Real Curry Recipe's - RCR review
Anyone new to recreating bir@home, who has visited / registered on rcr,(me included) will have found doors locked at every turn with the promise of all kinds of secret stuff for a fee. The info that you can view from a simple registration, amounts to a handful of posts from a handful of members(who I assume have paid a subscription at some point?), still asking the same questions as cr0 members here do daily. So whats behind the curtain on rcr? Draw your own conclusions.I'd stick my neck out & say that there is nothing behind the curtain that can't be found on cr0. The available recipe's also offer nothing that can't be found on cr0, in terms of base & mix powder. This is a fatal flaw for rcr, which has never been addressed by the site owner. The audience for eating bir curry & learning how to cook it, are poles apart & when your nearest rival (cr0) allows it to be put out there for free, it's the end of the road. Shame because the rcr members have put a huge amount of effort in there.
They're not alone...
Here's a quote from curryhouse.co.uk faqs, which made me click the X button in the corner
"Your balti / korma / whatever doesn't taste like the one in my local restaurant. How come? "
"Whilst I think the free restaurant-style recipes here in the public area are good, the revised versions in the Premium Area are much closer to the ones you'll find in the majority of standard Bangladeshi-run curry houses."
;D
You see the pattern
