National Curry Week: BANG!’s guide to the ultimate curry night in

This week, we’ve been going all out with the National Curry Week celebrations (probably the best week ever if we’re being completely honest)! So, if you want to know how to have the ultimate curry night in according to BANG! Curry – keep reading. 

Choose your curry buddy

While the pandemic might mean you shouldn’t be inviting your third cousins twice removed, your best friend’s hairdresser and your favourite primary school teacher round for a curry night – you can certainly have your best curry buddy by your side. And seeing as BANG! Curry spice kits serve four, you’re all set for a delicious feast with your chosen curry connoisseurs. 

Turn up the tunes

Cooking a curry in silence isn’t something the BANG! Curry team are familiar with. In fact, it’s practically unheard of for us. There’s just something about mixing that curry sauce with your favourite mix on in the background! So choose your favourite fiery playlist, crank up the banging tunes and get stuck in.

And if you’re looking for something a little more mellow, we’ve already taken our spices to the next level and created a relaxing blend of music you can cook along to! Check out BANG! Curry Spice Mix volume 1 on Spotify – it’s the perfect playlist length for creating a BANG! Curry.

Gather your curry accompaniments

Chutney addict? Lime pickle lover? Naan bread fiend? Salad fan? Whatever your preferred accompaniments, make sure you’ve factored them into your meal ahead of time. And whatever you do, don’t forget about drinks! Whether it’s a soft drink, glass of wine or a classic pint of beer – get it on your shopping list. This National Curry Week, we’ve been loving a chilled Kingfisher beer with a rich and tasty curry.

Select your favourite ingredients

What makes curries so magical is the fact you can add whatever you want to them! White meat, red meat, vegetables or seafood – the choice is completely up to you. And with BANG! Curry spice kits, they’re so versatile the opportunities are literally endless. Head to our recipe page if you’re in need of some more inspiration, then get your favourite ingredients at the ready.

Get cooking!

The last and most important point to the ultimate curry night in – have fun! As you chop, grate and stir your way to a delicious curry, don’t forget to take it all in. The smells, the flavours, the colours – they’re all part of the experience. So get stuck in, and get ready to make your curry night go off with a bang!
