The Chef makes it look so simple. You would think that we are all capable of replicating this dish 100%. Have you tried this recipe CA?

No I haven't tried any of his recipes yet Mick. 

I admit I'm a little taken aback by him lobbing everything into cold oil....and adding cold base....is it really THAT simple?  Interesting though....

I really would like to see his base too...hopefully he will post it soon...

Lemon juice in a madras too...tsk tsk  ;)

Well I for one am really pleased that someone has come out of the woodwork to show us. He has good technique, is obviously a REAL chef and displays nearly everything I've seen on Video from many places and from different cook houses.

Kudos to him I say, some will never be pleased but at least it confirms a lot of things, if at least only to me.  ;D

Maybe it is that easy, someone needs to give it a go asap.

BTW I'm pretty certain that is a bottle of lemon dressing rather than lemon juice. Adding that much juice would surely overpower the curry.

I'm looking forward to him posting an onion bhaji recipe - I have requested one. I wonder if he puts potato in it?

I assume Vindamikka is you Mikka. Looks like most of his comments are from CR0 members.

I'd like to know if his garlic ginger paste is precooked. If he is adding it cold to cold oil and only simmering for 2 - 3 minutes surely it would still be raw.
