Thanks for giving credit to the cookbook and the recipe.
very generous and honest of you.
Will have to try and make your recipe.. so I can give you credit somewhere in the future…
it is nice to see my baby, the cookbook, find itself recognized in this way.
Best,

Gracianne — it actually wasn’t all that hot. The chiles were just plain ol’ jalapeÃ±os, so not terribly big or terribly hot. Now, try this with ten habaneras. Heh. Oh, the idea of chowing vindaloo in Yorkshire… Chopper would be all over that. Me too!

EEEP: Updated to add: Chopper corrects me. They were Thai chiles. That’s what I get for not paying attention until the food’s on the table! Heh.

I love Red Dwarf! My Alpha-geek of a husband got me into it…

10 dried chilis? You sure need a beer to go with it to put out the fire. My husband will love this, him a pizza AND a vindaloo fan. I remember once we had a vindaloo in a restaurant in Yorkshire, by the second mouthful, big drops of sweat started to form on his brow, but he courageously finished it. Two years later, we go back and he orders a vindaloo: the waiter recognized him. I am sure he would love your kitchen Mrs D.

Kichenmage: Chopper insisted on the peas. They were really quite good. Surprisingly good, considering I don’t like peas. Naanpeazza? Wasn’t he Greedo’s off-screen sidekick?

Also: Yes, of course Domino’s is evil. Try convincing a bunch of cheap/hungry scifi gamer geeks of that, though. (Ahem, I say that as a sometime scifi gamer geek. One who has uttered many a cry of horror when a party host has picked up the phone to order up velveeta-on-cardboard.)

CC: cabbage and potatoes on pizza? Is this a new British Pub Pizza thing? Shall we try one with eels or tripe next?

BTW, one should always watch Galaxy Quest again. And again. And again. And again.

Elisson, what a veddy veddy loverly pome. All pizzas should have pomes, me thinks.

MM: Would you believe that one of Chopper’s and my very first flirty moments after we’d just met involved quoting* Red Dwarf at each other. Gads, we’re such geeks.

(*Everywhere I look reminds me of food. Look at these books: Charles Lamb, Herman Wok, the complete works of Sir Francis Bacon, Eric Van Lustbader…)

I’m gonna to eat you, little pizza! That is just phenomenal! And I luuuuuurve Red Dwarf - I used to watch it over & over again in UK and I still have the book! Oh nostalgia …

Oh, my ghosht. This is sounding veddy, veddy, veddy, veddy, veddy, veddy tasty indeed. I will be having to try it.

Pizza Vindaloo,
Good for me and you.
But oh, the pain it causes me
When I use the loo.

It’s almost fresh pea time here. (Hurry, hurry.)
So. Anyway. Cranky’s out getting a cuppa yesterday and I’m reading your blog. I call him on his cell and say “Go to the video store. Ask for Red Dwarf.”
He does.
The clerks say, “Oh, boo. We don’t carry it.”
So we watched Galaxy Quest again.
Isn’t it fun to mess with pizza? Got a sack of TJ’s ‘za dough in the fridge to try for the first time. I’m thinkin’ purple potatoes, shredded cabbage, something garlicky, and something whitish (cheese, thick yogurt…).

I’m there for the entire naanizza except for the peas. That’s just wrong! (and Cat would agree) Not to mention that then it might bave to be called peazza. Or naanpeazza…which was a monster from the third season, wasn’t it? LOL

btw, Domino’s? You know they are evil, right?
