which is the best pan for cooking curries from scratch with regards to non sticking, size and shape

is a wok as good as a karahi to cook a curry in. I have been watching rick stein in India and he uses a karahi   for his cooking?
where is a good place to buy a karahi and what size?

Hi Gordon,
I'm glad it was the latter as i cant resist buying a portion myself whenever i've seen it, but never from a restaurant.
I've always kept my curry and snack purchasing to seperate outlets. e.g. madras korma etc from the BIR, samosas, bhajis, masala fish from the Pakistani TA's.
The restaurants dont come close to producing great tasting street food but are specialists in your basic curries. (although not anymore it seems    )

I dont have a recipe nor can i remember making it for many years, but i'd be inclined to grill or roast in the oven as its never looked or tasted fried to me.
I would go with a simple yoghurt marination to start with and work from that.
Here's a recipe i plucked from the net: http://www.grouprecipes.com/35472/masala-fish.html

Looks like a good starting point.

Cheers, Frank. 

Cheers for that it looks good

What is it youre actually after nodrog?
A fish curry with sauce or as i know it, Masala fish which are dry hunks of firm white fish cooked in a tandoor. Usually sold by weight. (delicious and meaty!  )

it's the dry white fish
when in restaurants the fish looks to be marinated and then fried its usually a starter i think

can anyone point me in the right direction for the best way to make fish massal
many thanks
