I've never had a phaal!!! Had a couple of chilli massala's (not to be mistaken with tikka massala which is tame) and was sweating profusely by the second mouthful

Violent food

And i love vindaloos

I had a phaal once, never again. They are stupid hot, I could only manage a few mouthfuls.

Okay what is a phaal? I know some Indian food, but not alot. Is is a chili?

My husband doesn't like food that is spicy so I have to tone down my curry chicken, that's why I add the hot sauce for me.

Why yes they do Jim! Allow me to chime in here...

I'm more into the Irish food:
For example, St. Patrick's Day cooking...

Corned Beef, Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Cabbage, and BEER!

And day after St Patrick's day left overs cooking...

And that time of the year for good old American BBQing is fine cooking!

Ahhh yes. The reward on that BBQing was delightful.

I do enjoy a good cup of tea though; especially on the weekends.

What's the matter over there in Colorado? Isn't it good enough weather over there now to fire up BBQ now?!

Nothing wrong with soup and crackers though. It home cooking still.

Not when it's Campbells tomato soup

There's a bit of a stomach bug goin round these parts currently.

I bought a Porterhouse to BBQ tommorrow (hopefully) to make up for it!!

I find myself opening the fridge and looking at it every half hour or so

*the J.B. sauce is ready and waiting*

Paul_R · #84 04-25-2007, 10:34 PM

Oh good. Fresh meat in the fridge waitin for the grill.

Sorry to hear about that stomach bug. Take it easy with that.

I puked chicken a few weeks ago and haven't craved or even wanted to be near chicken since.

J.B. sauce is THEE BEST! Man, that sounds good now. May have to stop at the store tomorrow to start the marinating process.

But that is an Indian dish.

A phaal is basically a curry with a stupid amount of chillis in it. Lots of fiery hot fresh chillis and lots of red hot chilli powder. I've seen it make grown men cry!

The last survey they did, Fish & Chips was once again Britain's most popular food. I think Chicken Tikka Masala was down to second or third. Funnily enough you can't get Chicken Tikka Masala in India. It was invented in Britain, a chef was asked to add some sauce to Chicken Tikka as a customer thought it was too dry.

Man oh man, in Munich there was an Irish pub that served an Irish Breakfast all day. Eggs, sausages, toast, baked beans, fried tomatoes, etc. My god it was good.
