    Got sorted in Tesco, the 'value' range was cheap as chips

    You should have bought 40 portions of chips so. You would have got 40 free forks with em and loads of napkins.

    Thanks Xiney. I have a 9 litre here but it won't be big enough. Need to cook curry for at least 20 people so need aroud 15 litres (I'd like to have seconds later too ya see :D)

    Will try Tommy Varden and the place you suggested. Thanks

    Could you not do the curry in two smaller pots and take your chances? Is it beef, lamb or chicken? Just wondering.

    I got a huge one (not sure of the capacity) in Atlantic Homecare (think its now Woodies) in the estate with the eye cinema. Got it for making soup and it makes a massive amount so must be close to 15 litres I'd guess

    Thing is at the 'location' i'll only have a 2 ring gas cooker. So one will be for curry, the other for rice. Good suggestion though

    Could you split between 2 9 litre pots, or is that too much hassle? Otherwise, if you know any chefs, try to borrow one, unless you plan making this a regular event!

    Good luck with the cooking!

    I was positive this was going to be an April Fools joke about you getting your own cookery show John Cleary . :)

    Would love some curry but draw the line at chicken though! Anything else is pushing an open door as they'd say in celtic tiger land.

    What's so funny about that, i'm a great 'normal food' cook. None of that fancy crap that wouldn't fill a rabbit though!

    You being a good cook is not funny , it's great!

    You being the next Jamie Oliver with a show called "John Cleary Cooks for Ireland" would be...unexpected more than funny I suppose :)

    Well I hope you're not eating meat today or you'll all burn in hell !!!
    Remember today is Good Friday the day Jebus was rescued from the French at Waterloo or something.

    As for your Curry I think a 15litre pot for 1.5 Kg of Chicken is way too big.
    Unless you're planning on another 3-4 Kgs of Veg lol.

    It's not being cooked until next week.

    There's going to be 2.5kg of chicken (25 people). There'll also be a good few spuds in there, along with plenty of veg (Peas, sweetcorn, carrots, broccoli)

    Couple that with the fact that it's being transported on a boat which will be bouncing up and down, I don't want the curry to be full to the brim of the pot.

    Make sense now? :pac:
