Which base(s) do you use now, BB? I still like this one for madras/vindaloo but I've been using Razor's base (last 4 I've made were his) which works out better across all curries for me....

I don't have them much anymore as the wife don't like em so go when my family go there as we all enjoy it. I have tried in many TA  to ask questions and i get no were and a few times gave up on even trying to make BIR curry but something always draws me back. and cheers found it on my photobucket so thought id stick it up lol

Looks to me more like you're stickying it up    durty burdy!

Be interested to know about the two bases too, it's been mentioned before on the site and some wondered if one could be a tomato base and the other non-tomato be good if we could get at least one definitive answer at least

ah well...whoever the condom belonged to, I hope they caught summat nasty hehe pot smokers of the world unite eh? 17.7 is the imperial measurement for a tablespoon however as most level tablespoons = 15, could we say that a rounded tblsp could well be 17.7?? LOL I know we can't, but in an ideal world and all that...far too many pedants pmsl

I'd not want to wear me hat after it's been in your ring, luv....did I mention I wear a dutch cap? )

What kind of measuring spoons do you mean, Bez? the ones like those things you get in an SMA tin? never used them though I suppose you could use rounded ones of those too? I have about 15 spoons on a keyring that I spent alot on years ago....trust a bleedin' Manc to cloud the issue! pmsl ;D

BTW...you said you thought I looked familiar....'ere that wasn't you at the Hacienda, curled into a ball, ecstacy rictus spread across your face with a soup dragons hoodie and a king monkey haircut worrit? if so, I ummmm think I've still got yer wallet....though it's empty now...<shrugs> dunno where the money went, must have evaporated over the years....<whistles>....though the flourescent "penis colada" flavoured condom is still very much intact though no doubt a bit out of date....unless I got that from Pete Waterman..

Just to throw my hat into the ring....a tsp = 5ml, a dessertspoon = 2 tsp and a tablespoon = 3 tsp.

When used in recipes, 1 tsp/dsp/Tbsp of dry ingredients usually means rounded as recipes should specify heaped or level if such are needed.

Personally, I don't think there is any need to add colouring to a bhaji. They are never around long enough to study.

Exactly! ;D Though personally the only thing I use food colourings for is cake decorating. Chriswg's wife would have a time of it round our way as they don't use the colourings in the curries/rice anymore (only the crap ones still do. Ergo for me, bright red = crap curry) :\

I've used golden syrup in other dishes in place of honey but never in an Indian...I actually prefer it for chinese sticky ribs over honey as it seems to give a better depth of sweetness and a far better stickiness

I'm a pathia lover though so I might give it a go though I prefer to use mango chutney for sweetening a bit and using minimal sugaring to counter the tamarind sourness.

Cheers Axe ;D Done most of them before though never tried the bunny burgers -can't get the bratz to eat bugs bunny yet but they are quite fond of Daffy duck especially with a bit of plum sauce

Well the grass is cut, me pool's cleaned, my bushes have been trimmed to almost Brazilian perfection Has anyone got some cracking barbie recipes to share? I don't care if it's salads, pickles, sauces, marinades or sweet stuff! I'm after some new recipes to try out while the sun's got its hat on lol ;D

pmsl that must be a side-effect of the spinach then 'cos there's been no use for corks in our house this week lol

I take it you'll not be giving the sprout bhajis a try out then, BB? ;D

Domi, if it'll get you to pop a cork up my offending orifice, I'll get the oil heated! Hahaha! ;D

PMSL ;D You get the oil and I'll get me calfing gloves out
