Title: Hi From the North East
Post by: BigKeith on April 21, 2009, 04:20 PM

I stumbled across this fantastic resource only last week, and am completely hooked.

I've attempted several curry's in the past, trying to produce something that resembles a decent curry without any real success, let alone a BIR curry. I'd made a base from a different website on a couple of occasions, but thought it fell short of the mark. At the weekend I decided on this base http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=1894.0 mainly because is seemed to produce a small enough quantity to give it a try. The results? amazing! I made a Prawn Bhuna on Saturday, with a really nice Dhall and plain rice. I topped it off with my own roti's and a bottle of Kingfisher. It was so good that we had the exact same meal on the Sunday too. My Saturdays are now occupied peeling onions  :'( and visiting my local Indian Supermarket.
Now I'm more confident in my base cooking I'll attempt a different recipe for this weekend, I'm open to suggestions - preferably with links  ;)

A BIG thanks to everyone who posts to this website, without which I would have floundered in vain in my search for a decent home made curry.

Thanks guys,
We both like our curry's on the hot side, so a madras could be on the cards this weekend.

The wife's a seafood eating veggie, so I might go for a duo of curry's (his and hers should we say), or a Saal Aloo, or a king prawn Jalfrezi or.... oh my god, I'll have to sell my Xbox now  ;D
