Maybe Mr Waitrose is worried about the pirates from the Jamaica Inn, Or the beast up on Bodmin moor  ;D

Thanks,  just sent him a PM, hope he sees it, does he stll use the forum?

What base gravy recipe does he use for the Chicken Rogan Josh BIR
.

Q1 yes, last post on here May 5
Q2 don't know

. I'd go as far as saying a chilled food biriani from M&S or Waitrose probably tastes better, at a fraction of the cost.

Totally agree 100% with you there George, There are some really crap biryani's coming out of BIR places lately, (and curry's)  My local BIR does not make a veg curry to go with the biryani, just some weak tasting curry sauce that tastes like dish water.
If BIR's want to charge such high prices, then let's have some high quality food. The business rates are their problem not ours. If Thea can't afford the rates, then get out of the BIR business.
Nuff said, I'll get off me soap box now.

I think bottled or packet mix's are supposed to make more home made style curry's, rather than BIR, so they will never come close to restaurant style cooking.

The Celtnet.org site is already closed down Les.  This link is to an archived snapshot of the web from a few years ago. I'm not sure how long these archives last. To be honest, and to give credit where due, I only found it after Phil illustrated how he was able to unearth another lost site for someone.  I then applied his principle to dig the Celtnet.org site archives out.  I had previously found it to be a treasure chest of interesting and unique recipes and formula and I thought it was lost for good.

Thanks for the info Livo, I'll print myself off a few recipes while the link is still there, (for future use).
Glad to see that you and Phil are back on speaking term's...lol, Life is to short for this non-talking crap.

Glad you found the archived site useful Les. Not fully functional but still a valuable resource. I've been dragging as much as I can from it before it disappears. Lack of money and a huge job made it unworkable for the site admin. Such a shame.

I to think that this is a good source of info, and some of these curry powder recipes I'm going to try out, (just to see what the taste is like)
So thanks for putting it up for us Livo. It's a shame that it may close down.

Might be barking up the wrong tree. But could this be what you are referring to
