    A lot of the curry houses in Bradford didn't do naans when I lived there , apparently that was an Indian and Bangladeshi thing and most of the Asians in Bradford were of Pakistani origin ?

    One thing that did make me laugh was one day after shopping in town I went for an early evening curry in great Horton near Bradford University

    Asked waiter if he did half rice half chips he said you from Wales innit 🤔 lol 😆

    Chips with a curry is so wrong, yet, on occasion, so incredibly right!

    “Chinese” Curry sauce is lovely in its own right.
    It’s daft to equate it to Indian cuisine and just our own vernacular really.

    I’m going to make some this evening.
    How I miss Kon Seto’s curry sauce from the bottom of Somerton Bridge in Newport.

    Would be my last choice of meal!!

    I love lots of different types of curry, Indian, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, Malaysian.
    there's a place for them all.
    obviously they are all better if made fresh rather than out of a tub.

    the best "Indian" style curry I had was in a Pakistani restaurant in Hong Kong.

    Massaman curry is my favourite Thai curry. It's more similar to Indian than a Thai green curry.

    Yeah it's less perfumy than some of the other thai curries, but it's usually a bit too mild for my tastes.

    if I'm making a quick curry at home I usually start with a Japanese curry as a base, like s&b then add a bit of extra heat.

    Yep. Often visit Japan and lived there for 2 years. A katsu curry is one of the first things I go for when over there.

    Agreed. In fact I had karaage curry for lunch today.

    You'd all be horrified by a Danish "Boller i Karry" dish. 99% of the time the meat is just the worst quality and the "curry" is a weird semi sweet monstrosity. Weirdly, most Danes love it and it's a traditional classic. So the word curry clearly means different things to different people!

    Though not as prevalent as in the UK, there are plenty around here. Probably less so in the middle bit.

    The menu is slightly different though. Onion bhajis are particularly hard to come by.

    A place I used to get take out from when I lived on 6th Street (New York's Curry Row) used to serve every dish with rice cabbage and dahl. $5.45. Bangin'.

    For years the Indian Restaurants were terrible.
    Had a great one in NYC though about 15 years ago.

    The Indian population in my area has risen incredibly in line with IT demands and as a result so has the restaurants.

    They are decent enough serving Authentic regional food but obviously don’t taste like the British versions that I love.

    I started making my own about 7 years ago when I discovered “garabi” and I’m glad I did.
    They usually taste great and it propelled me into really enjoying cooking in general.

    I've got a quart of garabi in the freezer. Do you know what an Instant Pot is? I use one. And I've got an Indian recipe book by Urvashi Pitre (AKA the Butter Chicken Lady) specifically for Instant Pot.

    I do Mate.
    I’m on to my second Pressure Cooker now.
    Got the Ninja Foodie which doubles as an air fryer as well. It’s ace.

    It’s amazing to knock out a full pot of it in around an hour as opposed to 4/5 hrs.

    I started following recipes on a BIR forum but now usually just get them from YouTube....Misty Ricardo, Stephen Heap and Al’s Kitchen.
