OK. I cooked this tonight for me and my girl. In complete shock that I cooked it myself! This was completely outstanding and was as good as a posh curry house near where we live. Thank you so much. I can't see myself using takeaways any time soon. I know this quality can't really be matched.

I used the Saffron base sauce (https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=2271.msg20262#msg20262) Thanks SnS!

Here it is in the making: ;D



Nearly finished!



I used Cory Ander's Chicken Tika / Tandoori marinade (https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=1555.0) and also used his Tandoori Masala spice mix. Cheers CO!

Marinade spice mix in the making:





Didn't have any skewers so cooked loosely in a very hot griddle pan:



And the finished dish garnished with fresh coriander:



Not bad for joining the forum this morning! I spent around 4 hrs on here today learning loads and becoming inspired and obsessed.

It was amazing how the curry all came together at the end. Really quick! Have LOADS of base sauce left so next time it'll be even quicker... Mmm what next? ;D

Once again, a million thanks from me and the missus. Glad to be part of this amazing forum.

A very happy Floyd in Brighton! 

 ;D ;D ;D Yep, even Fanny Cradock is here! Could you imagine Fanny Cradock cooking curry?

I'd rather not...

Hi folks. Having been a lover of both eating and cooking Indian curries for a few years now I haven't ever really met anyone who shared the same enthusiasm for the cooking part. Obviously they are all more than happy to eat what I cook! That's what it's all about for me though: cooking good authentic Indian food for friends and family. Anyway, I'm glad I can now share this passion with like minded people.


My first 'real' curry experiences were up in Manchester where I spent many a night around the 'Curry Mile' area thinking I could never cook like this - It's impossible! Then, Probably like a lot of you, I bought Camellia Panjabi's '50 Great Curries of India' and realised that I could. My favourite has to be the Red Parsee; it is just out of this world.

Have since moved down to Brighton where the Passanda is amazing. However, have never managed to do a good version of my own . I will create a post in the hope you can help me!

Sorry for going on a bit, great to be here!
