When I made Chewys Madras i used a tsp of regular chilli powder cos the Kashmiri chilli p in my local spice shop would blow your head off!! a half tsp would equal a tsp of regular stuff! ,
I have to agree with there being a lack of decent Curry houses I live in Dublin  and there used to be some VERY good ones and now best ones are the upmarket ones where it costs an arm n a leg for a meal for 2, there's a few very decent ones but it's hit n miss so much so i can remember specific curries going back 3 years or so especially when i'd encounter an absolute belter which is about once a year

Thanks lads I think I'll get it, is the Madras as good as Chewtikkas in your opinion? And do you think it really makes much difference using a different base? I use Curry2Go's one and did with Chewys Madras + his Mix powder

Thanks Haldi!
As mad as it sounds I'd pay 50 quid for a cookbook that divulged the little tricks etc and I'm not that fussed on lots of recipes tbh I'd like 4 or 5 max a Balti Madras Vindaloo Garlic Chill and the like cos if i could reproduce these I'd be well happy, you recommend the Glasgow pdf is that on this site Haldi?

Thanks again!!      ps sorry for late reply my internet was gone!

What book was this mate? Care to share public or PM? I have Julians books, they're awesome. But would love to get that book you're talking about.

Thanks
Not sure how to reply to copy n pasted texts, No pal i was saying i would pay that much if an e book could guarantee the results!, Cheers

There seems to be a fair bit of bitchiness on this alright but then again everyone's entitled to their opinion, now a fair question, i would appreciate an honest answer please, has anyone tried any of the recipes in Julians new E-Book and if yes what were the results like? I bought the first one and wasn't really impressed first off with the results and secondly with the clerical mistakes that were eventually corrected, i would buy the 2nd one if i could obtain ONE recipe that's as good as a good take-away,
Some of you recommended Chewytikkas Chicken Madras recipe so i tried it and i was told by my other half it was the best yet!! i loved it too. i was a bit sceptical as to the simplicity of it but it was the closest dish yet, using Julians Base from Curry2go too,

thanks in advance people :-)

Hello people i started a thread a while back asking what was the best Madras recipe in their personal opinion and can't find it but this will do as it's the Recipe i was recommended and i have to say i was slightly sceptical to begin with as it seemed too simple but i was wrong it was DELICIOUS THANK YOU CHEWYTIKKA!!! i have Julians ebook and had his base in my freezer for months after falling out of love with cooking curry and decided to give this a go ,well all was going well till i added a teaspoon of mango chutney near the end of the finishing the curry out of habit and prior to this it tasted lovely, in fairness Julian recommended a half t spoon i think but i was a little tipsy and got all cheffy lol and it ruined it, so last night i followed the recipe to a tee but using the base gravy i had and Julians mix P and HALLEJUAH beautiful!!!! thanks again and was told it was the BEST curry I've cooked, my Missus reminded me 'less is more sometimes' and so true for this Curry, Thanks people

Lets Talk Curry / Best Curry
« on: January 07, 2014, 10:08 PM »
Hi everyone i joined this website over a year ago and never really gave it a proper go, i had bought Julians ebook and thought that was it i'll be a master curry maker, after lots of attempts at a couple of different curries 2 or 3 of them (Madras) were extra good and i rattled my brain to think what i did differently but couldn't think of anything, anyway i decided to come back and try and reignite my interest in curry making! i have a few portions of curry2go's base in my freezer but it's about 4 months since i rustled up a Ruby, so my question is, could someone point me in the direction of the best Madras (in their opinion so as not to insult anyone) please? that would be greatly appreciated !!! thanks
