** Phil.
100% agree with you there Phil, I always make my own stuffing,(for everything that needs stuffing, Lamb, Pork, Chicken, etc.)  Much better than the bought stuff. And now you have me thinking about pig's heart, which I haven't had for about 20 or 30 years ;D

Moving away from the xenophobia, the high street curry house has changed and not for the better IMHO.
Every restaurant and takeaway near to me now present bright orange chicken which has a peculiar aftertaste to it that both me and Mrs. T tend to dislike.
Everything really does taste the same despite each restaurant trying to outdo each other with a growing list of ever more exotically sounding dishes in their repertoire. Maybe If I could find a restaurant that had a 70's or 80's menu, dishes listed in degrees of heat and with a few well prepared dishes rather than an extended list of poorly prepared and equally poorly presented slop, I would start to eat out more. We might even get a bit more of the main ingredient such as chicken or lamb rather than the usual two or three lumps looking lost in a bucket of sauce.

Yes I know...Moany old git.

You may well be a moany old git, But I agree with you 100%, standards have gone down hill big time, There is no pride or heart in there cooking now, Just knock out some rubbish, call it curry, and sell it to the brits, Just my 2 pennies worth.

If anyone would care to see just how far he has lost the plot, I have all the screenshots of our parting conversation. All by PM's as he didn't have the balls to do it in public!

Welcome to the forum MBC, and I would just like to say that some things from the past are best forgotten, CA being one of them. ;D  Have fun. and enjoy.

I almost forgot the late Rafi Fernandez. I used to meet her regularly in her spice shop, Rafi's Spicebox, in Sudbury, Suffolk. She produced a wonderful little book for Sainsburys about the cooking of Southern India back in the day.

And you can still get hold of it.
