Topic: Hi all from Southend

[BombayDuck]

Hi eveyone. I can't believe I've only just found this place as cooking curry or trying to achieve that authentic Bangladeshi flavour has been an obsession of mine for many years. I'm really looking forward into trying a few different things out, it has been a goal of mine to replicate a decent Madras for years and whilst I'm somewhat happy the results I get I love experimenting to trying and get closer to that BIR flavour.
To date my current base gravy has been a mixture of the curry secrets and Pat Chatmans version which uses celery, carrot and radish...so im very intruiged to try a few peeps bases out and other techniques.
hope I can contribute with at least some mouth watering pictures!

Greetings, Adam.

I'm sure you will find a decent Bangladeshi Madras on here. MadrasAndy and ChewyTikkas' are favourites of mine.

Base sauces galore too. JB's seems to be very popular at the moment, though I haven't tried it.

If you have a spare month, trawl through the posts and let us know how you get on.

Look forward to your contributions and pics are always welcome

Thanks for the warm welcome peeps...I was just looking over MadrasAndy's Madras, definitely gonna try that one out, both that one and chewys use the Worcester sauce so I'm looking forward to tasting how that turns out!
