Paneer is a great alternative main ingredient for curry. Shown here is the Misty Ricardo's Curry Kitchen Paneer Madras with some rogue spring onion as a garnish. Recipe: https://mistyricardo.com/madras-recipe/

You can buy paneer in all Asian supermarkets and some of the larger mainstream ones. If you haven't already tried it, please do so. Before adding it to a curry, cut it into cubes and shallow fry in a tiny bit of oil / salt, browning 3 or 4 of the sides. 😋

Madras recipe is from my Gourmand award winning Curry Compendium and Indian Restaurant Curry at Home Volume 1 cookbooks.

👋 I'm sure most if not all of you know I've published three books that focus mostly on British Indian Restaurant (BIR) style cooking. Please read on...

Each have won renowned Gourmand World Cookbook awards, with the pinnacle being Curry Compendium, which was awarded Best UK Published Asian Cookbook 2022 AND 4th Best Asian Cookbook in the World (published outside of Asia) in 2022 also.

Also, you'll find a large selection of my books' recipes on my website https://mistyricardo.com along with some extra ones not in the books.

Plus don't forget that the majority of my recipes also have associated videos, which can be viewed directly on my YouTube channel ( https://www.youtube.com/c/MistyRicardo ), on my website ( https://mistyricardo.com ) or by scanning the QR code on the books' recipe page with your smartphone.

FYI Curry Compendium has all the content of Indian Restaurant Curry at Home Volumes 1 & 2 plus a few extras. The books are available in hardback, paperback, and also in the handy Kindle eBook format, readable on any smart device.

Another 'mousy' video, this time a Chicken Tikka Ceylon, cooked to my recipe. Love those furry things.

This is a wonderful slightly spicy curry. That has a devine tomato ...

Here's Saturday's Chicken Coriander & Lemon Achari plated up. I nearly forgot to take a photo.. too eager to get tucked in.

For those who want the recipe you'll find it in my Curry Compendium or Indian Restaurant Curry at Home Volume 2 cookbooks, available at Amazon.

Just cooked. Free poppadom for whoever guesses what it is (and don't say a curry!).
