I feel for you guys, I have a brilliant indian rest in Glasgow called The Punjabi @ charing cross, always top notch

Hi tastyspice, welcome to the forum, a lot of the bases have regional variations, may I ask where you are from and what type of curries you are trying to reproduce?

there was no hint of fenugreek which is a glaring omission from my point of view, also the seeds from tomatoes can be very bitter also - don't think its anything to do with cooking technique

Made this to spec, unimpressed, will stick to the Glasgow base and recipes

I had that problem quite a lot, I use Akash basmati and don't even wash it as its great quality rice and never have that problem now

Hi Lads, I've been using this video for inspiration and cooking techniques for the last two years now. The simplicity of the recipe
is absolute genius, and the flavours - to me - hit the spot. I would recommend ANY beginner to watch this video, just for the
cooking techniques alone - the singing of the spices, leaving the sauce to roast etc. As Chewy says, this is from WAY back, so
maybe the Madras has evolved a bit since then, and it's not to every ones liking, but to my understanding, lemon IS an ingredient
of Madras, and its up to your own taste what strength and brand of Chilli powder you use - so what is your take on a Madras
Secret Santa and Gazman?


my take on a madras is that it should be hot in taste and flavoursome, you should get the flavour first then directly afterwards feel the burn, methi Is a key ingredient where I am from in Glasgow, just tasted wrong when I cooked it to spec, as I said its probably a regional thing

Why did you think it wasn't up to much gazman? For me the lemon, worcester and kashmiri ruined it.


Yeah all those 3, the base also didn't give me results , obviously a regional thing but will be sticking to the 3.5KG Glasgow base from now on as I get great results with it
