I'm asian, i'm immuned, making sure it takes 50+ hours to cook,:up: the similarity is we both throw stuff and cook it, and kerching salan is produced, as you can see from my very detailed and intricate recipe on how to make salan.:D

JazakAllah khairun ukhti... please forgive me. I pray Allah (SWT) forgives me for my shortcomings inshaAllah... :(

I can cook quite well alhamdullilah. I can make chicken salan too and I think in comparison to other Asian dishes, it is easier than them, but when it comes to cooking in general especially in comparison to other international cuisine, I don't think making chicken curry is easy at all.

Ainsley cant cook... you call that cooking? lol.. thats just called throwing whatever he can find in the kitchen of ready steady cook into a hot pan till it looks slightly brown, even if its uncooked... is it any wonder they get food poisoning and salmonella :rolleyes:

:rubeyes: I think Ainsley's a great cook! I learned to make chicken soup (bear in mind that before learning that recipe I never made soups or particularly liked them) and the best griddled lamb from one of his shows and a few other things too.

I agree, curry is not that difficult to cook. I'm not Asian but I practically live on curry week to week and have now developed a taste for hot food. But my stomach still complains.

[.: Anna :.]

i can make but out of chicken, tandoori chicken & roast chicken type things are easier than that, so if ur point is that its easiest thing then i vote no :p

[Daaal]

BTW Microwaving ready made curry doesn't count as making it.

too right, i can make it so that says it all. but u got to be careful cos i ended up putting 1 chilli per person at one time. ended up with 9 small hot chillis, everyones mouth was burning. apart from me who thought it was bit hot.

;p:D:D

Okay.....this is my favourite type of Chicken Salan....its with Aanchar (pickle)....here goes:


Ingredients:

* Chicken - 1 (700-800gms), cut into pieces
* Onions - 3 / sliced fine
* Tomatoes - 3 / chopped fine
* Garlic Paste - 1 tbsp
* Ginger Paste - 1 tbsp
* Yogurt (curd) - 3 tbsp/thick
* Kalonji - 1 tsp (Nigella seeds)
* Methi dana - 1/2 tsp (Fenugreek seeds)
* Whole Zeera - 1 tsp (Cumin Seeds)
* Saunf - 1 tsp (Fennel seeds)
* Bhuna Zeera Powder - 1 tsp (Roasted Cumin Powder)
* Red Chilli Powder - 1/2 tsp
* Haldi - 1/2 tsp (Turmeric Powder)
* Green chilies - 2-3/ to taste
* Lemon Juice - of 1 lemon
* Salt to taste
* Fresh Coriander (Hara Dhania) to garnish


Directions:

1. Slit the green chilies and soak them in thelemon juice. Keep aside.
2. Heat about 4-5 tbsps of oil in a nice big wok (kadhai), and fry the onions till brown.
3. Add the kalonji + methi dana + Whole Zeera + Saunf. Mix well.
4. Add ginger-garlic paste and haldi...roast well.
5. Now put in the chicken pieces and roast on high flame till well browned.
6. On high flame, add yogurt and fry well, but gently...don't want to debone the chicken!
7. Once it leaves oil, add the red chilli powder + roasted zeera powder + tomatoes..and roast well once again on high flame.
8. Once this also leaves oil around the edges. add about 1/2 a cup of water + salt to taste...and cook covered, on simmer for about 30 mins. Stir once in a while.
9. Once the chicken is tender, put in the chilies with the lemon juice and fresh coriander, and simmer for 5-7 minutes to enhance the flavours!
10. Serve with naan roti or basmati rice, and a veggie side-dish.
11. Note: This is actually flavoured with the ingredients of an Indian pickle. Buy them only if you intend to use them, otherwise, its worthwhile to try the basic recipe without the 4 strange sounding seeds. You can even puree the tomatoes for a smoother gravy.

ENJOY!
