Les Jones AKA Cory Ander sticks his head above the parapet ;D ;D
Obviously he must be new to cooking BIR style or Australian Indian Restaurant style
He seems a bit confused ;D
https://youtu.be/ilBQr4DlGJg
He doesn't half waffle on a bit with plenty of excuses ;D ;D
-
Had to turn it off by the time the curry leaves went in, was completely bored and his monotone voice was grating on me.

Why all of a sudden over the last twelve months do we have a glut of budding Spielbergs? It seems to me to be more about inflating ones ego and self (and site) promotion rather BIR cooking. Instructive videos on BIR have been posted or linked on this site for years now ::) I'd much sooner watch proper BIR kitchen action than these primadonna efforts :-\
I'm sure some will say what an oscar winning performance, elsewhere ;D But they would, wouldn't they :P :P :P
-
Ok i watched it to the end - having watched it i wont be in a hurry to watch another i'm afraid - shame really because he did have a couple of nice recipes on this site -
No probs with anyone doing vids -
best, Rich

From the man who started his own curry forum and swears by high heat.
Oil into cold pan, mustard seeds into cold oil, and 2 whole minutes before they start to crackle!! ;D
He must have a deathwish.
-
Horrible example of Bir cooking ;D
-
After reading some of his propaganda and spiel I almost believed he could cook a decent curry
Not any more
What a D+++head

He could talk a glass eye to sleep.

By Alchemist about us.
A great example of a set of people who do nothing and throw rocks at anything anybody produces
Hahaha. Perhaps Alchemist should change his name to Toenails. ;D
-
I've said it before, and I'll say it again -- every time you even /mention/ he who must not be named, no matter how defamatory (or inflammatory) your comments, you feed his already seriously-over-inflated ego.
Ignore everything that he does, and he will finally realise what a sad and irrelevant has-been he has become.

I might bring out my
Shepherds Pie video
-
I get that a lot of you don't like the guy, but at least try to judge the video fairly. It can't really be critiqued on the recipe since he said it's an Aussie madras cooked in a BIR style, and who the hell knows what that should have in it? If it was meant to be a BIR curry I could pick plenty of holes, but an Aussie curry could be anything as far as I know.
No, I can't criticise his recipe and to be fair it looked like a tasty enough dish. I'd eat it and enjoy it I'm sure. I could criticise the quality of his video production but what's the point of that? He's said its his first ever and I'm sure he will improve his results. He might even discover the power of editing and adding narration in the edit, instead of dodgy ambient audio.
So overall, apart from your prior dislike of the guy, I can't see much reason to be so down on the video. Some of you are just showing your nasty side.
-
It was not that bad and considering it was his first attempt he should be pleased with himself i think,i will give the recipe ago it will be interesting to taste the ausie take on a madras and it looked quite tasty,i look forward to more of his videos and recipes.
-
No sympathy judgment from me, if you like his style of vids I'm sure he has a sweet little space reserved for anyone interested.
-
Notice they've locked off the guests can browse bit and now its registered users. Not that that makes a difference lol.

Lol, Gav I have never been back I was scared for life ;D

You havent missed a single thing , apart from you winning an award for mix powder, collected on your behalf by Dan Sak :D
Strikes me that certain people would be better off spending their time sat on their Uncles lap with the Madhur Jeffreys rather than the Delia Smiths, or maybe throwing bombay mix at restaurant staff :o
-
Seriously?
Way too much oil for my liking.
Pan was nowhere near hot enough before adding the oil, and the oil was nowhere near hot enough before adding the mustard seeds.
BIR without pre cooked chicken? Maybe AIR?
The guy criticises anyone that does not conform to traditional BIR methods or recipes yet he posts up that crap.... He needs to ban himself from his website!

My sentiments exactly.

I don't consider myself to be a particuarly good BIR chef, but those are some novice mistakes to make, especially if your promoting your own BIR website & forum.

Couldnt agree more
-
I agree the cooking was novicey but i think he was concentrating more on getting his first video out there,like i said i would try the recipe to see how the ausie madras compares to ours as it is my favourite dish and i did come across a madras in coventry that had a lot of mustard seeds in it and very nice it was too,
As for the bombay mix madrasandy,not as bad as it sounds,we have both had a laugh over that while playing a game of snooker since then,you may get the chance to ask him yourself if i have finally convinced him to join up.
-
I must say,ca's korma is still my goto recipe if anyone ever fancies a korma.
That said, the youtube video was very awkward to watch.Should have employed some editing skills.

Just been in the bath has the mustard seeds started popping yet

Nope they are still sat bored to death and not sizzling

Pauly has locked the thread on the other place because of my honest comments unbelievable attitude will consantrate my efforts here I'm sure they will read this if it's allowed to stay on here! The other site is doomed captain mainwaring
CAB.

He's done more than lock it CAB, he's deleted it :o
Based on his henchman's comment, the boss doesn't even get to take issue with anybody that isn't happy with the direction of the forum. If it isn't positive and agreeable it'll get deleted. I think there was more freedom of speech in Hitler's Germany than in AdolfAnder's site. You're training your mods well Bruce ::)

Just checked into this thread again
"Just been in the bath has the mustard seeds started popping yet" has made my weekend - i have to say i did laugh out loud at this CAB - excellent !

Glad you have finally seen the light Cab, that place is certainly strange, even snoopy is afraid to post now. It might be chaotic on here but you have a freedom of speech and all the info you could possibly need for true bir cooking.

My coment re mustard seed was meant to be light hearted and he was obviously very upset and I did send him an apology! This is what he saying
Bob,
Do you not understand the intent and the hatred in which that thread was posted, responded to and which you so willingly supported with your ridicule? Do you not understand how it must feel to be on the receiving end of such incessant hatred, ridicule and downright lies? If not, you are undoubtedly better off there than here. It' s what they are best at. If that floats your boat, then so be it.
-
Bob, private messages really should stay private IMHO.

I think it's good to know how these other curry forum sites operate, It makes one appreciate the amount of freedom we do have on cr0. ;D

Maybe he should concentrate on his own camp ::)rather than reading what is posted on here as he is no longer a member ::) so all things 'curry rejects online' should not concern the great curry master
-

Yes that's probably true Sverige but maybe I was trying to put his side of the story over
I've no idea what's gone on in the past between him and other members but in my case I feel that CA and pauly are well out of order I'm fed up with them sending me stupid PM that's why I left.
I would suspect that he's been doing this to other previous members of his forum trying to bully people doesn't work.

Hey all, I recently revived this extract emailed from a long term member of a well known forum, this member was shocked at how the bigwigs think it's ok to post rubbish like this and then punish or dictate to others who express their opinion.
Must say I think this member is correct in there opinion, this member believed this was a direct attack aimed at the likes of myself and others creative members of this forum.

I have to agree with Phil at Reply#10 (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,14272.msg124815.html#msg124815). This thread is going nowhere useful or constructive IMHO.
-
Bob, private messages really should stay private IMHO.
This has been debated before with members having differing views. A like comparison may be the disclosure of certain information from a confidential government report, leaked in the belief that the public should know. In this instance I think the "leak" is in the best interests of the public which is why CAB chose to share the PM
I think it's good to know how these other curry forum sites operate, It makes one appreciate the amount of freedom we do have on cr0. ;D
Totally agree Les. There certainly have been the occasional time in the past when things seemingly have been gotten somewhat out of hand but this doesn't happen often. Given the choice of the occasional spat breaking out or that of constant censorship, having to look over one's shoulder and watch your "p's & q's" I much prefer the feedom here.
Maybe he should concentrate on his own camp ::)rather than reading what is posted on here as he is no longer a member ::) so all things 'curry rejects online' should not concern the great curry master
;D ;D He's doing exactly the same as I know certain members on here are MA, keeping a watchful eye. The only difference though, is that over there vitriloic PMs will be sent about members posting activities over here ::)
And just to clarify, we are "community rejects on line" There is nothing wrong with our curry otherwise Ander wouldn't be working so hard at replicating everything here, other than the freedom we enjoy thanks to Stu ::)

........... So that's the pedantic plonker whose site I backed off from after some fierce criticism directed at me there.
Doesn't look too clever at showing off the real practical skills necessary for bringing out the spice flavours nor is his 'dialogue' excellent inspirational. No doubt a legend in his own lunchtime.

High output jet afterburner
-
High output jet afterburner? Hardly.
Its just an outdoor gas stove on a medium flame. And most probably on a low pressure regulator which ive only realised myself after recently watching a video showing what can be achieved with the correct regulator. (i also have the wrong regulator for a decent flame on my outdoor burner)
This video is supposed to be a test between high and low heat. But when BI tells CA he needs more heat and to turn the third ring on, he bottles out. ::)
edit:
But,, i still dont think the third ring would make a lot of difference. Its all to do with the regulator.

To be quite honest, I was more interested in the conversation the two women 'off camera were having
