Must be something wrong with the OCUK messaging system, as I see no invite?!
Hopefully you will get Sundays restaurant invite.
I sent it by royal mail, so there shouldn't be any problems there then

Just a little update, although it works with fajitas bearing in mind I season the peppers with a chipotle mix and split the mix for my veggie other half, it's not hot enough for a pizza topping and wouldn't stand alone for a nice bit of chicken with a bit of a dip or mayo for example like the Tandoori one!
Tea..
I was using tilda blue and the new one is so much softer without being mushy.
Just remember the big 10kg bags don’t seal and it’s a lot of rice to store, only a complete fool would do that.

on the to do list….
Excuse the slightly anemic looking spring rolls, did them in the oven rather than deep frying.
Made a discovery with https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/product/ktc-thai-sweet-chilli-sauce-700ml
best sweet chilli sauce I’ve come across

Did tandoori wings and paneer shashlick with their tandoori paste (many thanks again to my brother for the kind Christmas gift). Extremely good! Butter chicken was also delicious.tbh I like the chips better than powder, and white is my preference. I'm not 100% I've tried the Toffee with white!
in other news... this weeks marinade selection.

Chicken Bhuna from the village curry house, of which I am well known!
Unless you absolutely must be vegan, paneer is the way to go over tofu I think.Thought I would give these boys a go:
Made a Tofu Jalfrezi:
Not bad, but to be honest I don't think it's going to replace chicken for me.
I’d probably take aubergine or cauliflower over tofu actually.
These were from Sunday but wanted to share.

I never usually give any attention to gravy and I'm trying to change that. Day before I made a chicken stock with remains of a rotiserrie chicken. Then for this I cooked up a packet of chicken wings with onion and roasted garlic.
After it had all roasted I put it on the hob, deglazed with vermouth and added flour. Then added the chicken stock I'd made. A little bit of water from boiling the potatoes and from steaming the veg. Couple of dashes of worcestershire. It was great!

Yeah the Tandoori one is a lovely marinade for all sorts of things. I even binge out on the leftovers by reheating in the microve for 1:30secs chuck it ontop of chips with Mayo.
I just Have the green Tikka one left to try now
This is the way.
Rice keeps for ages if you store it sensibly. I buy 10KG bags of basmati which I use gradually to refill a sealable container that I keep in the kitchen cupboard.
