Inspired by some curry banter in another thread:
I reckon All of them are awesome in thier own right but I'm a huge fan of a red hot vindaloo with a cold beer.

i can't drink beer with curries. or any alcohol for that matter, it's gotta be water.

i like fijian farm-style crab curry best! pure coconutty goodness

I like to have a bit of potato/onion/capsicum in my Indian curries so I usually go for the Korma.

Big Ups to Thai Green Chicken Curry as a close second

There's a place down docklands called 'Bhoj.' It won the age good food guide's best cuz... we went there & my flat mate ate so much he spewed in the toilets

on the topic of hot... anyone tried 'Horrible Haggis Arse-dropper chilli sauce?' made from haberero (golf ball sized orange chillis) that is some fookin hot stuff

for all your hot sauce needs: http://www.2hotlicks.com/

supposedly some guy has come up with the hottest sauce in the world..hes basically just refined whatever the chemical is that makes chilli hot. he reckons the first time he tried it, he put a drop in his food and his tongue swelled up for 3 days. apparently your body adapts though.

yeh in the interview i read with him he said the sauce wasnt for flavouring..leaving it open to interpretation as to what the hell it WAS for. chemical warfare perhaps?

factory worker · Post by **factory worker** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 2:20 pm

a good clean wholesome rush -
too much chilli - just can't be beaten.

fry off off the sseds for maximum affect and gring them into a psate with the rest of the chilli using pestle adn mortar

sneaky hands · Post by **sneaky hands** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 2:23 pm

yeh i love chilli, i have to cook separate meals for my girl and myself cos i like it so hot!

Aren't curries made from curry seeds and not chilli's???
Or am I insane, or perhaps both?

you are correct - the tangent arose from someone above "on the topic of hot"

Some are a combination.

We used to go to a place in Camberwell called "Curry Curry".
After a while we got to know the owner (big ups Sanjay) and everytime we would ask for a hotter and hotter "Combat Vindaloo". Everytime Sanjay would put more spice and hot chilli peppers in but it was never enough, we would always ask for more (even after many dodgy near acid experiences and even dodgier toilet related incidents).

One day Sanjay told us his wife said " If you make the Curry these boys want you will probably kill them!"

Nowerdays I am older and wiser and prefer my curry hot, but not

I can't decide with Indian curries, they're all good. But for Thai curries, I'd have to say Panang wins.

To be honest with you, I can't stand most Indian curries now.

I used to work at Flavours of India on Commercial Rd in pharan or however you spell that stupid suburbs name. One of the major ingrediants we used was onions. In everything, but mainly the chicken curry (not butter chicken - makhanwhala or something? but can't remember what it was called either). I used to have to peel + chop + puree 70 kilos of onions once and sometimes twice a week. I weigh 70 kilos. When I worked it out, I discovered that I'd processed nearly 2 tons of onions over a year and a half.

That was 3 years ago now, and I still can't bring myself to eat a real Indian curry.
