I've never strayed far from Lamb or Beef Madras/Vindaloo/Phall (prefer lamb where available - some BIRs won't do lamb but will do beef i thought the cow was the sacred animal, shows my ignorance)At home I'm still trying to emulate the local BIRs madras as a starting point (thanks to input from various books as c2g, undercover curry, kd, pat chapman i think i'm almost there with the consistency and overall taste, but a significant liquourice/coriander aftertaste still eludes - already using fresh coriander, tried dried coriander leaf, fennel powder and seeds, and tamarind paste, none quite get "that" taste - ground star anise and/or jarred pataks mango and chilli pickles are next on the to-try list) but almost exclusively using beef because lamb is dearer (cue the joke about venison...) :
