Let's talk Curry

[Xennial]

I often have curried eggs, does anyone else?

I was planning to have it today, but my boiler has broken down, have been waiting all day for someone who was supposed to call between 1000 and 1300 but it is now 1535 and no sign of him, so I will probably have something simpler like baked beans

While it's common in traditional Indian curries, I'm not a fan of hard boiled eggs.

Ooh I love an egg in a curry!

My introduction to curries was a Birds Eye Chicken Curry which had sultanas, it was quite yellow so perhaps more of a Chinese Curry. I can remember going out with my parents to restaurants and hotels in the late 60s or very early 70s and seeing curries being served with all the accompaniments like coconut, sultanas, sliced bananas, diced tomato and cucumber as well as mango chutney. My first experience of an Indian Restaurant was with friends in 1973, my then boyfriend aged 17 insisted on having a Vindaloo !

Ooh, I love a curry as long as it’s not too hot. Nothing above the “2 chilli” advisory on the packaging.
When it comes to the naan to go with it, it has to be peshwari, I love it.
For a quick and cheap(ish) curry fix we'll often have a “curry takeaway bag” from a supermarket; 2 chicken curries, veg curry, rice, onion bhajis and naan.
After extensive testing, Waitrose, is to our tastes a clear winner.

Now you are talking. I often buy jars of Patak's Madras and Vindaloo spice paste, or the madras paste pots. I love chicken madras, pork belly vindaloo, chicken phal, mushroom, bell pepper and onion madras, and mixed vegetable curry from Chinese takeaways (sorry, but I don't trust the meat from them).

I buy frozen blocks of mayflower Chinese-style curry sauce from my local Heron Foods store (227g for £0.85p). Just add what you like to it, or even just the curry sauce on chips, and it will taste just like something you get from a Chinese takeaway.

That's a good tip thanks

We had some M&S ready meal curries the other night and they were horrible. The nans were like cardboard as well. It has to be the real deal for me and I don't like those Pataks or Sharwood jars or pastes either. I'm a tad fussy on my curries

Loyd Grossman curry sauces might be to your taste. There are 7 flavours I can think of, balti, bhuna, madras, korma, tikka masala, thai green and thai red.

Oh, M&S Curried Beef! Yummy

I dislike Korma and the one called Butter Chicken Curry.

Veggie Biryani, I love it, Madras and of course Tika
