These are recopies from a bloke who claims to have decades in the restaurant trade including Indian.  Looks very good and worth a look.  This man clearly knows what hes doing.

LAMB BHUNA Indian Curry (Professional Restaurant Recipe)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f3keyUPqxM

Found this video on YouTube and it shows a working BIR kitchen.  There might be some hints or clues to be gleaned hopefully.

my TA curry being cooked.

I still make this regularly on request but recently hit on a cooking technique that improves all curries and includes double cooking of the base.

Oh balls!!  Its been a while since Ive posted on here so wasnt sure if these videos were known on here.  Oh well, the quest goes on.

Found this on YouTube and its an Indian takeaway showing how to cook various recipes.  The chefs apron says Dial a Curry which is a chain of takeaways in various parts of the country.  Apologies if the videos already on here, either way they are very good.

Here is a Tikka Massala video but check out the others by this poster;


How to make tikka massala

I had my most successful curry of all time with CK's lamb bhuna, I used admins new base to make it, brilliant.

Agreed Scotty but what annoyed me was the fact that the presenters were laughing and grinning broadly as they were comentating on the disgusting things that were happening.  Would they have been so light hearted if it was a non Muslims praparing food for Muslim? 

These dirty buggers used the sink 5 times a day as they were Muslim and obliged to wash before praying, which leads me to think that if a restaurant doesnt have a changing room then a lot will use the kitchen sink.

Did anyone see Rogue Restaurants on BBC1 last night 14th August 2008.  Hidden cameras were planted in two Indian restaurants in London and showed some of the most disgusting things imaginable.  One clip showed an Indian cheff washing in the kitchen sink where the food is prapared and washed his feet, hands, face and then emptied his nostrils into the sink.  It has put me off Indian restaurants for life.  Just think, this could be the missing "taste" that we are looking for.

Have made and used all of this base now, it was good and very flexible.
