Hi all, been browsing the recipe sections and can only find 2 recipes for a good old chicken curry, and I don't think they're suitable for feeding 4. I've made a batch of stew's base sauce which has been in the freezer a couple of weeks (had a bad stomach so no curries for me) and I'm ready to try my hand. Can anyone provide me with a recipe please using a base sauce suitable for 4 people?

Cheers, Lol

Hi Lol,

"Not good" by whose reckoning? Yours or the Asian couple?

The reason I ask is that the recipes here are primarily (but not exclusively) focused on the British style "BIR" Indian restaurants. Authentic Indian is quite different. I, like many others on this site, would take a British style Indian over an authentic dish any day of the week. Its a unique taste/texture/aroma that we are all trying to achieve!

Which recipe did you try? Welcome aboard.

Hi Josh, the curry was spoiled by my own overzealousness with the yoghurt trying to create more gravy and trying to protect my wife's pallate from the heat. It just took the edge off everything, i think it would have been okay but I fubared it. The byriani was followed to the letter and was,for my tastes, too wet. My Indian friends are too polite to criticise and ate three platefuls, but I know it wasn't as good as the one they cook because I've tasted it. Start of a steep learning curve I think ;D

Cheers, Lol

Hi all, just joined and looking to cook a proper curry. I'm good friends with an Asian couple so there's no pressure to perform! made a chicken biryani and chicken curry saturday, not good despite following the recipes 100%, so I will be trying the recipes here and picking peoples brains ;-)
