Topic: Hello

[savage]

Found this site tonight and there looks to be loads of information on here. I will be reading and trying the advice with interest.
I have been trying to make a good curry for more years than I care to admit to. Perhaps it is living very close to the Balti belt in Birmingham and having so much choice that I am just not being reslistic expecting to "clone" the taste sensation that I can buy on practically every corner within minites of home?
To me its like you just cant re-create chip shop chips at home. It must be about the quantities produced and the flavours that are in the oil after frying the fish, roe, chicken etc.that cook into the chips.
I know I must sound really miserable. I promise you I am not. I am frustrated after trying just about every recipie, style, and not really acheiving that authentic flavour after about 30 years trying ;D Serious.
My wife loves my curry and it is nice, but it aint the real McCoy and I dont think it is possible at home.
The closest I came to was the curry secret, which starts with the sauce as I have read on here and that is what I try and vary with varying success.
OMG. look at how I have gone on!
Sorry, but i am passionate about my curry and have a feeling I may find the answers here that I am looking for.

Hi Savage

Welcome to the best curry forum money can't buy.

Start off with a good curry base and the rest is easy ...

Look forward to future posts from the Balti belt of Brum.

Balti belt of Brum.

Is that like one of those weight lifters belts that stop your guts from exploding? Actually that would be pretty useful after a Balti phall!
