Hey thank you for the comments. Regarding the chicken I may have interpreted this wrong. What I meant to say in simple terms is DO NOT overcook the pre cooked chicken as you will finish the chicken in the final curry with base gravy. I hope this make sense. 🫡
It's worth saying use chicken thighs as they need more cooking than breasts. Breast will dry out really quickly and don't like being reheated. Latifsinspired please delete if you're not happy with my comment.
I am learning so much from yr videos never too old to learn something new so how would put the dish together ? add portions of chicken to the base gravy and you are done ? time saver 😅
I like to marinade the chicken for at least a day, then grill it for about 5 mins each side till the marinade burns a little, kinda diy tandoori, then add it to the curry.
Absolutely love this channel ... One of the best jobs I had as a kid was working on pot wash in an Indian restaurant when I finished my A-levels. Learnt so much from the two chefs about life and instilled a deep love for Indian food and culture. So good to see this channel replicating that vibe, I'm certainly inspired 🙂
Hello from America Latif. I only discovered you're channel recently. I'm a major foodie too & love Indian cuisine & you have made it possible for me to afford to indulge. Thank-you sooo much. Crack on as ya'll say!
Thanks! Bir style cuisine is one of the most under rated cuisines in the world! Even in britain most people don't understand the distinction between Indian food and BIR
Hello from Australia 🎉 I always watch and listen to learn from you! Every week I cook your Dahl Bhuna exactly the same way you do and it’s become a family favourite!! I hope you continue to do videos ! I love them 🎉 Cheers!!
Love the way u apologise to other restaurants & make it known yours is the best nice one 👌 great video like all of your videos. That's why I really enjoy knowing how to make curries at home best food in the world
Thank you, I can't wait to try this and love your channel. My dad, who has recently passed, was our curry king of the family. He grew up in India and had the best recipes ever, would grind down his own spices. So in his absence we need to up our game! Would love to see some videos for desserts, such as gulab jaman, or bhurfee. Missing my lovely dad.
Not long just done a batch of your pre cooked chicken i should have waited haha. Will be giving this one a try for sure as your other recipe is brilliant. 👍
Wonderful!! Will make cooking so much faster with chicken already prepared..brilliant Latif! I must say I miss the atmosphere of the old kitchen; it seemed warm, old, used, not so sterile and sometimes your mother was there! Where is she now? Love and blessings to you sir.
Love your work. If you get the chance can you touch on the use of additives to the BIR dishes, such as naga chilli pickle, patak’s sauces etc. I know that they are used to some degree to add that certain something and do miss the tastes of home
No two BIR chefs use the exact same ingredients, some use Worcester sauce, Pataks, lime pickle etc especially in base gravy but you need to be careful as there is such a thing as too many clashing flavours
I made a base gravy last night and split into bags for the fridge and freezer, I’ve just made this precooked with 4.5 kg of boneless thighs. I’m making a few different curries tomorrow night and then the rest can be frozen for next few weeks. Happy days! 😊 thanks Latif
Awesome video. I love Latife's cooking lessons. That chicken is pretty much cooked I think.....it just has a softness and moisture that allows the chicken pieces to be added to sauces to create different dishes? So another 2 or 3 minutes in a sauce won't dry the chicken out. Could we freeze that chicken as it is, in portion sizes? To be thawed out and used to create a Madras, Vindaloo, etc? Wondeful cooking.....I love ths channel so much.
Cooked this was unsure about using thigh but cooked it to your instructions, this was virtually indistiguishable to chicken breast and again turned out fantastic. Another masterclass from Mr. Latif.
Hi Latifs, from sunny N.W. Wales, thank you for another salivating restaurant secret, your videos are so inspiring to improve my skills and others so to experience cooking Asian dishes as it should be cooked. Personally, my go to dish is a 'Mr Naga' every time, like the heat but flavour is Moorish. Awesome I found your channel. Are there any tips to flavour a 1.5kg chicken on a rotisserie with the same spices, herbs etc or is that the best way to do it. Keep cooking friend😁
Looks excellent Latif. But, surely you've practically cooked a basic curry simply to pre-cook the chicken. I totally get the idea behind BIR cooking, but unless I'm really in a hurry, I can't see much benefit in home cooking BIR style. I'd prefer to go from scratch each time. But I love your channel and your cooking, so don't take this as criticism!
I take it the chicken thighs were fully boned? I love these new updated videos, you're certainly looking the part now, not that you didn't before mind!😃👍
Love your videos, and this is no exception. Question - I know the intention of this is precooked chicken. However, looks to me that if you added some tomato to the dish and some chopped chilli etc, it looks like you have the basis of a nice simple chicken curry there and then ! ?! mark.
Pure magic. Does the camera man get a chance to dig in to that or does he go home hungry and his clothes smelling of gorgeous chicken curry? I like how you resist spearing a chunk with a fork and eating it just to check the flavour ! Such self-control. ;-)
Looks really good. Can you freeze it in portions in the sauce for later use? I have a freezer at home for all my pre-prepared Indian/Bengali/Bangladeshi dishes, so being able to freeze this would be brilliant. I do cook an awful lot of these dishes, cos I like the tastes and flavours 👍👍👍
Another excellent tutorial video Latif. I have two questions if you have the time to answer them bro? 1} Can you freeze pre-cooked meat? 2} Is it possible to re-use the gravy left over from the pre-cooked meat? Thanks my Man, Keep em coming bonny lad, Chris
Yes you can freeze the meats as long as you defrost properly and naturally. you can use the sauce from chicken however be careful as it is strong flavour!
Lots of restaurants precook their meats, hamburgers, chicken for cescar salads, you name it. Its done to save time, to get orders out in a timely manner, especially during busy times of the day. A lot of restaurants here in the US wash their potatoes in the dishwasher as well, every steakhouse I've ever worked in did it, and it's still done today. If the public knew the real shortcuts restaurants took, they'd stop eating in them. Learn to cook, you'll get better food at home if you cook it yourself, guaranteed!!!
I really love this channel, my only small critique is that I just wish you would up the volume on your voice. I like to have it play on my iPad while I am making the recipes, but with the kitchen noises I cannot hear what you are saying.
Love your recipes and tried and tested most of them. Just wanted to point out that the recipe states it is a recipe for PRE-COOKED chicken, but you are clearly adding uncooked chicken thighs. Maybe you would like to point this out to your many followers. Cheers Anthony👍
Mate you need to put a book out.
Are recipe books still a thing? I know some hard core fans would probably buy it.
I'll pre order now.
I’d buy it purely as a thank you for all the info I’ve had for free.
@@soundbeansI had a tonne of recipe books, but got rid of them all. Don't see the point of a static recipe and a photo, in the digital age
Hey thank you for the comments. Regarding the chicken I may have interpreted this wrong. What I meant to say in simple terms is DO NOT overcook the pre cooked chicken as you will finish the chicken in the final curry with base gravy. I hope this make sense. 🫡
Is it ok to freeze and use in BIR at later date?
It's worth saying use chicken thighs as they need more cooking than breasts. Breast will dry out really quickly and don't like being reheated.
Latifsinspired please delete if you're not happy with my comment.
@@simonhopkins3867 As a "breast" man, you are correct. I have converted to nibbling thighs now.
@@bunnybuckypops am assuming so-it's what I am going to do, but but will cook it for less time.
I am learning so much from yr videos
never too old to learn something new
so how would put the dish together ?
add portions of chicken to the base gravy and you are done ?
time saver 😅
I like to marinade the chicken for at least a day, then grill it for about 5 mins each side till the marinade burns a little, kinda diy tandoori, then add it to the curry.
I can’t wait to try! I’m just learning and it seemed impossible until I found your channel thank you SO much (way up North in Canada)
I love your helpful video tips. Always welcome. Thank you.
Just been to your restaurant. Some of the best Indian food we’ve ever eaten. Fabulous 💪👍
Brilliant as always!

It looks so delicious! Thanks for shairing, Chef!
Hi Latif - have you produced a video on the hardware you use? That pot you’re using looks amazing - could you let me know what it’s called?
Hello from America Latif. I only discovered you're channel recently. I'm a major foodie too & love Indian cuisine & you have made it possible for me to afford to indulge. Thank-you sooo much. Crack on as ya'll say!

Bro, you read my mind. I’ve been wondering how you pre cook the chicken. Thanks so much!!
Thats a beautiful kitchen 😍👌 mashallah
Mouthwatering stuff
Brilliant Vlog you are an absolute master of your trade keep up the good work ....

Looks delicious! 😍
So can you then divide into portions and freeze? Do you freeze with the sauce or is sauce discarded?.
I second this question. Best way to store for future use?
Love your work. If you get the chance can you touch on the use of additives to the BIR dishes, such as naga chilli pickle, patak’s sauces etc. I know that they are used to some degree to add that certain something and do miss the tastes of home

I did this and it is amazing in my curries, keep up the good work Latif M8, regards Tel G
Masterclass as always, do you mind cooking a similar dish in a traditional way ?
Loving the programme you have set out. Building blocks are us 👍
Definitely gonna be trying some of this to bang into my next Chicken Bhuna! Thank You so very much Chef 'L' - x x x

How did the curries turn out? Cheers
Watch your videos in New Zealand, love your work just amazing recipes
Love the new set up
This is damn amazing! Thank you for this video sir.
So what do you do with the chicken then? Can we freeze it up for later?
Excellent video well done. Love your pan where is it from please?

Awesome video.👍👍
MashaAllah very delicious recipe❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Thanks🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Hi, I’m Asiah from Singapore. Love your style of cooking. Would like to know, why is there no usage of coriander leaves?
There is, often as a last minute addition
Love these videos , keep up good work , are you using madras curry powder , mix powder or another curry powder please ?
Latif is the man!
Super Latif can you tell me where to get a pan like in the video
Cooked this was unsure about using thigh but cooked it to your instructions, this was virtually indistiguishable to chicken breast and again turned out fantastic. Another masterclass from Mr. Latif.
Have you made a curry yet and if yes was it very good? Cheers
@@John-pg3pi Hi, yes I made a curry with it and it was very good
Can you precook, vaccum seal, then freeze for a future meal?

Superb as usual mate
love your new pots Latif. Maa shaa Allah. Now you can send me the some of the old ones taking up space. Love it🤩 Oops, i must play back now
Pure magic. Does the camera man get a chance to dig in to that or does he go home hungry and his clothes smelling of gorgeous chicken curry? I like how you resist spearing a chunk with a fork and eating it just to check the flavour ! Such self-control. ;-)
Wow lovely. I’d buy your book 👍👍👍
How do your preserve this? Can you keep it for a week? Does it need to be refrigerated?
Nice recipe 😊

I’m curious about this too!
@IHafiz14 I'm curious too, what do we do with the sauce?
So am I
Happy to see you are using steel pot instead of toxic aluminum... and a wooden spoon ... Less music to the ears... 😇, Excellent tips, Thanks 🙏

Are there differences in curry powder and which one should I buy?
Love all your vids here at Curry Rebel curry powders.
Lots of restaurants precook their meats, hamburgers, chicken for cescar salads, you name it. Its done to save time, to get orders out in a timely manner, especially during busy times of the day.

Will you show us how to use the pre cooked chicken in some curry recipes 🙏
Not much mystique in it you just add it to save cooking time by adding it just after you've built up your sauce.
Hi. What 'curry powder' do you use?
I luuvv your cooking style. Could you add suggestions to make a rounded meal, heres hoping x
Thanks Latif.
I really love this channel, my only small critique is that I just wish you would up the volume on your voice. I like to have it play on my iPad while I am making the recipes, but with the kitchen noises I cannot hear what you are saying.
Can you make a dish for us using the precooked chicken?
I eat a lot of Indian foods and I live in Wales. Like your recipe’s
Love your recipes and tried and tested most of them. Just wanted to point out that the recipe states it is a recipe for PRE-COOKED chicken, but you are clearly adding uncooked chicken thighs. Maybe you would like to point this out to your many followers.

As Salaam mualaiykum yummy food ❤
Wa Alaikum Assalam Wa Rahmatullah
Think you could freeze the precooked chicken in an individual vacuum sealed serving?
Thanks, Latif, for demonstrating the procedure for making pre-cooked chicken thighs, BIR style.
{2023-08-16}
Pleasure
How long can you store this chicken and how? (Fridge/Freeze?) Thanks in advance.
Gorgeous xx could you say what a cup size is. know its an American measurement always get confused as to how much it is in UK. Thank you
Latif, you say you use curry powder.. Which is the brand you would typically go for and is it also classed as 'Madras powder'?
How do you store the chicken once it is cooked?
Cool down, fridge for 3-4 days freezer 2-3 months I believe.
How do u keep your pans so shiney😊
Would you use the same ingredients and times for lamb?
If I cook 1.5 Kg chicken, how do I store it for use later on? I cook for two so obviously I cannot use it all at once. Thanks. Great channel.
