Made this a few times and had another go. Thought i'd post up a pic :) My photography skills aren't up to scratch, but the dish was good! Needed a lil more spice though so will probably add some red chilli powder when I have seconds.

Recipe was taken from a book. I can post it up if anyone's interested.

Everything from scratch apart from a couple of tiny cheats :)
 
Apologies for the delay. This is a pic of the recipe. There are a few Indian terms in there so please feel free to ask if there's anything you don't get.

Also - Recipe is for chicken with bone. I do it boneless so modified the chicken cooking times accordingly. Everything else is the same.


The chapati's are slightly dodgy, but taste fine ;p The camera was on 'extra vivid', hence the colour, and I make the chapati's myself but getting them proper on an electric stove is nigh on impossible.
 
you should try prathay instead then or patooray or poori's, maybe even indian rice? or a lot of indian's used to make sabji/daal/curry at home and then order chapati's and naan's only and pick them up from their local indian restaurant or take away.

that way all you need to do is slightly re-heat them when you get back home as they go slightly soggy in a bag, but i do like mine extra crispy, oh that reminds me tandoori chapati's for the win.

chapati's from a takeaway are usually pretty cheap 50p each is what we used to charge for normal ones and 90p for tandoori ones.

Much as I love poori's, eating them on a regular basis will give me a heart attack. Only so much deep frying i can handle :p parathays are better but still need oil in every fold. Chapatis are by far the healthiest option for regular eating.

As for rice, thankee but im north indian, not south. No rice with north indian food for me unless its biryani.

As for ordering them, doing it on a regular basis isnt exactly viable. Also, given that mine taste mostly ok and i cook for myself, why bother?
 
Yea, that bit confused me a bit as well. Given it's a dish for 4-6 people, 2-3 cloves might be a bit less? I normally put in about 3ish teaspoons of garlic paste but it defintley does not give it a garlicy taste so I reckon it could take more if desired.
