This thread made me want a curry.

So i ordered one.

Now i've put about a stone on

The worst thing? I think it was dodgy and i'm not feeling very well.

And it's all Maria's fault.:(

Same here, went out to get chow mien and some lemon chicken.

Thing is I live 2 Min's from about 10 pizza joints, kfc, mcD's, burger king and 20s of chinese, indian etc. Literally every fast food.

It's hard to say no when it's all on the doorstep..

You can imagine Dave giving directions over the phone to his house:

"That's left at kfc, stay on that road until you reach Mac D's, its only about 100ft or so. Just past this hit a right at Who Flung Dung Chinese takeaway until you reach Vinda, I Need The Loo curry shop. I'm 50ft further up the hill, just before the pub"

Here's my version of "Chicken curry"

Turkey Madras

Ingredients:
4 Good size turkey breast fillets.
6 cloves of garlic (well crushed)
4 large onions.
4 tbls of vinegar.
4 tbls of good soy sauce (Kikkomans or Blue Dragon)
2 tbls sun dried tomato puree.
2 tins plum (not chopped as they contain all the ****) tomato's chopped.
1/2 pound of mushrooms.
5 tspns good quality curry powder (preferably from an asian shop)
2 tspns chilli powder
4 birds eye chilli's chopped (or scotch bonnet if you want it to blow your head off)
3 tspns sugar
3 good sized spuds cut into ½” cubes.
4 tbls of sunflower oil.

Method:
Remove the membranes that run down the middle of the turkey fillets and cut into 1" chunks.
Combine the turkey pieces with 2 cloves of crushed garlic, 1 tbls of vinegar, 1 tbls oil, 1 tspn of curry powder, 1 tbls soy sauce and marinade for at least 24 hours.

I use a large wok but you can use a large frying pan, bear in mind the ingredients will be enough for 2 people for 2 days.

Chop the onions and chilli's and fry with the garlic together with 2 tbls of soy, 2 tbls vinegar and 1 tbls oil until tender then transfer to another pan for a bit.

The Roux
Combine the curry powder, chilli powder, tomato puree, sugar, remaining vinegar, soy and oil then fry for about 15 minutes on a low to medium heat, Add water if the roux thickens.

Finally
Add the onion/garlic mixture back to the wok together with the tinned tomato's, mushrooms and add the potatoe's.
Fry for about 15 minutes on a medium heat then fill the wok/pan with water, bring to the boil then simmer until the desired thickness is reached.
As we know Turkey/Chicken doesn't take 2 minutes to cook so I usually add the turkey after about 4 hours of simmering.
Usual cooking time is roughly 5 hours, this may seem like a long time but nothing that tastes good is rushed.

Might give that a try this weekend wolfie, thanks.

Don't really know my currys, is this a hot one?

[Wolfeymole]

If you use Birds Eye chillies Dave then yes.
If you want a less heat scenario then use normal fat green chillies from Tesco, they are dead mild.
