I've just taken my lamb out of the slow cooker having tried a peice and it is absolutely perfectly cooked .. pleased so far !!    :)

An observation only at this stage .. the base I cooked the lamb in tastes divine but does seem to have
1. Lost quite a lot of the 'curry' flavour it had previous to slow cooking ,
2. The base consistency has changed from 'runny wallpaper paste' to a 'milky' consistency which makes me wonder if I should reduce it down a little to restore it's original thickness.

I'm cooking 'Curry King's' lamb bhuna tonight so an answer to the reduction would be nice PDQ please   ;) :)

Well done nodrog .. they look smack on to me, I'm on my 20th ish batch of CA's base and I love it !

If you're new to curry cooking I would advise you follow a couple of CA's recipes too for the first few times .. 1. It will give you confidence and 2.You'll have a first rate curry to impress friends and family with. I've gained a lot of experience cooking all sorts of recipes from this great forum but I always return to CA's !!

The most important thing is to enjoy it !!    :)

Welcome to cr0 Sam !!

You've come to the right place for authentic BIR. I watched your videos and thought you were very enthusiastic about your cooking which is great ... personally I would only eat curry if I were to be allowed !!

As usual the dish looks and I bet tastes fantastic .. you are a 'curry king' CA !!

What's wrong with that piece or coriander left on the first plate ... you couldn't have been too full to force that down surely ... well done Eddie ... great pic again !!   :)

Sorry for 'bumping this but it took me ages to find this and I'm sure many others would benefit from a reliable method of pre cooking lamb .. mine's out of the freezer to be slow cooked tomorrow ready for curry king's lamb bhuna tomorrow night ... I'll let you all know my thoughts in due course although I'll be surprised if it turns out anything other than delicious having read the reviews !!    :)

Blimey tongey .. have to agree with Phil .. that looks as good as you'd get in any BIR and better than in a lot ..... the day I can make a plate up as nice looking as that I'll have reached my goal .. thanks for the pic !!!    :)
