Seeing as I've been signed up for a while now thought it was about time to say hello and say thanks to all the contributors who have made my life as an expat bearable in this land where salt & pepper is considered exotic.

Finally got around to knocking up a few batches of base sauce over the past few weeks and without wanting to blow my own trumpet have managed to make better dishes in my own kitchen than I have tasted from any Indian restaurant here in Frankfurt.

Sterling work guys, I have a few pictures of some of the curries I've made so far and hopefully will get around to posting some up soon.
