Hi Weggo!!! and welcome. I am also new. Are you from Leicester, i am near you too in Burbage

Hi juju and welcome to you as well. Yes Leicester born and bred. Burbage, worked there years ago when I was an apprentice joiner on a site which I cannot remember the name of.   I had a realy nice curry not far from you a couple of months ago in Hinkley, havn`t a clue of what the place was called as I was taken there by a friend who lived localy. Any good curry houses near you ?
Hi to everyone else and thanks for the warm welcome, looking forward to delveing through the site and soaking up the knowlege.

I`m moving to Perth Australia soon and this site may well just save my life! After many trips down under I still havn`t found the restaurant style curries I love and always crave my BIR in Leicester  ( The Taj Mahal )
I have spent many years trying to get that taste with my own efforts but its only since I purchased Kris Dhillons book have I got anywhere near. Near has been great but this site with all its curry fanatics and experts should help things get fantastic.
My only thoughts on the base taste are with all the thousands of restaurants and takeaways getting the taste right it cannot be rocket science. I dont think its all down to a secrete ingredient thats missing I think its all down to technique and quantity produced. ( I think ! )
Having just read Fat Lez`s piece in the lets talk curry 18th May 2006 I think he`s spot on with his thoughts. Keep thinking Lez.
Anyway guys and gals keep the great work up and POWER TO THE CURRY !

Weggo
