I used the Taz base and method. The recipe I use is adapted to my own taste from what I have tried in the past. UB's was my usual one as his recipe was always spot on.
As you said Booby the consistency for me was a huge improvement from my previous efforts and made all the difference.

As for the rice it was my first attempt at veg rice and tasted better than I thought.
To be honest I don't even like sweetcorn much  : Just had some frozen mixed veg left in the freezer so I just used that.

One of my best Patias so far.

Does anyone have a good recipe for a Fajita spice mix?
Cheers

Toon army!!!

Looks like mess. Looks like a treatt to me!!! :

Yes the Jewel is a very good one but I have only been twice.
This place has won restaurant of the year a couple of times in the local paper.

CA do you have a recipe for a standard basic medium curry?

Well said Matt333 and PaulP I couldn't agree more!!!
I was always under the impression BIR's and TA's would always keep their bases simple due to cost and time and add what spices needed when making individual curries.

I have made this base twice now once with whole seed and the other with ground spices. I have not noticed any difference to be honest. I will be using ground spices in the future as it's easier and less time spent on blending.

Has anyone tried golden syrup? This is used in a couple of traditional Chasni recipes and apparently is used a lot in Bangladeshi cooking. My favourite BIR is run and owned by Bangladeshi's and the make the best Pathia I have had. I will be trying syrup in my next Pathia.
