Fancy a curry

I love a Ceylonese Korma. Cream,coconut,almonds, fillet of lamb.In fact its the one I usually pick. Although that said when I was in Sri Lanka I ate only western food.

Then return to Glasgow, Ceylonese korma please 🙄

No love for a Biryani?!

Yes, the Dishoom one in particular has been mentioned 🙂

If you haven’t tried them yet, Shalimar is good – it used to be a bit ‘curry by numbers’ done nicely, but they are now adding some more unique dishes, and it is all very nice. And just down the road is Spice Culture

I'm usually up there visiting my mum who's nearing 90 and getting on a bit for risking visits to random curry houses so that's really handy, thanks @johndoh!

what should i look for as meat replacement, lentils?

Any mixed vegetable. Particularly good in curries are cauliflower, potato, saag (spinach) or eggplant (brinjal) or a combination of any of those.

Okra is also pretty good but isn't to everybody's taste.

Pulse proteins to be found in peas, beans, chickpeas

Paneer (a firm type of cottage cheese)  is also a favourite staple of the vegetarian curry. Just got back from Northern India, and paneer features quite widely. It's easy enough to make at home too, and I'll often do a batch if I'm cooking curry for a dinner party. It also features in some Indian puddings.

last couple i tried were chicken chilli massala (about right heat) and chicken shashlik korai (mild but tasty)?

Try a Chicken Tarka, it's like a Chicken Tikka but a little 'otter

Mostly cook our own now."

You cook your own????

Must save a lot in Vets bills.

I'm a big fan of paneer and I'm not even vegetarian.

I love saag paneer 🙂
