pictures to come cant work out how to change bmp to gif any ideas anyone?

If you have windows XP go to start/programs/accessories/paint

drag your bmp onto the paint window

do file/save as, and there's a drop own box at the bottom that lets you select the file type (gif in your case)

Yes, you're not wrong. It's strange though because I made Darth's base quite a while ago and it definitely came out brown. Has it been altered recently as I notice there's no tomato used in the base and it's this that makes the base brown?

hello ritchie

that base looks incredibly yellow, is it just the picture or was it really that colour?

hello Mike,

well for some of us it goes a lot deeper.
i for exmaple have been around since the ukfdi started then joined in2spice where i met pete and others (who were already on ukfdi) and then migrated to cr0, etc. etc.

It's history, but you know i do feel a sort of allegiance to the old school. But RCR came along, and was birthed in its mercenary way. I have a few 'presences' there to allow for bans etc.

I don't know if you've followed the machinations all the way through as i have, but on balance it's obvious that Andy is a fraud. There may well be a indian restaurant in the background there somewhere, but i'd be prepared to bet that andy is a small part in it. The 10 year thing is bullcrap. And when Ali finally remembers the name and location of his myriad restaurants i promise i will be there like a shot. I'll taste the curries and report honestly.

The sad part is that the ever so friendly and accomodating RCR wouldn't allow this post so i'm forced to post here.

and for the latin lovers there...vidi veni vici (and i bet they say that's the wrong way around...fools)

You know, there's mothing wrong with this recipe, but...

It ain't BIR, it's traditional in style, as is most of Cyrus Todiwala's stuff.

Just found andy's "fusing" video. Heehhe what a laugh. Umm stir and press, rotate spoon. Bullcrap. This does nothing for the final taste, it isn't a technique, it's laughable.

Oh and apparently Ali can now reveal the name of the restaurant after unknown problems that prevented him from doing so before now. What, did he forget the name of his own restaurant? It's laughable, it really is.

Anyone picked up on the fact that the chief arse lickers aren't even British? Currycanuk is a well canuk, channa doll is a yank..Puhleeese as the yanks would say!

as I said before i wouldn't care idf Andy and his team of curry fanatics were aliens as long as the curries are as they profess to be, BIR style. Well i have made a few and they are good, but not BIR.

Just remember where this started folks. It started here. Andy copied the Natco base and other stuff. It's laughable it really is.

There's too much to point out, especially about Ali's recent post. But I'll tell you what Ali, guess who's gonna be first into youer restaurant once you reveal all. And i promise to behave. :)

15 Garlic Bulbs (yes 15)

Do you really mean 15 whole bulbs and not 15 cloves(segments) of garlic?

Lets Talk Curry / Re: Chopping Onion

I would never puree raw onions for anything, not just curry. I think haldi sort of confirms this by discovering that a very long cooking time is required if you do, to get rid of all that acid which is produced. It's interesting though because all of that acid is going to react with the other ingredients in a totally different way and haldi seems to imply that this actually improves the taste?
if anyone cares the acid is a natural binary weapon, two chemicals mix when the cells of the onion are cut. It's its own natural defence against cruel people with sabatier knives - well against insects actually.
