Chicken Patia / Pathia from scratch without base gravy 🌶️🌶️ (British Indian Restaurant / BIR)

Patia is a hot, sweet and sour dish with use of chillies and tamarind. It is based on a blend of tamarind and lemon or lime with sugar or jaggery to help the balance and chillies for heat

Ingredients
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 bay leaf
1/2 finely sliced large onion brown/white
2 teaspoons garlic paste
1 teaspoons ginger paste
2 green chillies
1 teaspoon mix powder / curry powder
1 teaspoon chilli powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1.25 teaspoon coriander powder
3/4 teaspoon cumin powder
1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
4 teaspoons tomato paste mixed with 4 teaspoons of water
1 tablespoon tamarind sauce (I use Maggi)
250 millilitres water
1 tablespoon mango chutney smooth
1 teaspoon lemon
1/4 cup coriander fresh/chopped
1 teaspoon fenugreek leaves kasoori methi
Method
1. start by heating the oil on medium add the bay leaf and onions and fry gently until the onions start to turn golden
2. add the garlic, ginger and tomato paste. fry for 1 minute before adding the diced green chillies and stirring through
3. now add the mix powder, chilli powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, sugar, salt, tomato paste and fry for 1-2 minutes. If it starts to burn or look too dry add a little bit of the water. It’s fine to add water at any time when needed. If you are not adding coriander stalks, you’ll be adding most of your fresh chopped coriander near the end, don’t add that yet
4. turn up the heat and add half of the hot water and stir through well. Cook for a further minute or two then stir in the rest of the water.
5. simmer for a minute then add the tamarind paste, mango chutney and lemon juice, stir in well
6. add your choice of protein, stir through and continue to simmer
7. after a few minutes add the dried methi leaves and most of the chopped fresh coriander.
8. stir through and continue to simmer until the meat is cooked and the sauce is the thickness you require stirring occasionally if it looks like it’s about to burn
9. serve decorated with the remaining fresh chopped coriander

This was a great tasting curry mate thanks

[@TheCurryKid]

Glad you enjoyed it, this is the dish I have every Friday (just the base version) :)

[@rickyd8776]

@@TheCurryKid I'm going to make your base for the first time this weekend. I've heard every BIR has their own special twist on it (secret ingredients) Don't suppose you've picked up any secrets on your journey?

[@TheCurryKid]

I think it's all down to personal taste preferences to be honest, heres a few I like: Maggi tamarind sauce in things an extra freshly grated garlic clove added a couple of minutes before you take the pan off the heat black cardamom in with the onions until they are ready then remove it sprinkle some black salt (Kala Nimak) on the dish once served up for smokiness light some charcoal, drop it in a a metal dish in the middle of the curry with some ghee/butter/oil and smoke for a minute or 2) It's all trial and error really seeing what flavours you like :)

[@rickyd8776]

@@TheCurryKid great tips mate I'll give them a try. I was wondering more about the base gravy...I see the usual ingredients like peppers, onions, standard spices etc. But my guess is every restaurant has their own secret ingredients they don't disclose.

Hi Josh a huge thumbs up from me yet again👍🏻 I made the Pathia and it tasted excellent I just pimped it with a teaspoon of Mr Naga. Your scratch recipes are superb and for anyone who is maybe new to scratch or even curry making they are so quick and simple to follow. I’m working my way through each style Keep up the good work young man👌🏻

[@cx620]

Honestly can not fault your recipes at all by far the best home curry’s I have ever made , they taste so authentic and just like the Indian takeaways. You have serious potential , you could start up your own little cooking business because they are so great. Just wondering if you have a recipe for sag aloo or garlic pilau at all? Thank you 😁

[@TheCurryKid]

Thanks so much CJ really appreciated. They are both on my to do list so i'll give them a shove up. They will appear on my website thecurrykid.co.uk/ before here so keep any eye out there. Some dishes unfortunately take a while to get right. Many I've been lucky enough to get in 1-3 tries but butter chicken took nearly 13 attempts to get it the way I wanted it and that takes up so much time lol

[@cx620]

The Curry Kid yes that’s understandable , you’re doing brilliant keep up all your hard work , certainly doesn’t go unappreciated, I’ll be sure to keep an eye out thank you😁

Hi Josh could you advise on doubling this up please? The doubled up Madras you recommended was excellent buddy thank you. Thanks in advance

Great to heat, glad you enjoyed. To be honest most you could get away with simply doubling but this is probably a bit more accurate, hope it helps, enjoy :) 4 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 bay leaf 1 finely sliced large onion brown/white 1 tablespoon garlic paste 1 tablespoon ginger paste 3 green chillies 2/3 cup fresh coriander stalks or 1 cup fresh coriander (chopped finely) 1.5 teaspoon mix powder / curry powder 1.5 teaspoon chilli powder 2 teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoon coriander powder 1 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder 2 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste mixed with 3 tablespoons of water 1 teaspoon tamarind paste 400 millilitres water (boiling hot) 2 tablespoon mango chutney smooth 1 1/2 tablespoon lemon 1 cup coriander fresh/chopped 1 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek leaves kasoori methi

Hi Josh, could you just let me know how much onion in grams roughly please. Where I shop the sizes differ greatly. I'd really appreciate it and great video as usual. Thank you

[@TheCurryKid]

Hi many thanks for the comments. Just weighed one of my large onions and it's 450 grams so once peeled I woudsay 1/2 is around 200 grams. Hope that helps. Just make sure you soften slowly to caramelize first, that's the key :)

Hi Josh, what brand of tamarind paste do you use? Thank you

[@TheCurryKid]

Hi, currently using TRS Tamarind Concentrated Paste (little blue pot) but once that is gone I'm just going to make some fresh up using the solid blocks and freeze it cubes I've used the East End bottles before but there is so much other stuff in them it's hard to get that sourness without using tons and changing the flavours of the dish I normally taste a bit. If its really sour just use the amount stated. If you don't notice a think you'll need more :) You could probably substitute for fresh lime at a push for that sour flavour.

[@ajharl562]

@@TheCurryKid thanks for that mate cheers

[@mariam0736]

What can I use instead of tarmarind paste please?

Do you have brown sauce? Tamarind is one of the main things in that
