Best supermarket ready meal curry?

[SpeculativeHoumous]

I'm going for Sainsbury's Prawn Mahkani.. what else is good?

We think Morrissons are the best by far. A decent amount of good quality meat.

Booths chicken tikka massala beats m&s hands down

I second this and also the Charlie Bighams Green Thai Curry.

We don't get Booths dahn sahf unfortunately

Does the M&S masala taste of coconut?

Morrison's chicken balti and Waitrose chicken saag masala. Aldi chicken jalfrezi also excellent. Admittedly, except for Aldi's, I usually only buy these when they are on offer or otherwise reduced. M&S curries are overpriced now and not as good as they once were.

I used to like their butter chicken when we used go shop at Sainsbury's.

Came to say this, and their tikka masala is nice 👌

I also love Aldi butter chicken and chicken jalfrezi.

Prawn Makhani from Sainsbury's is my absolute favourite! I literally buy one every week except when it's out of stock and then I go for the hot chicken tikka masala which is nice. I also love the Charlie Bighams chicken tikka masala but it's pricey

I don’t like any of the orange chicken currys from the supermarkets. M&S do a nice range with tandoori chicken (dry), royal pilau rice, black lentil dhal and butter chicken samosas which is lovely.

Anjum Anand has written a few really good and easy Indian recipe books which will surprise you in terms of taste for the amount of effort if you want easy recipes.

No tbh I just want the nicest microwave curry

Any M&S, followed by any Waitrose

We get a takeaway , chicken tikka masala , chicken tikka balti , pilau rice , Bombay alloo and garlic nan for £22 on Saturday and then reheat leftover mains and veg on Tuesday which is a take on YMCA
( yesterdays muck cooked again )

Tesco Finest curries are really nice.

I surprised myself by really liking co-op’s microwave Chinese chicken curry. It’s really good (although I’m also good at making it from scratch).

Tuesday? Why such a gap?

Yes to the frozen paratha - so good!

I don’t buy ready meals, but really rate the Spice Tailor sauces.

Yes I agree, DH and I have this sometimes because it's cheaper and less hassle than getting a takeaway but almost as nice!

I second these.

M&S Butter Chicken.

Agree with M and S butter chicken. Sainsbury’s paneer tikka masala is pretty good too.

We had m&s ultimate chicken tikka masala the other week. It was awful. The chicken was horrid. They gave me a refund and a bit extra back as it went in the bin.

The new asda range seems better with two sides and two mains for a tenner.

I like the Spice Tailor range (I’ve got one in my cupboard right now :). I feel like I’ve put a bit of effort in with these as I still have to cook the chicken and rice, (well put it in the rice cooker). They taste much better than jar sauces (which I don’t buy nowadays). I usually make my own curry from scratch though.

The Cook range of curries taste like my home made ones.
Failing that M and S is a good bet.
