Quote from: Curry King on April 25, 2005, 03:12 PMI dont think browning the garlic and ginger makes that much of a difference either
Yep im fairly sure over cooking isn't neccessary, after not doing it for a while I dont think browning it just right makes a noticeable improvement to the finished taste.? I usualy fry it on its own over a medium heat for about a minute before adding the tom puree.

Can anyone tell me if Pat's 'Balti Curry Cookbook' is just a reprint of 'Balti Bible' ?

I must confess that I have stopped measuring when I make a BIR curry now however if I ever post a recipe then my measurements are always as follows:
TSP - 5ml, this is a level teaspoon unless stated
TBSP - 15ml, again level unless stated.
I dont use it but I believe a desert spoon is 10ML and a rounded desert spoon is probably a level TBSP
Blondie, I dont think CK was laughing up his sleave, just passing on an observation, chill
cheers

I would say Petes gravy as above, but Bruce Edwards from curry house cookery is not bad either (havnt tried too many others to be honest)
My Dhansak is the closest I have got so far and to me its perfect and has the taste https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=229.0, secret is make it early and leave it!

Cool! its a good recipe if your low on curry gravy as it only uses half the amount. I think you are right the lemon juice is more accurate but I must admit I like to see lemon wedges in my curries ;D

Its not quite right and he has adapated some things for home cooking (no pre cooked mince in the keema for example) but he is replying quite quickly with many recipes not in Kris book

Superb, very interesting thread. I note he marinades chicken tikka for 1-4 days.
Just ready through the lot, he obviously knows what he is on about, some of the recipes I think are a bit odd but that is probably just down to regional variation.
His base only has turmeric and paprika for spices, I like my bases a bit spicier? ;D And you are right, its very kris dhillon
