My fave Curry is Chicken Tikka Balti.

Mmmm sounds wonderful Soozy...

Try a Makhani...(butter chicken)...tis mild/medium slightly creamy but not yuk like a korma 

Slightly spicy (dependent) 

I love a good spicy curry though.

 

We usually ask the chinese to put extra chillies in anything that we order.

I bought a whole range of reduced price Indian stuff from Waitrose this week Joe - the bottom of my freezer is heaving with it.

 

I don't like anything with chicken in it, as the chicken looks all white and floppy, but anything with sea filth (!!) or vegetarian is fab!

I love curries.I was brought up on them. My mum is Anglo Indian and lived in India until she was 17.We go to an Indian resturant where they make stuff especially for us, and not on the menu. We like the Asian curries. They are not like the English version of Indian curries. Asian foods are spicey, but not hot. The English versions seem to put loads of chillies in and drown out the taste of the food. Asians add spices to compliment the food. I make a curry using Pataks Tikka masala paste. It is very nice. 

I love the fish curries, and that is what I usually have when I go out.

Can see how that particular night would stick in your mind Soozy  

Classic!

Never tried a really hot one like Vindaloo. I'm a curry sissy!

I was informed today as it happens...that Vindaloo isn't infact hot ! ?

It isn't Slim. my mum used to make it, and I would describe it as the Sweet and Sour of curries. She used to marinate the meat overnight in a wine vinnigar and brown sugaras well as other spices.

And, it is pronounced "Vun-dar- loo.
