Actually I remember Sainsbury's Madras from the time I lived in England.

If I recall, it was actually pretty good for what it was.

Nowhere near BIR, but not a bad meal nonetheless.

you are not wrong, it tastes really scrummy. not quite bir, but still good grub, at  a third of the price of a real TA. i am tweaking my madras with a few of the ingredients from this recipe, like rapeseed oil , and some fresh red chilly, + yogurt. The sainsbury madras is obviously made from a base gravy, as it also has a nice runny sauce.  :P
