thanks for the post JB
Always interesting stuff

The bit where you

"Cover pan with a lid and turn heat to its lowest setting and leave to steam for 10 minutes."

is where I always have trouble
The rice tends to stick badly
I think you need a really heavy bottomed pot to do this

When they take that much care precooking the spinach, the end result must be fantastic.
They clearly go the extra mile
Wish I lived closer to try the real thing!

Thanks JB
Another great post
Are you getting time at home to try and do everything from scratch?
You know, gravy through to a curry?
#55

Garlic powder is interesting
I know curry powder has it in anyway, but that might have quite an effect
None of the places I have seen have said they used it in the mix
They use it in their garlic mayonaise

I made a potato madras and a prawn vindaloo, with this base last night
these are some of the best curries, I have made in the last 20years
Something is still not quite right, but so much is correct
I use the updated ginger garlic blend, which also has chilli and coriander in
I will keep using these recipes
To make them work you need to dry out the initial ingredients in the pan, then also cook without stirring for 6 minutes

Both of these instructions are critical
The drying out gives the garlic a chance to develop it's flavour
and the 6 minute cook changes the sauce, and caramelises it on the sides of the pan

this is terrific stuff
have you seen the pre cooked veg prepared?
I would imagine it's similar to the pre cooked chicken

I also found out that it is in fact a mixture of veg oil and melted ghee that he uses to start his curries,not just plain veg oil.
is this veg or butter ghee?
Are you going to write up a series of recipes?
I's happily buy an ebook about all this
