Indian Food

[line b]

Had a realization this morning that it is one of the great loves of my life

 

[luka]

maybe it's the best food. have to go out into the outer suburbs to find it though. special excursions into the hinterland.

I was told london is full of good indian food so this suprises me

 

[shakahislop]

like any food i suppose it's amazing how it gets twisted, pulled, converted depending on where it is, that thing of the cooks and the menus adapting day by day and year by year to the soil and people where they find themselves

i wouldnt mind eating a traditional english curry house style meal again. poppodums with all the chutneys and the raw onion. samosas. chana massala. bombay potatoes. vegetable biriyani. brightly coloured curries with huge pools of oil on top. nan bread. i miss all that. it was delicious.

I think we had a thread about this in the decade before last and it was decided that the best curry house in London (and perhaps the only good one at all, I can't remember) was in some godforsaken suburb-of-a-suburb in Zone 6.

In East London most of the Indian restaurants are run by Bangladeshis from Sylhet region, though across the country it varies.

On Lisbon they are mainly Nepalese, though as Liza pointed out yesterday they are also running most of the Portuguese restaurants now too.

Nepalis really got about over the last decade or so.

i like the sound of this

Chicken 65 - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

non-UK/diaspora indian food, also with a vague recipe but maybe you know it when you taste it

Its nice - it is fried chicken after all. Ive cooked it with a dry batter in an air fryer. I generally find that Chinese or Korean fried chicken is more delicious for the same effort. Chicken Manchurian is a much more common recipe in the average curry house.
