Curry!
« on: November 17, 2015, 11:57 AM »
So for a long time since 2006 I think I've been a member of this site, I first found it whilst living in Bristol, now I've moved back home to sunny South Shields in the north east. I had a wonder down ocean road, chewy I'm sure you know it well. I just want to post saying thank you Chewy, it was cabbage that was always missing in my base. Also thanks to curry barking mad Mick Crawford for your e-book and everyone else who has contributed towards this site. I'm about 95% happy with my curry's now.
Still a few things to learn but basically the base I use is Chewys pressure cooker one, and the recipes are kind of my own take with all the tips and pointers on this site. Its been a canny quest like. Still love it. So curry's, Rogan,  added a touch of yogurt. Dhansak, a little less sugar and the same for Korma, I like to use single cream only a little, a touch of milk and knob of butter. This site has been amazing! Thank you.
