Bought the best damn takeaway-curry ever! Lots of naan, lots of them pompadoms, and my mouth went nuumb from the spices. But it was good, despite my being oh so very drunk. I'll get a new fix, soon.

I prefer the curries that my mum used to and still makes - they're not Tikka Massala's, not Rogan Josh's, not Pasanda's - Just plain curries like mama used to make....and they are absolutely gorgeous! Can't beat 'em.

What have you got against Booner/Bhoona curries Liam? I don't eat them personally but I'm just interested.

Daryus: On the whole, that is true. There are the obvious exceptions like my grandmother who in her own massochistic kind of way enjoys torturing herself with curries as hot as can be. She seems to employ the David Lloyd George method of decision making - "Take an amount, multiply it by two and double it again", then take that much chilli powder and stick it in the curry. It's enough to leave your face red, nose running and eyes watering for ages.

The border areas are crazy - they have to eat those to toughen them up.

I don't eat take out curries too much, but when I do, I usually prefer the Korai curries. I've never tried Dupiaza curries - I'll have a go next time, see what they're actually like.

Liam: Oh, so it's those rich kids who hate Bhoonas. I usually ignore them. We get the rich Southerners here in Bristol, Mummy and Daddy bought them a Ferrari the day before, but they were really despondent because they wanted a Porsche - those kind of people. They usually go to Bristol Uni and are Oxford rejects. They're always good for a laugh - to laugh at I mean.

Our varsity rugby, football and boat races are good fun too for the chants we usually sing and piss them off with. "You can stick your daddy's money up your arse" "Oxford Rejects" etc etc.

I'm having some probs remembering what's distinctive about Bhunas. I nearly made one last night, but it looked quite dry and we were really in the mood for a bit of sauce, preferably one involving coconut milk. Nearly went for a Thai red or green curry, but in the end found a recipe of Indian origin, not sure what it was. . .

Posted by Orion Syndicate (Member # 25) on :

Oh Kormas, yeah, I don't like them much either but that's because they're too mild, nothing to do with the Northern mantra that only poofs eat Kormas (no offence to the gays on the forums, I was just quoting others). I tried a Pasanda once though which is very similar to a Korma, and it was vile. I never went near one again.

I think the northerners just like to prove to everyone else that they're REALLY hard, so by eating Vindaloos and Phaals, they're suddenly mens men. In our house, weve just spent a whole year taking the piss out of Yorkshire and everything in it, especially Leeds. You'd be surprised just how much there is in Leeds to take the piss out of - almost as much as Wales.

Posted by Orion Syndicate (Member # 25) on :

That just depends on an individuals own palate doesn't it. I can't stand the mild and creamy curries, but some people eat them because even a normal medium curry would have them sitting on the toilet for the next two weeks.

I personally don't like food that's too hot and spicy but I don't like mild stuff either. I prefer curries that are about Madras heat and spiciness. Stick some vegetables in there too, and you've got a perfect curry.

This is probably why I like Thai and Indonesian curries. . . you get the spiciness, but you can also have the lovely creamy sauce as well (made of coconut milk in this instance). Of course, not all the dishes have the sauce, the chicken with cashew nuts I had last night didn't.

Some curries are usually pretty dry - the Bhoona, which we were discussing earlier is supposed to be a pretty dry curry, although it depends on the individual chef as to how stringently they follow this.
