain flour •2 tsp. HOT curry powder (Madras or similar from Chinese grocers) •1/2 tsp. salt, adjust to taste •1/2 -1 tsp. chilli powder (depends upon your taste) •1 tsp. sweet paprika powder •2- 2.5 cups water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 41498 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Buy a chicken curry from your local Rinky Dinks. Take the chicken out and keep in the fridge. Neck the sauce. Next morning, catch your burning, watery effluent as it falls out of your arse. Add the chicken to it, and there you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aside, when I'm condescending it's ok, because I am better than you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
