      Oh no, not another one 'persuading' me that I should buy the Thermie (this is said in JEST in case anyone is wondering ....) - as I said to Richie, it 'seemed' like the Thermie was really designed for more 'adventurous cooking' rather than the simpler dishes like curries and the like. I'm a very boring cook but as this lovely young chap has already said to me, it can make you a more creative cook so I think I will finally be pressing 'buy' - or at least my Advisor will be!! :-)

    looks nice but Chinese take out has potato also and I personally add some mushroom and green bell pepper too
    if you really want the taste infuse to the chicken make the chicken and sauce the day before and then add green pea and (potato, mushroom, and green pepper if you like) before serving the next day, specially if you have guests and you want to impress them

    • @RichieTheFoodie

    Making this for my family but I need to almost double the curry. I’m putting more stock to make more but then it’s turning out too thin. I added corn flour and it helped but it tastes a bit watery. Any tips?

    • @RichieTheFoodie
      @RichieTheFoodie  6 месяцев назад +1

      Hello. A few factors here, it might be a bit late as you’ve probably already doubled the stock. I’d definitely double all of the ingredients other than the stock, I’d add about 500-600ml of stock if I was doubling this up. If your sauce is plentiful, remove the chicken from the pan and run on a high heat to reduce your sauce to intensify the flavour, reduce enough so you have just enough sauce for what you need then add the chicken back to heat through. You could also add more curry powder if you want. I hope this helps - good luck and thanks for your support 🙋🏻‍♂️😀RTF

    @piecetoyou8285 11 месяцев назад +1

    Dude , this is so far from an authentic Chinese curry sauce, but it certainly is the healthiest. lol.
    Here`s ,how a original one is made.
    Loads of oil in a deep pan ,fry onions and whole spices and fruit until dark golden colour in oil all together.then remove, leaving the flavored oil to use.
    Then add the curry powder usually a mild madras , once cooked for a while on low heat now add the flour , loads to thicken the sauce to nearly a paste.
    Cook that flour out. then the coconut usually goes in , that dried stuff in the box or coconut cream or milk. but has a longer shelf life in a fridge if you add dried ingredients less if watery ingredients but can freeze. ,
    And that becomes your curry paste, once very thick where it heaps up on a spoon,it ends up like the stuff people buy in the square tubs in the UK,
    And as its a paste you just add water to how much you want to make it into a sauce, ,
    But ill give your one a try,try the healthy version.

      Hey there. Many thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed and informative comment. It’s much appreciated.
      I guess it’s not supposed to be authentic, just a simple method of trying to create a similar flavour, and like you say, making it much healthier 😂

      @piecetoyou8285 11 месяцев назад

      @@RichieTheFoodie yes ` just remember never allow the curry powders to stick to the bottom ,because if you allow burnt powder or flour you will destroy the flavor in the oil and will need to be thrown away.,here is a example oil to flour ratio,
      1 liter of oil to 500 grams of plain flour, also very important to keep the oil at a low degree so it don`t burn, because you cook the curry powders out and then the flour, it takes anywhere from 1 hour to 2 hours from start to finish, not a quick paste to make slow and steady,
      There should be many video out there for better info,
      Most curry powders in my experience take a long time to cook to the point you don`t get a powdery texture when testing on the tongue to pallet,
      And a day or to left helps the flavors and texture, become more flavored and smoother,
      But in the real world not all will afford to cook powders for long time,
      so cooking something like the real item is good enough,
      Better to learn `then eat` than to eat bought shop ready made foods,
      When I used to cook curries often I used ghee as it takes a high temp,
      And I new when the powders were cooked enough when the oil came up to the top and would darken to a lovely color but was not burnt ,
      But for those who cook a curry in veg oil witch is cheaper than ghee,
      If cooking, a typical curry with dry powders, once the powders are cooked, by placing the curry on the smallest ring on very low flame, most of the oil will come up to the top surface, just keep removing the oil from the surface, for a less oily and healthier curry sauce, you need oil to cook and break down the powders.to begin with but then can be removed once its done its job.
      Most oil does not have flavor from the curry most curry powders are bitter, so what you get come into the oil is minimal of flavor, its a myth from what I have tested in my opinion ,
      The flavor is in the combined powders used once cooked,
      Unless you start off cooking and infusing whole spices in the oil first to flavor the oil,
      Onions and garlic and ginger will set you off on a good stead,
      And adding / cream / yogurt, coconut milk, or tomatoes, brings a bitter curry flavors to a nicer rich taste, with an add of sugar or if you caramelize the onions first .
      if you don`t know how to use spices and herbs correctly for flavor, use ghee for better high temp and flavor than veg oil, and use one of the cream , yogurt etc, and infuse whole spices in the ghee first .
      IF you think about curry ie gravy ,there are several things to remember,
      The overall look, the aromatics , flavor, texture , color ,if one of these are lacking it will be noticed,
      know your herbs and spices .
      The best advice I can give any one is to start knowing what gives you the (smell but have no taste), and what gives (taste but haves no smell) when it comes to using herbs spices .
      when it comes how and what spices , and herbs to use it will help you become better in producing a great gravy than an every day normal gravy sauce.
      To many gravy ie curries are covered up by adding cream etc at the end for flavor, But many are made purposely with these to produce that sauce. Concentrate on the oil , spices and herbs and how best to infuse them,
      There are thousands of spices we will never in our life time use ,and no one is an expert in every sauce or how to use the spices ,this is what makes chefs and there food so diverse,
      But there are fundamental rules that have been mastered to a point they can`t be improved as yet,when it comes down to cooking,to get the best out of the spice without destroying it them rules are past on.
      Hope there will be some advice here you will take on board , some you may not agree` that`s what makes us individual from another,
