I didn't get any but loads of those Stein recipes ask for Kashmiri chillies so I Googled where to buy them.
Of course you can get them from Amazon.
Need to get some ordered too. Actually I need to do a big order from South Devon as I'm near out of my dried Mexican type ones too.Originally Posted by Mahow
I went to our local Waitrose because they sell them on their website but ours don't sell them. It was only cascabel, ancho or habanero.
Decided I might as well order a load seeing as almost every recipe of Steins uses them.
Out of interest (because I live there) where do you get them from?
South Devon Chilli Farm. They've a great selection of dried ones and loads more stuff too. Their chipotle sauce is gorgeous.

Cheers, they aren't far away at all.
They might even have a physical shop. I'd never checked that end of it before but I'm buying from them for years and the stuff has always been good.
They do, there's all kinds of stuff by the looks of it.
Take one for the team and go and try a Carolina Reaper chilli, Disco.
I got a chilli growing kit from that South Devon Farm.
The plants grew pretty well, but I ended up not bothering to water them and they died. RIP
I can't say I'm surprised.
He was worried that the cardboard plant pot wouldn't hold up.
As for the dopiaza, I'd say half the ghee and at least half the water.
Tastes brilliant though.
Has anyone ever made Borscht before?
Homemade chow mein.
I would add some five spice to the marinade and put a handful of bean sprouts in near the end.
What a shout that is.Homemade chow mein.

I have ribs that I boiled last night that have been submerged in barbeque sauce since then in the fridge. Half hour blast in the oven later
Bean sprouts are so shit.
Joyless cunt.
Took my girlfriend here for her birthday last night, my first time in a proper Michelin star restaurant (I've been to Tim Ho Wan in Hong Kong but it's not really the same). I'd say it was well deserved as it was a brilliant meal.
Sadly started to get an upset stomach about midway through and ended up chucking most of it up, having barely managed to touch the last of our six courses. That's not a common occurrence for me and I've no idea what caused it, but it definitely wasn't the food.
That stir fry was delicious. Bean Sprouts and Five spice a great shout.
The prices (I've made this exact joke before).
I'm going to voice a potentially unpopular opinion here, but I've think I've come to find "fancy" western food very boring really. Other than the dessert course, the rest is just a big pile of meh.
Give me fancy asian food, or even good ribs/fish&chips/burgers any time.
'Fancy' Asian food.
Sounds great - that menu looks very nice and the venue looks swish.
What would you classify as 'fancy'?
This was the main course at the most expensive meal I've ever paid for. 7 courses at a castle in Scotland. It was nice, but that's about it.
Same goes for most other "fancy" western meals I've had.
It may have been expensive but it's certainly not fancy. Looks like something you'd knock up from leftovers on December 26th.
That looks fucking shit.
Was there an angel delight course?
Pot Noodle starter?
A roast dinner is not fancy
Go somewhere like here: http://lyleslondon.com and actually taste some fancy food.
Buckfast aperitif.

We went here for sushi a few months ago. I had never had sushi before so I don't have anything to compare it to, but it was seriously bloody nice.
The sushi platter looks nice. I find with sushi there's about three or four things I really like but a lot of it I can leave.
I was at a wedding with Buckfast sorbet between starter and main. It was lovely.
Yeah we shared a few starters, then had that along with two other mains (http://www.ciscoes.com/menus.html 'Tokyo Tower' and 'Full-on Futomaki') between four of us. Tonnes of food and came to about £20 each from what I remember. Should definitely get back there.
I've never had Buckfast, but I had Haggis recently and it was fantastic.
The sorbet was quite sweet. When you get over the cough medicine consistency of Buckfast it's actually quite pleasant.
Battered haggis is the best thing chippies do.
On 'Scottish things', we tried Irn Bru when we were in Glasgow since you barely see it down here and it was ubiquitous there.
It's horrible to an extent which defies belief.
Haggis is disgusting. Irn is only good for a hangover.
Interested to hear how much that meal cost? If it's any more than £6 (rough price of a carvery) then they've had you and probably laughed about it after.
I love how you took a picture.
Oh dear. It was 99GBP for the whole lunch, with wine being extra...
One of the many deserts:
99 quid each?
Yep.
Some squirty cream and digestive crumble? Christ, mate. Go somewhere decent next time. No wonder you've got a bad impression of European food.
