Hi Bham curry,your  wheat allergy sounds about unbearable as Celiacs,you have to be so careful, don't you ?
We're still waiting from the hospital dietician for what he can eat to bulk him up Geoff

Hi bham curry,thanks for your pretty informed reply,haven't really thought about checking the spices to that degree.I think we've been pretty lucky in preparing his curries at the moment.The diagnosis is only three months new,so we're scratching around at the moment and have had to buy GF free curries from the shops,which in this present time is quite difficult.
Have seen a few recipes which will have to have a go at,they look quite interesting a d well informed too.
Cheers for the information Geoff

HI Folks,
Interesting topic,whilst I am in full agreement that a proper!? base is the real answer,I find that time offers some constraints and have to resort to kits in order to get a reasonable curry out in a speedy time(hospital appointments for two,with treatments and physio etc)
Have been using the Spice Tailor kits quite a bit which are more than passable,though on a recent questionnaire I did  I was reaching for the mango chutney more than usual.
Anyway in that vein I'm scratching around in the bottom of the freezer for a stray base or two! Cheers Geoff

Thanks Tempest63'can sympathise. with your problems,just hope there's a solution for you,40 years with Crohns is one helluva time,you've obviously worked your way through it.
As you can appreciate,this is all new to us,which is why I posted my request.Phil's Singapore noodle recipe is very tasty and welcome,as the Vietnamese scrambled egg.I'm sure there must be loads of recipes out there.
Have also done a version of 976bars quinoa recipe which went down well too,but am interested in the book,see what that throws up.Good luck with the Primal diet.

In most Indian shops/supermarkets around the Black Country Midlands they are selling the marinade as the paste because they can't get a relaable supply/delivery.They taste different too.I use the paste,when I can get it as a spread on pork belly draft before putting in the oven to crisp,same thing with the marinade is certainly different.
