Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Chicken with spinach

    • PennyG on August 28, 2011

      I saw Anjum make this on her show and it looked great. It was good - great flavors. I would make this again. Be sure to serve with rice to help use all the great curry sauce.

  • The Raj's chicken cutlet

    • Bloominanglophile on February 12, 2014

      This breaded, sauteed chicken breast was quite good, but I couldn't really detect Indian flavors. Several things could have contributed to this: I was trying to make this for a weeknight meal, so didn't marinate it long enough (I marinated about 1 1/2 hours), my garam masala was past its prime, and I ran out of cumin and didn't have any to add to the breading. I also had trouble grinding such a small amount of ingredients for the marinade. I am wondering if a mortar and pestle would do a better job? Pounding onions sounds a bit unpleasant, though. I did scrape off the marinade before dipping in the egg and crumbs (doesn't specify whether to keep it on or scrape it off). Regardless, I am willing to make this again at some point and see if it will have stronger flavor.

  • Goan fish curry

  • Kashmiri pilaff

    • etcjm on February 25, 2019

      Regularly made, could probably make it with my eyes closed. Lovely rice and can be adapted. I prefer it with the almonds and raisins, as it adds texture, especially if you're eating it with a smooth curry. I don't add the pistachios or walnuts as I don't find either particularly nice..

  • Bengali squash with chickpeas

    • etcjm on February 25, 2019

      Very good, tasty. Substantial enough for a good lunch. I blended the leftovers with some water for soup, which was just as good.

  • Chicken with pickling spices

    • etcjm on November 18, 2021

      Not for me this one. I don't understand how there can be so many ingredients and it just be quite flat and no heat. I wanted something with a bit of a kick and given the quantities of garlic ginger and chillies, I was left kind of baffled. Leftovers might be a bit better hopefully.

  • My roganjosh

    • etcjm on February 25, 2019

      This is a regular in our house. The longer it's left in the oven the better! There's a few spices as with any curry, so recheck before you pop it in the oven. I once missed the cinnamon and I could taste the difference. If there are any leftovers it gets better.
