Have you tried anything else from them?

No, afraid not Goncalo. I only tried the prawn suka because it was chosen for me by Rob in the secret tests.
There was no balance to the dish, even with a squirt of lemon that Ali told me to add via email.
The recipe shown on youtube has to be incomplete. 

AH! I thought you meant you visited the restaurant. I am disheartened that they shared a mix powder and use a completely different one. Also that some recipes just aren't captured with method. They just go in at whatever stage they happen to be, rather than from the ground up.

Ohh, did i forget to mention... the predominant flavour in this naga masala powder is.. . . . . you guessed it,
FENNEL  ;D

Interesting topic Frank. I was about to mention that perhaps you might ought to look at the naga masala, so that clears that up.

I don't think i've ever come across fennel powder but I do understand the sweetness in the flavour and as they are actually a fruit and not a seed, it kinda makes sense too.

I only have Aniseed in my spice cupboard these days as I prefer it to fennel. I'm sure I could use this but it might be a little overpowering, though the subtle hint of heat you get from it might work well.
