Hi my friend and welcome.

I'm a newbie myself but have found a wealth of recipes and tips.

Some of the more experienced BIR cooks are always around to offer advice and encouragement

I have to say, Rob, that looks delicious ...yum!!

Looks delicious.....without that green stuff on top.

Nice one though  -  Keemas are underrated in my book

I hadn't watched any of Julian's You Tube videos before I read this thread.

To be honest, it's pretty basic stuff - maybe beneficial to a complete beginner, but no more.

I won't be buying either.

For a start, I joined this site to learn from fellow curry fans and share whatever knowledge I have.

Plus, if the first e-book 'The Secret to That Takeaway Curry Taste'  had all the secrets, what can this one have to offer?

The one, and only, thing that bugs me about this site is the attempts by some people to sell shite...sorry

Thanks folks.

I used a piece off a block of creamed coconut and ground almonds. I think, if there is any lumpiness, which there certainly wasn't in the mouth, it probably came from my base, which maybe needed more blending.

Anyway, it's all part of the learning process, but I'd make it again exactly the same

Oh, you're so picky Rob...lol.

I'm so used to making tradional Indian (and always made thinner sauces) that, maybe now, I am verging on the thick side.

But the lumps are probably chicken.

As for the rice - no excuses

Cheers bud - all my own work.... with the help of you guys.

Having fun learning the BIR way, and enjoying the taste............

Saturday is usually curry day for me - went for a wee Korma today, based (mostly) on CA's below

https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,3975.0.html

It turned out lovely ....at least to me and Mrs G and Son of Mrs G.

Here is it bubbling in the pan (I like lots of sauce)

And now on Mrs G's plate (obligatory paratha included)



And a little close-up for effect



All in all, a great wee dish - thanks to CA for original post. I'll make it again for sure

Wow - didn't realise there wre prog rock fans on here....or people still playing it.

Take s me back to my youth, watching Pallas and Marillion in the Heathery Bar, Wishaw.

Nice
