thanks again for your time, i'll go for the cook fully  night before and microwave at work, cheers,bob.

hi guys, I also really unclebucks chilli, had it 4 or 5 times now, although less chillies for me too, I would like to try this in a slow cooker, could anyone give me some points on how to go about it? ie, do I prepare and cook it the same but put in slow cooker instead of leaving on the hob? or is it all done in the slow cooker? also how long for? mush appreiciate any help, cheers, bob.

thanks for your reply fried, I've taken on board your info and I'll hold on for now with the spiced oil, what I done last time because I had no spiced oil, I used vegetable oil but added 2 tsps. of mr naga to it, not sure if this if normal practice or if anyone else would do it but it tasted and smelt good. cheers, bob.

welcome to the site Gino, I've also recently joined after getting the cooking curry bug, there is loads of helpful information on here and loads of members willing to help out, I personally started to try to copy CA's base and recipes with some good results, I think it will be a long enjoyable journey making these curries, I'm sure you will also have success, all the best, bob.

thanks for your replies, I went through the rest of the process properly, the base looks and smells pretty good, I'll make a curry tomorrow and let you know the results and I'll try to post some pictures, then next time I'll do it the right way and see if there's much difference. thanks again, bob.
