Urgent help required- burnt curry!

[Alan]

My new wife who's not made even a tea in her whole life ventured out to make a Khoya based curry while I wasn't there- But she used a steel vessel to dehydrate the milk to make khoya ( I normally use a non-stick pan)- The khoya has burnt a lil & has the burnt smell & taste- But she still put it in the curry, thinking that it can be covered up with lots of coriander leaves & garam masala powders . But even after all this, the curry still tastes bad- is there any way out?

She was panicking & called me at Office- I'm typing from office now- will be going home in half an hr.

Thanku !
Alan!

[Alan]

oh no! I thought you'd have some tip.......*sigh*

Sorry dude !

if tis burnt...dont take a risk of over powering it by adding something ! better to prepare something new !

I've put some pieces of bun in it- In the corner of my memory, I remember reading that slices of bread help in absorbing the burnt flavour- not too sure just giving it a try- since there's no bread here at the moment, I put in some bun.

yeah...bread helps in case of burnt rice... never tried it on other stuffs...

Hope the taste & aroma disappears from this one too!

...good luck...

Alan, bread helps! Put a slice of bread in the curry and cover it... good luck!

I wish I knew this "bread and bun" trick last week! I threw away a big pot of burnt vegetable curry last week. *sigh*
