Hello, Iv been watching a few of your videos lately and have decided to buy myself a spice grinder to make the mixed spice and a blender to make you base gravy. One thing I haven’t seen on your channel is how they are pre cooking the chicken or lamb before adding to the curry’s ? Could you explain a little bit of hows that’s done please ?
That's because most of their recipes are made up and not authentic.. It's like calling something a Yorkshire pudding and making it out of iron filings and sawdust..
I remember my first ever Indian and the top of it when you opened the carton was swimming in oil, I just mixed it all in, and that's how I still make my curries. What's your view on this or are they trying to make it appear more healthy today, I love the oil seeping into the rice.
I do my vindaloo very similar to this. Maybe a bit easier on the chilli powder, but I infuse the oil with dried ground kashmiri red chillies first so that adds a bit of heat off the bat. Also a little sprinkle of ground cardamom seeds when the base gravy is added gives it a lovely earthy zesty note 😁
Nice; how was the lamb pr?e- cooked, and for how long. I use a very old pork vindaloo recipe in which the meat is marinaded in vinegar and spices for 24 hours, then finished in a similar way, and you can taste the marination throughout.
I’d you’ve never ate Indian food you may want to start with something milder, vindaloo is one of the hottest curries most restaurants will offer, if you love really spicy food though go for it
I often eat lamb vindaloo in the past from a local take-away after the pub whilst pissed lol. The next morning i was literally walking like JOHN WAYNE. oooOOOPs heeHeeee ..... ;)
There's not really supposed to be any potatoes, 'Vindaloo' is derived from a Portuguese word, so the aloo doesn't really mean aloo, though people often think it does.
@@mr2981 Sorry, you are wrong. Guess who brought the potatoes into India through the Ports at Goa? It was the same people who brought the Chilli: the Portuguese! They used only potatoes, chilli's, local Indian spices and red wine vinegar. Do your research my friend.
@@citrusmarketing6436 Nope. Straight from Wikipedia "The traditional Goa version lacks potatoes, but because Portuguese alhos was misheard as "aloo", the Hindi word for potato, many Indian versions of vindaloo include them.[1]"
Recipe looks awesome. I will be trying that. Does it not normally have vinegar in it? Just wondering - do restaurants tend to make each dish on demand like that or do they make a big batch of all the popular curries - like you see at buffets - and just portion them out from that?
From what I’ve seen, most will have the base gravy and stuff in bulk and combine to make a portion of whatever is ordered when needed. Of course other places may do differently but most I’ve seen work like that
@@jamescollier3 dried Methi (fenugreek) leaf, and the mixed powder is... well that's a secret. Have a look at a commercial curry powder mix for inspiration though, they usually contain similar spices. The red powder is hot chili powder.
@@philipatkinson7039 thank you! I’ve actually asked my family in the UK if they can get me one from ASDA as they’ve been recommended - £10. Thanks for replying
Yes, most definitely. You could add the aubergine raw in small pieces. The turnip would need pre-cooking - simmer until al dente in salted water with added turmeric and whole spices if you wish..
The curry looked very nice in spite of the fact that you all coughed your guts up all over it. It was not clear on some of the ingredients you added so I will not be making this curry. Thanks for posting anyway :)
In this place they use lemon juice in place of vinegar. Potato is used in some BIRs, however it's not part of the traditional Indian vindaloo from Goa. Vindaloo originates from Portuguese, and means vinegar (or wine) and garlic.
@@MistyRicardo Does lemon juice not have a completely different taste to vinegar, why not use vinegar and stick with tradition. Problem with Vindaloo these days is they are a basically a Madras with extra chilli powder! Incorrect, Vindaloo should have a different flavour as it was in the 70s.
I think takeaway style food is a lot of work to replicate at home. It’s probably counterproductive as you’re not making large quantities and requires loads of prep.
I always make up garam masala and other spice mixes such as my own tikka and tandoori and store what friends don't demand from me (!) in airtight jars. If the whole spices are roasted they keep far longer and improve. At least that's what I find. I also make a large batch of garlic/onion puree and freeze in small quantities. I suppose it's like anything else: if you want a home brewed beer to taste better than commercial beers you don't use a kit: you do a full mash from malted barley and whole hops.
In its original traditional form in Goa, it didn't have potatoes in it. When I was eating a vindaloo in a restaurant in Goa a few years ago, I mentioned that some BIR's add potato and they were quite amused. Yes, Aloo means potato, but the name of the original dish - carne de vinha d'alhos (meat with wine and garlic) - has been eroded over the years hence the BIR versions having potato. Most BIr vindaloos bear no resemblance to an authentic dish, unfortunately - in fact many BIR dishes don't exist in India and have been adapted to suit the western palate.
Watching this made me realise again how awful some BIR recipes and restaurants are. The commentary said, 'it's similar to a Madras but hotter". What absolute rubbish. I've been lucky enough to visit India and I've been cooking Indian food for over 25 years - not BIR style which I call curry in a hurry as demonstrated here. Whatever this dish is, it's not a Vindaloo. Madras curry is said to originate from south India and is named after the city of Madras (now Chennai). Vindaloo was introduced into Goa by the Portugese - Goa is in the west of India. Chucking some mix powder in a pan with garlic, tomato paste, a heap of chilli powder, and adding a squirt of lemon juice (vindaloo is cooked with vinegar) and the awful base gravy that goes into every BIR dish and calling it a Vindaloo is an insult to an authentic Vindaloo and Indian cuisine in general. I've eaten Vindaloo in Goa and I think people there would be appalled if you served them this as a Vindaloo.

I love a good lamb vindaloo. It always makes me think of Red Dwarf
You must be a curryholic like Lister 🥵
Ah man. Im craving lamb vindaloo big time now.

Absolutely fantastic video… Only negative I have is that I had to keep pausing the video and checking my smoke alarms for low battery!
Haha 👍
Yep .. i've been cooking indian food more often these days. Its simple n delicious.
Very simple curry i cook it exactly same way and the taste is absolutely Amazing sooo yummy
I like most curries etc ......
Lamb Vindaloo is probably my favourite.
😁👍
There was a moment when things got a bit wild! 😂 🌶️🌶️🌶️👍
I had a look at the menu of the take away and the prices are very reasonable, down here in Bristol it's 8 to 10 pounds for a curry !
Thanks Misty Riccardo!
Looks great a real takeaway! I`m salivating!

The stuff stuck to the side he is mixing back in is just free tomato paste. Pure concentrated flavor.
The food of kings
Insanely good. Thanks for your pre cooked lamb recipe. Worked a treat
Literally ate this last night lol. But homemade. Now I want it again
Gary, why the "lol"???
@@malbig2344 I think he's chuffed that he wants to eat it again 👍

I enjoy watching your behind the scenes videos

You are so welcome
They dip same spoon in spice after spice?

Nice straight forward vindaloo.
As long as your lambs ready of course! :P
Look's spot on!
Haven't long received volume 1 and the detail that everything is explained is amazing! Thank you👍😁🏴
Looks quality, my mouth is watering! 🤤🤤
Do you think the base gravy was a bit thick? Didn't loosen as much as i would liked.
It depends on how the chef likes to cook it. Very tasty curry.
I often eat lamb vindaloo in the past from a local take-away after the pub whilst pissed lol. The next morning i was literally walking like JOHN WAYNE.
oooOOOPs heeHeeee ..... ;)
Could you add chopped chilli or is chilli powder enough ?
Chppped fresh chilli would be good it in. An extra layer of flavour and heat.
Looks lush, I need to buy your book but I’m unemployed at the moment.
I love this 👍👌
What do you use for the base gravy, is it just water?
It's an onion based stock. Here's my main recipe - mistyricardo.com/base-gravy-recipe/

Often you get multiple orders of the same dish so you can make a big batch.

Balsamic vinegar?
Looks beautiful!
Simple and delicious!
Lovely rich
Epic 🙌
Thank you Mr Cool.
What is the benefit of an alloy pan over a stainless?
Looks awesome, just needs keema naan.
Vindaloo curry from the Anglo Indian community in India is very different from what's being made here.
Looks quality 🔥
The frying pans - what make are they and where do you get them from please? Thanks!
Seen as no one as replied to you lynda any good asian supermarket will supply them for around 8 to 12 quid each. Hope this helps 👍👍

@@lyndadale2175 your welcome. Happy day's 😊
So how is the lamb pre cooked orcwhat?
Yes it's pre-cooked. Here's my recipe: mistyricardo.com/pre-cooked-lamb-recipe/
Where can I get one of the pans they use to cook in have search on Amazon and eBay but nothing the same is coming up anyone help ?????
They are just stainless steel frying pans
They are aluminium pans and you can get them from a good asian supermarket for around 8 to 12 quid.
What are those dry herbs you add
That would be kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves) near the beginning, and fresh coriander leaf near the end.
You like phall. My favourite
Looks awesome. Love the sound of the runny nose and coughing 😅
Thank you 😋
Delicious 😋
Looks good boss,beats the shit out a greasy donar !!!!
A vindaloo without red wine vinegar? Not in my house. Looked delicious though
Check out my own Vindaloo recipe which is a bit more elaborate and uses vinegar: th-cam.com/video/kyXU-k4s0wE/w-d-xo.html
@@MistyRicardo Page 96/97 of Volume 1? Just looking at it now, will try tonight with some left over turkey
I agree, can't have Vindaloo with no Vinegar
So simple. Get tge base made right, get the mix powder right and its very simple.
Noiceeee
Get that battery changed in that fire alarm
It's their ordering system alert not a fire alarm
Can I substitute eggplant or turnip?
Yes, most definitely. You could add the aubergine raw in small pieces. The turnip would need pre-cooking - simmer until al dente in salted water with added turmeric and whole spices if you wish..
That base seems a little thick
No onions or peppers ,
Looks amazing but no potato added to it .
Vindaloo comes with potato sometimes. It varies between regions ok the UK.
