Edited the 1st post, hope i makes more sense.

Not really. I hope you have somebody that can write English to edit this supposed e-book, otherwise you are in big trouble. Might even be worth buying just for the laugh!!

I cannot understand why you keep posting rubbish like this. You are 'fishing' again. If you have something to say about the pre-cooking of chicken then just say it so that other members of the forum may benefit from your implied 'knowledge'.

Good Idea Whandsy
I think you should, refine it a bit more and people should say what type of BIR or TA
their dish comes from i.e. Bengali or Pakistani/Punjabi, South Indan etc

Had some success recently with proper Mutton ( leg in this case ). having boned it all out I pre cooked in all the usual stuff for 3 hours. I think this was a mistake as it was probably too tender if there is such a thing and a good third fell apart too much when prepared in the final dish. VERY tasty though.

Sorry Malc - looks dreadful to me but if it tastes ok .........................

Best Regards

Mick

Can anyone help me with this one please.

My local BIR puts some finely chopped stalks in the finished curry,they taste the same
as coriander but on closer inspection the stalk is ridged like celery.I can't find any
fresh coriander that looks like it and wasn't sure if it's actually another fresh herb they
are using or is just a different type of coriander.

Probably best just to ask them,     but if it tastes like coriander then it most likely is.

At least Spicey..... has had the decency to share his version and does not merely use this forum solely for his own selfish ends. 

Did you seed the chillies?

So the question for the purists is, Is this BIR?   

No gravy, No powdered spices, but cooked by a BIR chef in a British Indian Restaurant.  ;D

Many BI restaurants will do a plain fried chicken and chips. Same question? 

Not quite Indian though. 

Turn the question around. Is this traditional indian cuisine? If not then it must be something created for the British market and therefore would qualify as BIR curry?
