00:38My family eats curry and there's a spicy one. Spicy ones are good if people like spicy but

00:45if they don't they should just get a normal one.

00:48My favourite is the Chicken Tikka Dhopiaza but yeah I tend to stick to the same dish

00:51every time really. I don't experiment on that one.

00:55A very long time ago I tried cooking curry. It wasn't too bad. It wasn't too good either.

01:05I like vegetable curries. A long time since I last went to a curry restaurant. About two

01:08years ago I went on an evening out with some friends and it was down the riverside way.

01:13I can't remember the name. Really good though.

01:15I know that the Tikka Masala is like a key British dish. It's like one that I've heard

01:21described as the national food of the UK and I do love a Tikka Masala with that tandoori

01:26flavour to it. But I think my favourite curry dish is, I actually don't know what it's called.

01:31My brother married an Indian girl and her family's from Mombasa in Africa. They're Sikh

01:38and they make, so they're vegetarian, but they make this curry that's got green beans

01:43and eggplant and whenever I describe it to friends or students who have Indian families

01:52they're like, oh yeah, and they tell me what the name is but I cannot remember what it

01:55is. But that's delicious. It has potatoes in it.
