I just want one recipe:-
how to make a perfect madras
or tell me why it's not possible

I don't care about all the other fancy stuff

Pretty much my view (although the perfect bhuna would be a nice addition).

I noticed that as soon as Julian announced his book to be released on 28th Feb, it spurred Chris on to release 3 new videos almost immediately.  Rogan josh, lamb naga and lamb nawabi

Proof is in the tasting.
I have made the vindaloo to spec albeit using chicken and it was fabulous.
A lesson here for me in getting back to basics and this is certainly basic.
I think you can go overboard trying new additions and tweaks etc to the point that the basic flavours get very muddled.
If you haven't tried this then do so. Don't be put off by the suggestion that this is very hot. You can adjust the heat to taste.
Looking forward to the new ebook too even at

CBM's second book "with help from Adey" is priced keenly at only

i have had a meal there , the wife and my self had a very good meal great staff and the man him self is a very welcoming and knowledgeable  chef , the place its self is small so if your thinking of going when your in Boston book 1st ( Ivan )

Ordered this and received the pdf by return. No problems.
Would add though that I looked yesterday on receipt of email and safari was having problems with the link on my iPad. Maybe that is because the release date is officially today, I don't know.

Also now have CBM's part 2 and having had time to look through it would recommend it. Much less waffle than Julian's  but some may enjoy the other issues covered by him.

I appreciate that

I'm hovering over the buy button but holding myself back.

Against
1. I have loads of recipes from ebooks and this site already
2. A bit expensive if it just adds some slightly different adjustments from the standard BIR curries

For
1. Loads of new videos linked through the ebook
2. New Base to try

Not sure there is much else

Buy it
Then let us know if we should
