Hi All,
I bought one of these kits about 7 or 8 months ago. I actually spoke to the guy on the phone before I bought it and he assured me that the guide / cooking instructions were actually written by a working restaurant / take away chef. He was very helpfull and offered to answer any questions that I had before I committed to buy.
I made the base sauce and wasn't very impressed, but some bases are nothing special on their own, so I made the Madras. In my opinion it was pretty bad (containing 3 Tbs of lemon juice for 2-3 servings) that's what it tasted of. By the way, I don't know about anyone else here, but I have never had a Madras that even hints a taste of lemon.
I sent an email to them, as they said I should if I had any problems, saying that I thought the Madras was pretty bad and should there be so much lemon juice......... NO REPLY. I emailed again........NO REPLY.
After reading the above post from Curryholic, maybe I should try a different recipe from the 8 curries in the booklet.
Cheers All,
Blondie
