Hi there all
When at college back in the 80's and in order to earn a few bob, I worked in an Indian Restaurant kitchen in the evenings for 6 months as a veg prep. I learnt a lot of their "secrets" just by watching and would mutter my observations into a little cassette dictaphone. I then used to make up my notes when I got home after my shift. As you can well imagine I became very popular among friends when it came to dinner parties because my curries tasted like the restaurant's and not like those out of a cookbook!
