Extremely Hot Curries

[whiffey]

Are you a fan, and do you have any tips?

I just burned 2 onions in butter ghee with chopped garlic (from a jar), added 10 each of chopped red and green chillies (these are the hottest sir, oh yes),then a whole Dorset Naga chilli, then a jar of Patak's Vindaloo sauce, then two tins of chopped tomatoes, then 800g of frozen King Prawns, simmer for 5 minutes, and early tastings suggest dynamite.

I absolutely love HOT curries.

LOL Whiffey..... you would have made a more *tasty* curry if you'd only saut�d (not burnt) the onions in ghee (and used more like five of the wee devils) for absolutely yonks (like half an hour), then added the garlic, chillies and chopped tomatoes... cooked it until all the water had evaporated and the oil from the ghee could be seen, then added your prawns and lightly fried them and finally added your ready made sauce (but why bother, you have a perfectly decent curry sauce already). This should then be simmered until the prawns are cooked.

How's your stomach-lining,whiffy??...is there any left to speak of? Everything else you eat must be so bland in comparison-heheh.

I love foods very, very hot and spicy food but Whiffey you beat me. Do you keep a fan permanently in the loo? Dorset Naga & 10 chillies???? You are not crazy, you are sick.
Are your taste buds still sensitive and working?

You'll damage your insides whiffey! A friend of mine asked for a "triple phal" in my friend's Indian restaurant. At an arranged time, we went in, and all the waiters gathered round to watch him eat it. He managed every bit - which earnt him a free meal on the house and rapturous applause - but also meant that he was rushed off to hospital for burns to the his mouth and throat! Seriously NOT funny! The guy who owns the restaurant said that even back home, no one eats such a hot concoction, and the worst thing you can do is to drink beer after it. Half a teaspoon of sugar takes off some of the burning effect of hot curries.

Using mustard oil or chilli oil instead of ghee will multiply the heat of a curry several-fold.
And if a mouthful curry or chilli is far too hot for you, drink some milk . It will take away the heat immediately.

I like hot curries but tried a Vindaloo a while back in the local curry mile and have to say it won't be an experience I'll be repeating, didn't really taste of anything but hot!

Ended up with my tongue stuck in a glass of water.

The waiters suggested I try a tindaloo next!
