Better bought than homemade

cassoulet

Bought and eaten in a restaurant in rural France.
I‘m sad now.

You must have been in some truly terrible Indian restaurants. That is just inconceivable, we have the supermarket ones sometimes, they're ok as a TV dinner but not even in the same league as a proper 'sit down' experience in a restaurant.

There are some terrible Indian restaurants but it depends when you go. Once I had been on the road driving for hours and arrived in Glasgow on a Friday night about 2200. Stopped at a fairly upmarket place near the top of Kelvin Way as handy for parking. We had been there before and it was very good. However we discovered that at that time on weekend nights you got the same slop regardless of what you ordered. Obviously catering for the pub exit market. After a short and pointed discussion we left and they did not even try to pursue us for the price.

Good point, in general the restaurants that ply the 'after pub' trade are not that great. Anyone been to Mowgli? Unlike any other Indian restaurant I've visited before but absolutely superb. One for a treat.

Mowgli in Oxford was a revelation... definitely return there when we're allowed out to visit Master A_T again...

Someone's not putting enough butter on.

Best with jam & cheese 🍴

And then promptly eat some of it as part of our evening meal

Seriously, make this, and the garam masala too - it's one I've been making for 30+ years and it's just the best.

Just tried it...to the letter...and just ok...my son who has hollow legs, left some! Yet to be convinced :-(

Unprecedented. Genuinely so. That's authentic homestyle Indian curry.

It's even better on day 2 mind
