Hello to everyone   a pleasure to join such a wonderful collection of curryheads, all with the same purpose, to make the perfect curry. i love the site, such a joy to see so many people put so much effort into what ultimately becomes the finest banquet on the planet, curry, rice, naan or chapati and a cold beer!  can't imagine life without. i look forward to many years of fine dining, and with such talent out there, i'm going to be a very happy fella

Made first curry last night, so thought i'd better report.

Started with a base by NOBLE OX who roasted all his veg, and with the addition of an apple, i put everything in a roasting bag and gave it a go. came out a little to sweet for my taste, as it was a base for a chicken tikka madras. a lovely gravy all the same. i would think this base would be excellent for kormas, tikka masalas or even a dhansak. it was obvious the roasting brought out all the sugars in the onions,garlic and carrots etc. nonetheless, i thought it was a vast improvement on what i would normally have done, so well done noble ox will be back soon, but before i go i'll leave some pics of my first effort!
