hi guys from the look of the colour 3 looks like ground coriander seeds and 7 looks like ground methi dried leaves. haven't checked this site out yet but will do tomorrow when i have more time! i suspect the methi you mentioned is fresh coriander just guessing.

hi jerry you should have gone for the 8.8kw burner option then you could have tried cooking the curry on simmer at 2.5kw and blasted the hot wok  in to the sky with the massive 8.8kw on full power! and for the price you could also buy 2 of them for the same price of the hot wok kit! and still had the price of my black steel BIR frying pan to buy 1 ;D

hi guys
haven't seen the video yet, but regarding the flame. even with my 2.2kw camping stove i have had a 5ft flame after i had heated the steel pan to 100 degrees when i dry my rice and heat the balti serving bowls for a couple of hours. i added the oil to pan sizled the garlic then added the tomato passata and the flame almost hit the ceiling scared the crap out of me :-[ have only managed this a couple of times but without the spices and chilli powder.

hi robinb
check out http://www.gasproducts.co.uk/ and check out their lpg catering boiling rings. they chuck out 8.8kw of energy and they are twice as cheap and that is delivered to your door they cost around 30 quid, they do sell a smaller 1 at 3.8 kw but that is not much cheaper than the "big daddy"!
