Wouldn't take me long to get sick of chicken, no goats available but A deer is close enough. I have ate at a few in Knoxville and folks ask what's in the dish with goat in it, most pass it by but it is good. may have to talk the wife into going this weekend, been a couple years since we been.

Well, I made pork Vindaloo this weekend for the first time. I have to give it a 2 of 5 stars. I think I messed up on the recipe. It was too vinegary, too hot, and had too much clove in it. I will eat the rest of it but if I make it again, I am going to have to make some changes to the recipe. Very disappointing. :emoji_cold_sweat: :emoji_confounded:

Other than the clove, it kinda sounds like you got what it promised... Vindaloo's are typically hot and usually tart. It's a dish that derives from a Portuguese dish comprised of meat in wine-vinegar and garlic. It's not for everyone.

We're trying Chicken 65 and vegetable pakora's from the Curry Bible tonight.
 
Dishoom is a small (about a dozen restaurants) Indian chain in the UK, and they are somewhat renowned for their food. One of their signature dishes is a Butter Chicken-ish meal called Chicken Ruby. They've published a cookbook, so recipes for most of their menu items are easily found online. I've tried several and they were all wonderful.



They've published a recipe for their Garam Masala spice blend and it's taken my Indian meals to the next level. There are a lot of somewhat obscure ingredients like rose petals, but you can find everything on Amazon; it's worth the effort to grind your own. The recipe makes about two standard spice jars/bottles, so if I'm feeling generous I'll hand one of them to friends and family members.

I ate the leftovers for lunch yesterday and it tasted much better. What a difference a day makes. I have heard that vindaloo always tastes better the next day. That was surely the case....
