ReplyDeletethanks all.
ReplyDeleteI will try and post recipes of chow meins soon.
Mondeep - Tomato chilli sauce is a blended sauce you can get it in any super market. Even Heinz do them now.
Green masala recipe can be seen under 'Miscellaneous' category on the blog.
Gheto jee, yes you can replace white pepper powder with black but it will make your gravy look a bit darker.
HOW MUCH SUGAR DO WE ADD IN EACH THE MARINATION AND THE SAUCE???
ReplyDeletehi Y
ReplyDeleteadd a tea spoon in each.
Hey, I tried this out it came out fantastic...tho my salan wasnt as smooth as it seems in ur pic and it was QUITE spicy too..but i think it had to do with me using the chinese chilli garlic sauce with the green lid and golden label....cuz i looked in a few shops 4 the chilli garlic ketchup and i cudnt find it..nOt even Heinz...i used half of that sauce and half of normal ketchup...so cuz of the spice i added like a few TBSps of Sugar..but u cudnt really taste it..cuz it was weighing out the Spice....OverALL...my Husband lOved the Taste...thats all it Matters :-D...
