Looks pretty decent, Bob.

I'm not sure if posting images showing recipes from (what I assume is) a copyrighted publication is legally or morally sound though.

Maybe a moderator could keep us on the straight and narrow in this regard :)

I wouldn't worry to much about legality Garp, you have been happily contributing to a threat about hacking Tv Boxes with links searching for Unofficial add-on repositories.

I think you are confusing me with an entirely different person, my friend.

It doesn't surprise me, though, given your recent attacks on me, that you would make such a comment. Nor does it surprise me that it is completely unfounded.

If only we had a moderator.

Bob, in the top right hand corner of that page on Maunika's website you'll find links to her other recipes, categorised according to type (chicken, vegetable, etc). She's a "TV chef" but unlike some others her recipes all appear to be worth making.

I just did the Gobi ke Parathe, after following the links provided by sverige.  Spiced Cauliflower stuffed Indian Flatbread.  Delicious but I need to work on my forming process.

Ok Sverige will take a look at that! But hopefully most of the recipes will be in my new book

"New" is in "recently purchased", or "new" as in "in preparation" ?

The answer to that is in my opening post Phil.

In this instance, since the author has been recognised as the source, and the fact that this receipe is freely available on her website which we are linking too, I don't think she'd be too upset.  But i'm sure somebody will disagree.
I would suggest members think carefully before placing material on the site that they technically do not own.

A very tasty looking dish, Bob.  Did you use less tomato paste than in Maunika's recipe?  Her finished dish looks much more 'red' than in your pic.

Interesting that there's no garlic included in making the sauce - is there enough already from the tikka do you think?

Thanks for posting.  I'm going to try it out this evening!

Hi Alarmist10
Yes I agree, the original recipe is more red than mine. I can only assume she used more tomato paste , however I did follow the recipe to the letter. I hope you make it because it is one of the best curries I have ever made. I'd advise you not to alter anything, there is garlic in the original marinade, try it for what it is before you make your own adjustments is my advice however I'm very happy as it is.
PS Please make sure that you follow the tip of when adding the fenugreek leaves to rub them between your fingers to release the flavour. 

Regards
Bob

Followed the directions as you suggested Bob.....and it was really good!  Definitely on my list to repeat and repeat.  I'd recommend all lovers of tikks masala to try it out.  Thanks Bob.

Hi Bob

Alas I didn't take a picture because I still can't follow the process for posting.....that comes from being old and stupid!  The colour was just like you posted so I was more than happy.  Thanks again for the tips.
