Hi

Newbie to this forum, now retired i have more time to read and strive to recreate the meals i enjoy at our many curry houses, i find making the gravy therapeutic, and enjoy cooking up a curry on the hob, i also recently treated myself to a Tandoor oven, stick blender and two cast iron woks. when in my local asian store im as happy as a pig in ****

Welcome Micky.

Sounds like you have got the retirement thing worked out to perfection.

Look forward to your contributions; especially from that new tandoor

Thanks, i have "run it in"  and worked out you need a good "bed" of charcoal to get it up to a good temperature, also i will try and utilise the heat to cook stuff for the next day / freeze, i also bought a 40ltr second hand stock pot off eBay  so when i do the gravy i go large lol, i will cook up the next batch outside in september to last me through the winter.

As i write, six naga chilli plants are growing up behind me, and the curry leaf tree is budding.

If curry had to be injected i would look like a pin cushion
