    1 cardamom pod
    1 medium onion diced
    1 heaped tsp garlic
    1 heaped tsp ginger
    2 green peppers
    half a chopped tomato
    2 tablespoons tomato puree (Watch me make it here!: bit.ly/BIRPuree)
    8 pieces pre-cooked chicken
    pinch of salt
    250ml Base Gravy (Watch me make it here!: bit.ly/BaseGravy)
    coriander to garnish
    *spice mix

    Method:
    First add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to a large pan,
    put it on a medium-high heat and add the cumin seeds, onion seeds, bay leaves, cardamom pod and cinnamon.
    Step 2, when the seeds begin to crackle quickly add your diced onion and stir to combine.
    stir fry for a few minutes before adding your teaspoons of garlic and ginger paste,
    continue cooking for a further 5 minutes or so or until the onions start to go translucent and brown.
    Step 3, add your green peppers and chopped tomato pieces. add in your spice mix aswell and give it a good stir.
    stir fry for 30 seconds or so, just get the spices hot and well mixed before adding in your tomato puree over them.
    stir to combine and cook for a minute or two.
    Step 4, add in your pre-cooked chicken pieces and stir to combine, add a pinch of salt
    and continue to stir and fry for a minute or so until the chicken has warmed through properly
    add your gravy and allow it to cook and reduce down till desired consistency!

  • @tehklevster
    @tehklevster 4 роки тому +1

    Sorry if I'm teaching everyone to suck eggs, and I know Latif knows this, but for the benefit of others less well knowledgeable about cooking sauces...using a wee splash of water helps release or deglaze the "fond" off of the bottom of the pan. The "fond" is that stuff that often looks burned, but it isn't, and if caught on time, it's a concentration of deeply tasty flavours that can be re-integrated back into your sauce by deglazing. Depending on cooking style, this can be water, stock, red/white wine, basically any liquid. Wee splashes of water are your friend to release the fond and make your dish tasty. I learned this from my brother who was a chef 25 years ago, it always works.

    Wowsome. Really did taste a lot like BIR. I used Oakham Chicken mini fillets out of Marks & Spencer. I pre-cooked them whole, as chopping could make them dry out. They were succulent. Not an expensive product, but it punched above its weight for flavour in this dish. I used your Ginger Garlic paste, your tomato puree and your base gravy. Delicious. Will be making it again plenty

    Love your work, this recipe is a family favourite. Been following your process as I can’t get a great BIR curry in Australia, had few OK ones. One question, how do you manage to keep your aluminium pans so clean. Mines clean but very stained and can’t get the spice stains off. Perhaps a future video on how we keep these fry pans sparkling again when following along at home 🙂

    Thanks Chef looks great! Have a question for you. I understand the chicken is pre-cooked but when cooking a bhuna you need a high heat as you have shown to evaporate off all the water in the sauce. But doesn't this high heat tip the chicken over from being cooked to being overcooked? Especially breast where there's a very fine line between cooked and moist and overcooked and dry? This has been bugging me for a while so thanks for your answer

    I’m self taught but more or less do the same as you do. I miss some of the oil seasoning but use cinnamon and cloves as a substitute. I also don’t use base gravy, instead I use a tin of chopped tomatoes. Your curry looks beautiful 👍👍👍

    • @psyick9543
      @psyick9543 4 роки тому +1

      DeanoP it’s worth trying a batch of base sauce and freezing it in portions. It gives curries a much better depth of flavour and richness that you don’t get otherwise (except maybe slow cooker curries)

    • @psyick9543
      @psyick9543 4 роки тому +1

      DeanoP The other good thing is base sauce is very easy to make (not tried Latin’s yet mind) chop a few veg, add some spices then just leave it to cook for 1-2 hours. Then making a curry with it only takes about 15 mins.
