    not bothered.

    any, none, does not matter, as long as there is a great taste and Naan etc and something to wash it down I am happy.

    Has to be chicken is pushed to choose, but I love curries, with most meat(s)

    Chicken

    Beef (well not in an authentic restaurant - at home of course)

    Prawn

    Mutton / lamb

    Goat (very nice before anyone goes eeeuuughh!)

    Sorry realised that some faiths dont allow certain meats to be eaten,, if you cant tell I am not part of said faiths, and mean no offence to anyone who is, has been or even thinking about becoming part of a religious following.... :roll:

    Steak, slowly cooked after 24hours marinading.

    My Seikh friend shouldn't eat cow but he likes his McDonalds!!

    I believe there are a lot of regions of India and Pakistan that are vegetarian so no meat at all.

    I do prefer a lamb curry as love the meat but some curries lend themselves to the lighter chicken.

    Dunno, but the meat could be a bit grizzly.

    Out. Go on. And don't come back until you've thought about what you've done.

    if you really push me then i'd say

    lamb in a rogan josh

    chicken in a saag or tikka masala

    that is not to say an aloo gobi doesn't go down a treat too.

    all curries should be accompanied with a peshwari naan and washed down with copious amounts of cobra or kingfisher.

    steak? that should be served very rare with chunky chips fried onions, fried mushrooms, garden peas and onion rings, have i missed anything.

    i actually work with like 20 asians (mostly Indians, a few Pakistanis) so i know where to go and who to speak too to get the real thing not the british idea. the other upside is that if i'm in a busy Indian restaurant i can usually get the attention of the waiter before anyone else, thanks to having picked up some Punjabi in the last 6 years i know what to shout.

    also what not to shout, since most of what i know would get you a kicking in Amritsar.
    Fancy a brew?

    I like British takes and traditional. If you don't experiment you never know.

    Vindaloo style! (I like the taste of the sauce, not because it burns my bollokcs off)

    I always used to have madras, which was getting on too hot, so tried a vindaloo and was amazed at the flavour - not as dry, much more tasty.

    The old bog roll was on ice though for the next day, and a tube of savlon.

    Can't believe you forgot prawn, goat, beef, king prawn, crab (yeah, crab curries to exist!! :shock: ) and obviously dragon curries.

    Ok, maybe not dragon... (Commodo dragon perhaps, but it's just a poisonous big lizard really - wouldn't fancy eating it!)...

    Once I tried lamb, and to be honest, I don't know how people eat that stuff, it stinks. <where is the puke emotion?>

    Pork is the best, so as chicken and fish.

    :shock: :shock: :shock:

    You clearly don't eat (m)any traditional greek meals then!

    How can you say lamb is horrible!!? It's one of the nicest meats, in curries and otherwise. Slow cooked, it's best. Mmmmmm 8)

    ah but god knows how many of my friends and family will not eat lamb cause they have this cute idea of little fluffy four legged clouds bouncing around a field some where.

    My point it wouldn't be doing said bouncing if it hadn't been bred for the eating, eating good :lol:

    I just watch the Eurovision song contest to find out the latest political stances.
  • if its spicy and hot than lamb.
    Anything thats pointlessly mild has to be with chicken.... mild is for wimps :P

    I've tried a king prawn madras which was nice, but not a good as lamb :)

    Lamb/mutton its more traditional and works witht he strong flavours.

    Chicken is too tasteless a meat for curry and doesn't add enough depth to a good curry. Lamb/mutton is the most traditional meat for a curry, as chicken was reserved for the rich and Cows are sacred :)
