I've never tried lime in a madras, I'll have to give that a go when I have a piece lying around in the fridge. Why no ginger? I also note that you  use raw chicken which I did for years, only recently using pre-cooked. I think I might go back to the raw chicken, I find the precooking adds too much flavour.

That's because a Madras doesn't have lime in it.  ::)

I have been able to chat with the chefs at our local curry house, now as we eat there with a table of 20 once a month they have become very accommodating.
Lime or lemon it's all down to your preference as there is set rule!
(Edit) lemon is the norm in bir as I stand corrected.


I use raw room temp chicken as the restaurants only precook for speed not flavour, if u think about it when u precook chicken it's practically cooking in a curry juice ;)
I'm not in a hurry when I cook and it only adds another few minuets to cooking time.

I know it has lemon in it.

My precooked chicken has cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, asian bay, mace, it's good in a lot of dishes, but I like my Madras simple.
