Indian definitely! Usually just some rice, a rogan or Bhubaneswar and a keema naan.

Billballbaggins · 12/10/2019 16:50

Indian!
Always chicken pakora, chicken tikka masala, pilau and cheese naan I’m boring!
I do like a Chinese though; I’m boring with that too though, chicken fried rice, chips and curry sauce. Sometimes I switch it up to chicken chow mein if I’m feeling crazy Grin

AnnaMariaDreams · 12/10/2019 18:03

I had lunch out so not hungry but normally vote Indian
Onion bajees
Lamb with okra
Pilau rice
Saag paneer side

BeanBag7 · 12/10/2019 18:04

You are making me so hungry, but I've already got dinner in the oven.
Indian would be half a chicken tikka Biryani and half of DHs lamb curry (its just called curry at our indian! No idea what sort it is)

Chinese is a pancake roll, kung po pork and special fried rice.

BeanBag7 · 12/10/2019 18:04

Or be a bit different and go for thai - beef massaman with sticky rice 🤤

YahBasic · 12/10/2019 18:08

Indian, not had a good curry in ages and DH has been going through a Chinese phase recently.

I’m planning on being hungover tomorrow and Indian is my cure all.

Indian order is normally butter chicken, lamb bhuna, rice, peshwari naan & poppadoms.

Chinese order is usually chicken sweet and sour, crispy chilli beef, egg fried rice, seaweed, chips and prawn crackers with extra sweet and sour sauce.

DippyAvocado · 12/10/2019 18:10

Indian. Chinese always makes me thirsty.
Chicken dhansak, pilau rice, saag aloo. Maybe a peshwari naan.

WWlOOlWW · 12/10/2019 18:16

Chicken chat, dansak and peshwari naan !

CaptainHammer · 12/10/2019 18:37
