Bad Vindaloo

I made Vindaloo the other day, and it was great, but unbearable at the same time. I followed the recipe by heart but not to the T. It was unbearably hot, maybe I didn't have enough oil, or enough onions, or I bought the freakin' hottest medium Vindaloo on the surface of the Earth. Long story short, I needed two pieces bread, a large coca-cola and a bag of Doritos couldn't handle. I'm going to a local Indian restaurant this week, so until then,

What is Bhuna and Madras curry?

Bhuna is a type of curry where they use no water and lots of oil. They first will heat up the oil and throw in all the spices to add flavor and then the meat will be added. This adds lots of flavor to the food without having much sauce, it also allows the meat to absorb the spices and oils. My gosh it's flavorful and tender, lamb is a very good choice with this kind of dish.

Madras curry, is again a curry dish that is named after it's sauce. Ir originates from a city called Madras, but has since changed it's name to Chennai. This dish is a mildly hot dish, that goes well with either a meat or vegetable dish. It's more or a domestic dish in India than a dish served at restaurants. It's again a dish that involves chili powder, cumin, coriander and paprika. You will slightly cook the meat and vegetables and then make the sauce on a low heat and then add the meat or vegetables back into the dish to finalize their doneness and flavor.

I have been pretty busy as of late, but I do plan on making a Vindaloo dish this week. I have been also pretty active with hubpages.com. So you can go there for articles by me on cooking and travel. Here is my author page:
