Goan Vindaloo
- Free tracked UK shipping on orders over £30
Introduced to the coastal state of Goa in the 1500s by Portuguese sailors who travelled with their garlic-flavoured vinegar stew. Carne de Vinha d'alhos, or vindaloo, refers to meat cooked in wine and garlic. One of the most famous but also misrepresented Indian dishes, this version is packed full of its signature intense, tangy, garlicky and 'pickled pork' notes, and can be as hot or mild as you prefer.
Contains:
- An authentic Mrs Balbir Singh recipe card
- 1 x Goan Vindaloo blend (50g)
- Makes dish 2 times (serves 4 each time)

The worry for me was that this dish would be too fiery for my palate, however this was not the case. Wonderfully spicy and full of taste, with easy to follow directions on its construction. Would recommend.
I found this to be easier and quicker to prepare and cook than biriani or butter chicken and it was delicious. There was a smell of smokiness which I thought might affect the taste in a negative way but it actually enhanced it. I put three small green finger chillies in seeds inc, and it was just the right heat for me. I might slip in a red chilli next time hubby likes it quite hot.
Goan Vindaloo is the best curry powder I have ever had. It's much better than curry powder from supermarkets. The Rogan Josh is also excellent. Will be buying more products from Mrs Balbir Singh.
So far I have made two Goan Vindaloos (both chicken). In the first one I used only the green chillies with seeds, but in the second I put an additional 2 red Birds Eye chillies to give it more bite. Both were delicious, but the latter was more to my taste. I also gave some to my friend and neighbour, and they sent me a thank you text stating:-
“ Your curry was absolutely delicious! Lovely and hot but full flavoured! I loved it!!!”
