Thanks for the reply re the coconut "block" naga - thanks to your tesco link I was able to find what I was looking for in the Indian Spice shop, silly me, I didn?t realise "block" was, in fact "creamed Coconut" I?ll now be trying out a madras or two using this base  :)

Hi and thanks for the reply. I don?t think I can get coconut milk powder either  :( My only chance is a small indian spice shop that supplies the restaurants, so it may be worth me asking in there - although all I have ever seen in there is dessicated coconut and milk. What exactly is "Coconut block"? Is it a chilled product or to be found on the shelf? I?m in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands

Is there an alternative to using "coconut block"? I am unable to buy it where I live, would a quantity of coconut milk produce the same results does anyone know?

I?ve just cooked my 2nd BIR style curry, using a different base to this one - what a disappointment! I will definately be going back to using this base - it is spot on - not only is it rich and flavourful, but the consistency looks a lot better, and its simpler to make than some of the other bases. I?m still learning so I can?t blame the recipe of the one I have just made - perhaps I did something wrong during the cooking process? The finished Madras was bland and watery. I used it with same  Veg Madras recipe that I used for my first curry. Will definately stick to this from now on!

It?s ok, I think I?ve sussed it - Bruce Edwards??

It was gorgeous! Still sinking in with me that it?s possible to create a dish like that at home! Have been buying curry sauces from a jar for years - think I?ve turned a corner now... ;D
