Looks superb Rich!  8)

Which recipe?

I have to say that your dishes (I don't mean the balti dishes!) look excellent!  Great colour, consistency, texture and oil separation!  Very well done!  8)

Hello Rich,

As I have said, I am VERY impressed with your photos of all of your dishes!

I know you have said that the only thing that you have "photo-shopped" is the shadow around your balti dishes, but, I can't help noticing that EVERY photo is of a brilliant looking curry AND that the balti dish looks ABSOLUTELY identical (alignment, light reflection, positioning, shadows, etc)?

No offence, but hopefully all of your photos are totally pukka!?  :P  They are the best photos of curries I have ever seen!  8)

If they are, I take my hat off to you (for cooking ability AND presentation AND photographic skills!)!  :P

HI Mate

heres the original - you can see its not that great with the paper under it and the tiles in the back ground and with the natural shadow from the flash gun

The curries i make everyday so they should be ok and its easy to put the dish on the paper in the same position on the floor using back light from the window and fill flash from the front

so yes mate they are all as is - they are real

best, Rich

Hi loveitspicy

Well, to quote Bobby Bhuna a member who has not posted for a while who put it so eloquently in a previous post:

'Phwoar curry porn'

Thanks for sharing pictures... am desperate for a curry now after seeing that!

How would you say the taste of your dishes compares to a real restaurant / TA?

All the best

Hi Rich
Your Bhuna looks on the money, which ever way you look at it.
In fact it looks that good, I thought it was one of mine for a minute ...LOL ;D

Are you sure you weren't cooking in South Shields last night?

Looks amazing Rich,

Well done!!

Can you tell me how you add the shadowing, and recolour the surround?I am just getting into photography, and trying to pick up some tips!!I have Photoshop Lightroom, but find picasa a nice simple tool.

Any hints/tips greatly appreciated(Maybe needs to be in another thread??)

Regards

Matt

this Bhuna smells and tastes as good as any i had in the UK and the recipe is very very similar to CA's - i will have a go at making a video soonish and try and put that somewhere  - not promising on that just yet but it will happen.

best, Rich

Thanks mate it is close to yours i guess - it got a lot of Thai noses sniffing in the air when making them yesterday.

South Shields what a place just love it haven't been there for a while now - love all that coast line there back down from there to Sunderland - like that bar somewhere on that coast which you go down in lift and its in the cliff at the bottom and some another in railway carriages. As far as South Shields goes i remember a couple of curry houses and bars (don't recall there names i'm afraid) on a lovely street from the sea end and the mouth of the river towards the start of the pedestrian area might have been sea road or beach road.
And going back 40+ years ago i actually attained my teaching certificate in canoing on the sea at South Shields.
best, Rich

p.s. just love looking at the great pic in the restaurant - the food looks fantastic
