The dates are a guide, and people throw out so much food because they are rigid about those dates. Just use those senses (sniff, look)! I grew up before households had refrigeration, and meat came wrapped in paper. No plastic back then.
Don't know why anyone would unsubscribe... It's great to watch a food channel that cooks normal stuff from a supermarket, not expensive stuff that people don't necessarily have access to or can afford. Keep up the good work. I do exactly the same as you, bit of water in the jars of curries, pasta sauce etc.
As a chef your chindian stir fry, curry mashup is definitely aimed at the culinary challenged. Having said that it looked perfectly tasty and isn’t that what matters. Keep up the good work 👍
Really entertaining cos it's so spot on as to how things really are in kitchens up and down the country, like putting the pan on with oil in it after forgetting to rub the spices into the meat, late dash to put the onions in... we've all done it! lol - just a tip, always have some of them garlic granules in so if you suddenly find you're out of garlic, or your garlic has sprouted/gone off, you can cheat by sprinkling some of them on. That curry looked delicious. 😋Next time you're thinking of doing one, give us the heads up, I'm only an hours drive away! 😂🤣😂
That looks delicious! I think I’m going to try that jar of madras even if it does play my hiatus hernia up! I miss a lovely curry! It’s made me yearn for one !
15:25 Lovely meal Gareth. It's a treat to see you cooking. I'm sure there'll come a day when we see you make a loaf of bread to surprise your wife. I'm sure you can do it if you look at other videos. Anyway, I'm not a meat eater but I'm going to buy some madras curry sauce and naan bread tomorrow and have it with home made chips for tomorrow's tea. Hope you and the family are keeping well. Bye for now 😁
Just had to order a Bacon, Egg and Sausage Triple Decker Roll with Chips today for Lunch from Just Eat after seeing your great Layby Snack Van video. Lovely grub. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for the suggestion.
Good sauces those are from Lidl. I think the Madras is the best one but the others are very good. i sometimes put a teaspoon of naga sauce in to get it extra hot when I fancy a hot curry.The Naans they do which are normally at the bottom of that section in my store are also good. Taste of India ones. I put them under the tap to get them quite wet, then put in the air fryer for 4 mins . They come out hot but also nice and soft. Peshwari is my favorite.
As other people have said your not dining alone, I’ve had to stop watching your videos after I’ve already eaten, I only watch them now while I’m eating 🍽️ 😂😊
those curry sauces are delicious we have them in australia, you need a rice cooker my man, perfect rice every time, a little tip, 2 tablespoons of oil on the raw meat with 1 tablespoon bi carb soda 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 egg white, mix very well fridge it, marinate for an hour before cooking - meat will be so tender you can break it with you're tongue, good video pal.
Would never use a bottled curry sauce ! When you put a bit of effort in and use fresh ingredients and spices , it’s a different level !! But places like uk Australia etc , where your used to eating frozen foods etc this is counted as cooking 😂 But recommend you to try making fresh !
It is and works on all quisines but I would be using a teaspoon amount. Small issue is sometimes people can taste the bicarb if you do a marinade, however, only had this a couple of times. A stew for example, I would add a teaspoon of bicarb to the meat, mix with a splash of water and put in the fridge for 30 mins, then take out and wash off. The bicarb has done the tenderizing as seen by the change in the colour of the meat, more pink.
More videos like this please. Much better than yet another McDonald’s review. Will check out the curry from Lidl. I was in there my local one last week and saw they had frozen snails in garlic butter. I’m hoping for a review before I try. Keep up the good work
Hi Gareth another comment before I get into your video !! I regularly have a mixed fruit salad with my home brew yoghurt for my lunch , and enjoy it. ( Nice and healthy !!) Today for something different, I had chopped yellow mango, beetroot ( a sweet beet ) and pineapple. Could have had papaya from the garden as well but my bowl was full. I squirted SALAD CREAM on top ( sometimes do with other fruit. ) and enjoyed it. As they say, don't knock it until you try it !! Beetroot was local, nearly finished from one of my wifes marketeer friends. Day temps are going up now so root veg take a hit. We are at present HAVING to fill one of our ponds up by pump from the irrigation channel. Takes a while the pond is 3 metres deep plus new banking. Keep up the good work, please, they are always entertaining and educating ! Keep well, all our best wishes to you and yours ! Don, Phannee and the boys.
I do wanna see more of these cooking videos I’m loving them also Gaz do try Potts Curry paste it’s actually a much fresher version than the traditional one
Very Nice Gareth, I have taken to cutting up Pineapple or Grilling a Banana until it goes soft , the sweet fruit is nice with the Curry also with a fry.
@@BaldFoodieGuy my only cooking tip would be to microwave the mushrooms 4 minutes before adding, to draw out the water, especially if adding towards the end of cooking (or if you forget to add them until too late 😳)
@@michaelmurphy2330 the look of disappointment was strong 😂😂 Must say I didn't enjoy the beef pot noodle. I'm also wondering did the Mrs get any of that madras in the end 😂😂😂 nah love it tasted horrible I eneded up throwing it all 😂😂😂 you wouldn't have enjoyed it anyway.
I'm crap at doing this sort of thing without watching the process, so now I've seen it done I will give it go because that's beef madras does look really good!
Those sauce are good! We've tried the Vindaloo in that range and it's lovely but hot - needed some raita to cool it down! Yours looked great! Love Madras too. Thanks, Gareth!
Hi Gareth,nice one again, splash guards, eBay 2x Prima splatter guards,9.89, we use them, a round knob handle on top, better than extended handle which can get in the way👍
@Paxanglorum I just tried the balti version from Asda - loved it, I'll probably buy them online if they get un-stocked by Asda. The closest thing to restaurant standard I've come across.
Gareth you need to wrap your Naan in a clean tea towel and keep it warm. Tearing off a little at a time. Keeps it most as well. Great curry Mate, Enjoy!
Certainly looked very tasty I have had the sauce jars before they are very good and a few chips is always better than the boiled rice. Oh apparently the Cathedral City cheesy Heinz beans are now in Tesco I know you can't wait to review them.
Never alone fella 👍 I have to admit.. this video is so much better than the ready made meals .. please think about doing more like this.. I personally haven’t tried this dish but after watching this it made me so hungry and I’m going to buy it and try it out.. where did you buy the Nan bread from please .. thank you for sharing this..👍👍
ill always check my subscriptions, if you didnt pop up in my feed, id look for your content because I, and im sure many of us, value your content and you are like a friend. a stranger who is a friend, i love watcing all your videos loving this video, i did comment before about you should cook more from scratch and im enjoying this video, im sure many of us are enjoying watching you making proper food. gonna finish watching now, take care, make more cooking videos
good video gaz, I tend to get the slow cooker out for beef curry and there's loads of cuts that slow cook well, like shin, chuck, even sirloin, batch it up and freeze, works out about 2 quid a portion
iv bought a similar kit from aldi that im going to put in the slow cooker , i normally use pataks madras paste its just right for me on the heat side. i also do with my limited cooking skills one pan pork steaks with garlic and ginger gravy , other spices can be added , used or removed :- 1.fry the steaks off and place to one side. 2. fry onions and mushrooms until they start to colour. 3. add garlic and ginger to the shrooms and onions. 4. when you smell the garlic add in stock of your choice. 5. put the pork steaks back in. 6. simmer for 10 mins. 7. plate up and with any veg you want. you can add flour / corn starch to make the gravy as thick as you want.
quick tip !! add water 3 minutes before to make more curry sauce ,it thicken it out. more gravy style curry. my neighbours are from india and they taught me this.
I've quite enjoyed the cooking ones
A tip for hard butter, use a grater and it will spread easily.
"should have been eaten yesterday, but it will be fine". If we all used your proper food assessment, no one should be hungry. Love your videos mate.
Cheers

1 year from now Gareth will be doing his own garam masala and cooking everything from scratch...and still he will be humble ...fair play
You're never "dining alone" pal, we're always here and the food is looking tasty 😋👍🏻
Cheers pal, very nice of you 👍
He is correct. You never dine alone
Was on the edge of my seat when the garlic ran out. Well rescued

Gotta say that looked champion. I really need a curry now!
You are such a natural on camera, really cheers me up, thank you.

Looks good enough to eat!
Thanks for another entertaining video 💜💜💜

Those jars are brilliant. Use them all the time and love to add my own extra bits and bobs in with it.
Looks delicious. Especially love the close-ups of the naan bread bubbling away.
Looks amazing
That looks delicious! I think I’m going to try that jar of madras even if it does play my hiatus hernia up! I miss a lovely curry! It’s made me yearn for one !
It's so good! Not really hot but hits the spot 👌
i always add mushroioms even to store bought ready ones from asda , great video as always Gaz
Thank you
For none Chinese curry I’m a big fan of pataks paste makes great curry

Learn cooking with " honest Gaz " hahaha brilliant
If you sprinkle water either side of the nann then put it straight on the rack in the oven for 12 mins they go lovely and soft and they don't dry out
Yes I did mate
I love the rogan Josh one of these, tried them all. Aldi got identical
Looking good can’t wait to try this brilliant thank you
Hope you enjoy
Over the last couple of months you've developed a kind of mumbled giggle Gareth... interesting! Food looked fabulous.
Looked very nice
Well done
Best wishes gareth 👍

Brilliant! Inspiring...do you remember this Vesta dry curry 'kits'?
I don't sorry mate.
Vesta, now that takes me back. First time I tried “curry” was trying me dads Vesta when I was about 10 years old, loved it 👍🏻
These got me through uni, they are all really really nice!
Your personality is infectious, top lad, love your videos 10/10

Cheers
Love to see your favourite take out pizza made with pride 👏👏🇨🇦🇨🇦
Looks pretty good and tasty . Thank so much . 😮
My pleasure 😊
those curry sauces are delicious we have them in australia, you need a rice cooker my man, perfect rice every time, a little tip, 2 tablespoons of oil on the raw meat with 1 tablespoon bi carb soda 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 egg white, mix very well fridge it, marinate for an hour before cooking - meat will be so tender you can break it with you're tongue, good video pal.

But places like uk Australia etc , where your used to eating frozen foods etc this is counted as cooking 😂
But recommend you to try making fresh !
bi carb marinating for the meat sounds like the velveting technique often used in chinese cuisine.
Surely you don't need a whole tbsp of bicarb soda?
It is and works on all quisines but I would be using a teaspoon amount. Small issue is sometimes people can taste the bicarb if you do a marinade, however, only had this a couple of times. A stew for example, I would add a teaspoon of bicarb to the meat, mix with a splash of water and put in the fridge for 30 mins, then take out and wash off.

Very Nice Gareth, I have taken to cutting up Pineapple or Grilling a Banana until it goes soft , the sweet fruit is nice with the Curry also with a fry.
Nice curry from Lidl, I’ve had the tikka one it’s lovely, I like the extra spice flavour in the lid, great value for money I think.😃😁
Looked good that Gaz 👌🏼
Onions first though 😂
👍🏼🇬🇧🇬🇧
Cheers Dan
Great looking tea and right up my street, add a cold beer and perfect
Oh yes!
That did look good! I could almost smell it..... those 2 part sauces are brilliant. Good home cooking at its finest.
Thanks so much
@@BaldFoodieGuy my only cooking tip would be to microwave the mushrooms 4 minutes before adding, to draw out the water, especially if adding towards the end of cooking (or if you forget to add them until too late 😳)
Looks great Gareth👍
Cheers Ian
Looks absolutely gorgeous. Looks down at my beef pot noodle 😂😂😂😂
I know the feeling 🤣😁
@@michaelmurphy2330 the look of disappointment was strong 😂😂
Must say I didn't enjoy the beef pot noodle.
I'm also wondering did the Mrs get any of that madras in the end 😂😂😂 nah love it tasted horrible I eneded up throwing it all 😂😂😂 you wouldn't have enjoyed it anyway.
That looks awesome Gareth.. well done!🙂👍
Thanks 👍
I learnt years ago and many would agree the base of a good curry is fry onions and garlic first, until soft.
Looks good Gaz ill give it a go 😛
Spice magic!!! Debbie McGee gets everywhere lol
I'm crap at doing this sort of thing without watching the process, so now I've seen it done I will give it go because that's beef madras does look really good!
Enjoy mate
Well done Gareth, you've done a great job, it made a nice change. You'll have to do some more of these type
Thanks, will do!
Well done Gaz top of the bill bud looks tasty that and keep the good reviews 😋👀🔝💪😉😎
Cheers Tim
Those sauce are good! We've tried the Vindaloo in that range and it's lovely but hot - needed some raita to cool it down! Yours looked great! Love Madras too. Thanks, Gareth!
You're welcome 😊
Hi Gareth,nice one again, splash guards, eBay 2x Prima splatter guards,9.89, we use them, a round knob handle on top, better than extended handle which can get in the way👍
Oohh yummy 😋, quick tip, if you sprinkle water on naan bread before putting in the oven it stops it drying out
I sometimes do butter chicken with those jar sauces it's lush and super easy :)
asulute champion this great stuff
Cheers mate
Well done Gareth. Tasty looking meal. Mrs BFG is in for a treat. 😋
Cheers Geoff
Love it Gaz!, Mushrooms are a must in any curry for me!!
kohinoor butter chicken curry sauce, from Morrisons is great. Made in India and no acidity regulator in it, just natural herbs and spices.
There's only enough for one in those sachets though. 2 sachets are just about enough for 3. It turns out too expensive.
I’ll make a note of that, thanks
@@DLC-sy7pp yeah it is pretty expensive, but I only buy for one. They are much nicer than the standard jars tho.
@Paxanglorum I just tried the balti version from Asda - loved it, I'll probably buy them online if they get un-stocked by Asda. The closest thing to restaurant standard I've come across.
@Paxanglorum £1.95 on Ocado for the chicken Karahi. Just looked.
I use Paraks, the factory is near me in Leigh, Lancashire.
I’ve had the madras before & it was nice although the vindaloo in the same range isn’t spicey enough.
Gareth you need to wrap your Naan in a clean tea towel and keep it warm. Tearing off a little at a time. Keeps it most as well.
Great curry Mate, Enjoy!
I use them all the time, I find they’re a better authentic taste than just jars of sauce! Aldi have their own version too!
I basically done the same meal Saturday except I slow cook the beef for 5 hours in the slow cooker first 🙃
Top man gareth 👌 great to see what ever you do in the kitchen keep up the good work 👍
Thanks, will do!
Certainly looked very tasty I have had the sauce jars before they are very good and a few chips is always better than the boiled rice. Oh apparently the Cathedral City cheesy Heinz beans are now in Tesco I know you can't wait to review them.
Wi' chips! Top man! 👍😁
Looks good and a lot cheaper then buying from a tack away
Well done chief Gareth you made that look easy 😂😂😂. I've got the chicken madras tomorrow mate 👍🏻👍🏻
Gaz I thought you done a job there mate! Looked got to me pal… top video as always sir ….. Smithy
Thanks 👍 Smithy
Nice one😃👍
Never alone fella 👍 I have to admit.. this video is so much better than the ready made meals .. please think about doing more like this..

Looks ace, Aldi do the same sort of jar curry with spices in the lid, pick one up every week with a brace of naan and a packet of rice 👍🏻
Sounds great! Cheers
That looks amazing Gaz, well done you, your getting there sonshine, it's a splatter guard that you're missing 😂 it'll pop up some time!!! 😂xx
Thanks 👍 xxxx
Nice beef curry, chips and naan 👍🤤
I hope the wife enjoyed her portion with extra mushrooms.
Cheers Gareth 😀
Cheers John
Great upload dude, I’ve used these before, pretty decent for the price 👍 x

KNOCK !!!! KNOCK !!!! KNOCK !!!!
its Danny Malin , he's setting up his table in the front yard .
" Oh my Gob ! "
good video gaz, I tend to get the slow cooker out for beef curry and there's loads of cuts that slow cook well, like shin, chuck, even sirloin, batch it up and freeze, works out about 2 quid a portion
iv bought a similar kit from aldi that im going to put in the slow cooker , i normally use pataks madras paste its just right for me on the heat side.
i also do with my limited cooking skills one pan pork steaks with garlic and ginger gravy , other spices can be added , used or removed :-
1.fry the steaks off and place to one side.
2. fry onions and mushrooms until they start to colour.
3. add garlic and ginger to the shrooms and onions.
4. when you smell the garlic add in stock of your choice.
5. put the pork steaks back in.
6. simmer for 10 mins.
7. plate up and with any veg you want.
you can add flour / corn starch to make the gravy as thick as you want.
I remember those curry sauces being quite good. I use Pataks pastes now.
I can't believe you can eat that much in one sitting ...lol
I totally agree with you regarding Patak's curry paste jars, they are better than the jars of curry cooking sauces as they have more flavours.
quick tip !! add water 3 minutes before to make more curry sauce ,it thicken it out. more gravy style curry. my neighbours are from india and they taught me this.
