Pizza versus curry

[QueenOfGoths]

A good korma is a thing of great beauty.
I like pineapple on pizza as well.
Would be happy with either to be honest.

This. But as I fancy a curry at the moment I'll go for korma.

 

[Proper Tidy]

I've never had pineapple in a korma

sry, the new yorker in me needs to point out that an Italian-American is not an immigrant. the parents are immigrants, but not the hyphenated-american.

My mate used to eat Phaal, which makes Vindaloo seem positively mild. Personally, I wouldn't go near a Vindaloo. Far too hot to enjoy the flavours. Madras is about as hot as I like 'em.

Thing is, a little heat can bring some flavours out. I found what happened over quite a few years was that the amount of heat for delivering the desired effect very slowly crept upwards. It's not a macho "stunt food" bollocks thing. Though it is for some.

Then eventually you find that vindaloo is getting a little mild and lots of curry houses don't even do anything hot enough, which isn't all that much fun because it restricts your choice. Which is why about a year and a half ago I went on a chilli fast to get my tolerance down. Takes a good while but the sweet spot is down to a spicy madras now.

Anyway korma just means yoghurt involved doesn't it so can have hot kormas, same as vindaloo means garlic and wine so doesn't have to be hot, although I'm just being a dick really cos in british indian/south asian restaurants obviously they now correspond to how hot do you want your curry. Have had a pork vindaloo in UK curry house that wasn't that hot though.

Standard curry house i'll usually have a jalfrezi or a biryani, I suggest you all do the same

 

[danny la rouge]

I suggest you all do the same

Depending on the establishment, I usually have balti, tandoori or rogan josh. This is, of course, correct.

Not enough colour for my liking in a lot of curries, that's why I favour a jalfrezi, the whole green chilli in the centre makes it more cheerful.

Baltis I find too variable, no two restaurants seem to agree on what it is supposed to be, leading to inconsistent heat and errr consistency

That’s why it depends on the establishment. I feel like ordering from Shish Mahal tonight. I’ll go tandoori. With pratha.

I'll not bother thanks all the same. Korma is boring, pineapple on pizza tastes bad.

 

[skyscraper101]

Korma, Tikka Masala or Byriani, most of the time. I don't see the point in stupendously hot dishes.

 

[danny la rouge]

pineapple on pizza tastes bad.

Try it along with chilis and capers then get back to me.

 

[dessiato]

Sorry. No. I already have capers, olives, anchovies, and chilli. That's OK. Pineapple doesn't belong on a pizza.

 

[Aladdin]

I rather like Daal.

 

[felixthecat]

Korma. No contest

I think you’ll find you mean it doesn’t belong on your pizza.

Ordinarily I wouldn’t choose it either, but I decided to try a thought experiment: pizza is my favourite food. But I also like curry. So would my least favourite pizza near my least favourite curry?

I love pizza too, but the comparison is between a generally lacklustre curry and a pizza which has has been egregiously defiled.

 

[danny la rouge]

I’ve just had my curry. Washing it down with a beer. It’s not such a bad apocalypse.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I want both. A mild sauce with the added sweet and sour tang of pineapple sounds terrific.

Let's be clear, I DEMAND both.

Pineapple Korma Pizza.

I’m in!

 

[Johnny Vodka]

fucking both

 

[Saul Goodman]

fucking both

TMI.

 

[not-bono-ever]

what an awful choice to make

 

[Chilli.s]

Id eat either, if hungry. But really, they are both baby food.

 

[hash tag]

danny la rouge you bastard. I really fancy a decent curry or pizza now (bearing in mind that last night was traditionally pizza night and we chose isolation).
In answer to your question neither.

 

[danny la rouge]

danny la rouge you bastard.

We used to get on. Now you’re always cussing me out over food.

 

[ice-is-forming]

danny la rouge I honestly can't believe you needed to ask this question!!!

 

[hash tag]

We used to get on. Now you’re always cussing me out over food.

I have nu metal (sorry, probably not your tatse) on playing and loud now, feeling full of life and you have made me want a pizza or curry at 8 in the morning, which I could happily devour

PS....sending virtual hugs danny la rouge

The worst restaurant pizza with pineapple has to be far better than the worst korma. I tasted my wife's korma in The Taj Mahal in Bilbao. It was like hot Angel Delight with boiled prawns floating in it, slightly flavoured with curry sauce.

See... baby food. The under fives would lap that up.

You can pick the pineapple off, but you can't get rid of the yoghurt shite. Pizza all the way.
