I'm going out for a curry

[jonesthecurl]

Incidentally, should you have vegan dinner guests, use yeast (assuming they don't consider yeast to be animals) and replace the yoghurt with thick coconut milk, and the ghee with a vegetable ghee or peanut oil.

I Secondly, if you can get it, the flour should include about a half "ata" flour. This may be called "roti" or "chapatti"flour. If you can't get it use a good wholemeal.

Is this a wheat flour or some other grain?


If you use whole wheat flour, should it be somewhat course or rather fine.. that is, more like cornmeal?

I found references, but nothing that explained the consitency.

[jonesthecurl]

It's to do with the amount of gluten I think - the "ata" is coarser, and a stoneground wholemeal is a good substitute. It's probably to do with whether the husks are left in or taken out.

[sam_levi_11]

Wow, you really are knowledgeable on curry. Pretty amazing.

[jonesthecurl]

you must have some good curry places in your area, Sam.
have a chat with the people in the kitchen (not the owner) - you could learn a lot.

Yeah, there are quite a few good ones, i might just do that.

So, do people want more recipes?
and if so, do you want quick ones or more like the raan?
I have a kicking beef one with so much spice in it's frightening, which cooks for a long long while and is amazingly mild at the end of the process.

I'd love to see more recipes. Truthfully, I'll probably never make raan, but having that recipe gives me ideas to experiment with other dishes. So I'd be interested in seeing recipes for more involved, exotic dishes. But if you have some quick and easy ones, I'd love to see those too.

"Ata" normally refers to coarser wheat flour, the one made by including husks as jonesthecurl said. While the fine wheat flour, also called Maida is normally used to make "Paranthas" and "Pooris", though it is an all purpose flour.

I'd like more recipies. It will drive my girlfriend mad that I have CC open, to refer to, when cooking.

Also yes id love more recipes, as although the raan sounds gorgeous, ill probably never make it myself, more likely find a takeaway that does it haha. But yer, id like more recipes, and ill choose one of the ones to make maybe.

What better way to spice up the romance?

Spice up? Sorry for the bad pun.

More please!

I will likely be able to try quick ones with readily available (US) ingredients sooner, but any recipe is welcome.
