I could definitely eat that plate of food for lunch :P.  Interesting ordering of ingredients Chris.  Are you following the lead from the BIR that does your South Indian Garlic chicken?

I hope you were taking notes at the time and are now writing them up to share with the rest of us  ;D.  This has got loads of potential and could result in a flying start to 2013  ::) ;)

"There Ya Go Madras"  ;D well done

Big change from your first Madras vid Chris ;)
Really good when members nail this technique.

Your Tarka sequence is near enough, but you could try burning the spices a little
before you add the Garabi and my little tip of sticking another pan/lid on top
to max the heat into the sauce.

Good quick Video, thanks for sharing
cheers chewy

Thanks for the video - very interesting. I will adopt your technique of letting the base sauce reach a high temperatue on one side of the pan. It makes more sense to me than, for example, worrying about pressures at the top versus the bottom of a pan.
