Goncalo has not replied  : and my invite to Goncalo stands.

So let's get that vital second opinion.  Goncalo, I am happy to contribute

I saw this group (Jon butler trio) about a year ago, an Australian band. Check this song out, the guitarist playing a song on solo guitar, tracks called ocean. It's rockin around 4 mins in to it. Awesome!! Think its played on an 11 string acoustic not 12.

We will do; a base, pre-cooked chicken, spiced Oil, mix powder and curries.

And where does that leave your book - or will these be different?

The person that that comes to my house will be shown whats in the book.

Chris is this gonna be your good self cooking / teaching, or will there be any other BIR chefs involved?

I too will support Chris' book, not least because he is a member here but also because the very act of sharing his love of curry cookery demands that support. There is however a dilemma, which is not about Chris but about the process of taking a recipe from paper to pan.

It's a bit like all those guitar mags and videos that promise to turn you into a guitar god. There's lots of competent guitarists around but as ever only the few stand out.

Guitar Video = Recipe Book
Guitar God = A bit of talent and loads of practice

No book can promise to make you a BIR chef. Like the missing 5%, it is not a holy grail.

I'd happily pay him now just for the bit about unlocking the flavours, never mind all the recipes and vids

but there is definitely something out there that we're not doing correctly as anybody walking past a decent curry house can tell you. Somebody out there (all BIR chefs no doubt)  know the answers!!

Whilst I sincerely hope that this long awaited 'enlightening' works for you Chris by actually giving what is promised, any intention I may of had of investiing the price of a pint has now been totally reversed by this video. What a load of nonsense.    very amateur attempt at generating future revenue by creating an increased suspense that some people are actually falling for.

As somebody has already mentioned, the product now needs to be very good in light of the additional hype.  if this unlocks anything 'we' don't know already then I shall be the first to apologise for doubting you but I would feel worse joining an 'after the event' band of criticism than express my doubts now. Fingers crossed that I am wrong but I have a bad feeling about this. Just a personal opinion and no offence meant but the video has not done you any favours in my eyes.

Very plausible retort that ruby, but there is definitely something out there that we're not doing correctly as anybody walking past a decent curry house can tell you. Somebody out there (all BIR chefs no doubt)  know the answers!!
Lets hope it's Chris

I can't wait for the book.I've been disappointed before,but for some reason I have a sneaking suspicion that this is going to be different,I really hope so.

As for recipes,for me the simpler the better.All I really want is to cook bog standard recipes that you get in your average take-away,nothing fancy just the stuff that we all love to eat!!

Fully agree with this, I haven't made a curry for a few weeks as my last takeaway delivered more than mine can, so I'm waiting for this ebook to be released before making another to see if it delivers me  "the taste".;D
