  • Madras is my favourite kind of curry so I'm hoping that Waitrose have come up with good one...

    I do love a good Madras myself, unfortunately due to everything being a little more expensive I have not had a curry house one in quite sometime now so I think that might change this weekend! :D Always interested in hearing your opinions on curry because you love a good spiciness the same as myself! I hope you feel better soon, always look forward to your reviews.

    Hey, first off mate - hope you feel better as soon as possible. Might feel unwell, but has not affected your excellent playing, what a tune! / These are quite a regular for me, or was, I now try and weight for a special deal. £5.10 is quite a lot I think, balanced against less for the tin of hot chicken curry from M&S. I do think this is a quality curry ready meal for sure.

    • @Papparoni
      @Papparoni  Před 3 měsíci

    I've not been well at all either Pappa. Hope you're feeling a bit better. Apologies for missing some videos. Beethoven is fuming with you sticking that packet on his face. Yes Waitrose can be a bit stingy with the portions sometimes. I haven't had a madras for quite a while. I've had to calm the heat down in my homemade curries. I am just relying on a few splashes of Dunn's River Jamaican hot sauce on my other food now. Nice one Pappa 👍

    I hope you're feeling better soon Papp... Sadly it's yet another overpriced Chicken Madras Curry in my opinion Papp... As i can buy myself a Beef Madras Curry from my local Indian Takeaway for just £6.99... Or i can add on a portion of Rice with a Naan for a total price of £9.99 with their collection only meal deal... And it'll be £12.99 with home delivery within a three mile radius... This Waitrose Chicken Madras priced at £5.10... For just 350g of Curry... Is quite close to the price of my local takeaway... So i doubt i'll be trying this one my friend... But i still appreciate the review Papp... All the very best my friend... Cheers mate. 🍺

Oh dear, have to laugh though! I am still wary of these supermarket curries, they all seem to taste too cardamomy, there is something generic about the sauce I suppose.

    Hi Papp.
    What weather is that you're under? Did you get caught up in a vodka storm or is it you're just not feeling well.
    I see the bust gets the product label hanging duties today 👍
    All the money for this chicken madras. You must be feeling crook! What's that, about a third to half more the cost of the average chicken madras you regularly review.
    As long as it passed the Papp taste and texture test, the price can be justified.
    It did look good, but as usual needs more meat.... And salt!
    I heard the other day that Bach was in a foul mood as he was shopping for some food. He was very annoyed with the vendors prices and gave the vendor a piece of his mind in protest.
    A customer standing there was shocked to see this outrage from Bach and asked the vendor what was he going to do about it.
    The vendor shrugged his shoulders and said, not to worry.
