Hey vinda looo, that really does look good.

It's that bright orange colour I can never seem to match, mine always come out much darker. Can you post the recipe please or direct me to it if you've posted it already?

Nice one VA looks absolutely spot on just like the one I had at my local BIR the other day; I can smell it from here.

ok Yellow fingers. I think the colour comes from the type of chilli powder I used, it was from the weigh warehouse in nice and spice packets. I seem to get my best results using this chilli.
The recipe I used is as follows;

4 tbls veg oil
1 tsp tomato puree
1 tsp garlic puree
1 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp spice mix
1/2 tsp of salt
about 3 cups curry base sauce.

I didnt make the rice I had some already in the freezer, I just used that. {shahis}
