If I could buy Jalpur GM easily then I would.The thing is I can't.Terry kindly posted me some for free but I have found it impossible to find anywhere;I got the same error message as George from their website.I thought it would be interesting to see how a pre-made GM pack freshly roasted and ground would compare.

Here's another negative comment from me - what a useless website (masti.co.uk). I didn't even get as far as registering. It came up with some really weird error message.

Update - to my amazement I received this morning an email from masti with a facility to activate my account. So it did work, after all! I think they still need to sort out the way their website works but, also in their favour, they use a normal UK phone number, starting 01, rather than some premium rate number starting with 0844, 0845, 0870, 0871 or similar.


Here's part of their message. Maybe they are good people, after all!

I wasn't looking for mixed powder. I was looking for your recommended brand of Garam Masala.

Yes, you do offend some of us; do you use the same language in the playground to the other children ?

I have to agree with George. To reproduce an existing commercial brand is futile. Spend a couple of years doing it by all means, but what's the point - just buy it! (or have many hours of fun trying... depends what stage of life you are at  :D. Have fun with it I say)

If every BIR chef in this country has  spent many years (minutes ordering Jalpur online!) concocting a similar GM, then sending it back to Jalpur,(then ordering back from Jalpur!)  then the secrets out..........HOOOOO  Rayyyyy.

If the GM on it's own, or Eastern star chinese curry powder  ::) is not the big SECRET!  (Quelle surprise!),  then, lets stop arguing all the time,  like my Children did all over Christmas!!!!! (or your XBOX is going in the bin !  >:(  ),

Monkey see, monkey do! (It's the way MALE humans work).....(If you are a woman just talk rubbish for years, to get something sorted!!!!!!!!.....................................OH HANG ON............IS THIS A GIRLY FORUM)

Watch it being made, make 1 yourself..... spread the word.( All from scratch!!) .......Hijack a Chef if ya can.........it's the only way.

It might be the end of the world this year, but for goodness sake....lets just make one good BIR curry at home before we go!!!!!!!


Cheers

Is there any need for this repulsive language ?
 My grandchildren love Asian food. I introduced them to this great forum now they have been banned by there mother, shame on you

I'm sorry to say there are a handful of words in CurryCrazy's post which I would like to edit out but, seeing as my plea to be given permission to carry out such quite rare, minor editing, fell on deaf ears I consider it would be improper for me to act.
