First EVER curry cooked from scratch!
« on: July 14, 2008, 04:39 PM »
As a total novice cook, I stumbled upon this site googling curry recipes. What a great site. It gave me the confidence to cook my own curry for the first time. It is a chicken madras. It turned out amazing and I can't wait to try other recipes.

Many thanks to SnS for the recipe and Bobby Bhuna for his useful tips in the forum posts.

photo prompted a thought that might interest for future.

i too love my fresh coriander. i used to add it as a garnish, then just before the end of cooking and now after all the base has gone in ie for the simmer period - it works well.
