Topic: Kris Dillon The new curry secret

[tempest63]

Flicking through the new curry secret by Kris Dillon in waterstones I see he has a new base sauce. It is very basic with onions, garlic, ginger and tomatoes and only turmeric and paprika for spicing. KD states that this version smells nice when cooking.
The book contains many new recipes reflecting the changing face of the menu that we see in curry houses today.

Many of us have bought this I'm sure, as you say many of the recipes are not your average BIR curries,
I have tried a couple of the recipes so far and I find them pretty good,
BTW Kris is a woman,

Cheers,

Hello Jerry,
So far I have only tried the Parsi Chicken with Apricots(pictured). This is page 69,
and the Karahi Keema, page 96
I did change from olive oil to veg oil, I'm not keen on olive oil in curries, and I didn't use curry leaves in the Keema,

Achmal,

many thanks. i'd not got those pg's dog eared but have now. i've done bbq lamb in the past with apricot and love it so the parsi is looking real good.

the kema i had a go at experimenting with a little while ago with help from CA. i'll probably leave this one for a while.

ps i too would leave out the curry leaves.

ps really loved the pics of u're den - clearly very impressive on the curry front
