Does look very nice
for me the gravy looks perfect not too much
just enough so to cling to the potatoes

Looks pretty average to me.. Perhaps you should post the recipe and go for a second opinion

I prefer a bit more sauce but they don't look too bad. Of course it'll be the taste that's the clincher.

Well, OK, they taste of /spicy/ potatoes, but a very different flavour to what you might think of as "curried potatoes".  That is, they will be sufficiently different in flavour to your main course that you will instinctively ask yourself "I wonder which spices they used to make this [1] ?  It's rather nice ...".  Sorry that that is so vague : your best bet is to treat yourself to a portion and then you will know for sure.

Panch phoran plus additions (e.g., chilli, turmeric, ...  maybe even hing !).

They look nice to me although I love Bombay Potato's. I'll definitely be giving the book a whirl. With the amount I've spent on magazines and cookery books in my life time, I'm sure another one won't make a difference and if I learn something new and its all in one place, I'll be happy.

On a similar note, I would like to see an ebook done by the more senior members who can knock out nice stuff containing their best 'House Specialty' dishes and sell it with the proceeds going to cancer research or some other worthy charity. A section on cooking large amounts (50 - 100) would be good (that would be you 976bar, your Uni nights always look fantastic). I would buy that book as well.

What a great idea, and how nice to see altruism at the fore.  If the book is to be multi-ethnic I will gladly contribute "Chicken with chilli & black bean sauce" and "Chicken with chinese mushroom in oyster sauce".  Once upon a time I would have offered paella and arroz con pollo e con pesce, but my Spanish skills are now so rusty that I am no longer convinced I can replicate them.
