All the videos we watch seeing the bir chef at his best, i dont see any bir chefs doing accuracy stuff! infact in some ways its pretty crude but good. The chefs spoon ok! scooping spices!,,,,,from the spice tubs,,,,, is it a tsp or not? is it 2 tsp's? or 1/2 tsp? where do you draw the line on accuracy? again imagination. i only give recipes to some degree of accuracy, you may add a bigger heaped tsp of spices than i do, someone else may add less etc etc, If i cook a stew i buy all the same ingrediants, but i never weigh them for accuracy, but each time i cook one its the same taste.

Good of you haldi, if you do enough base for say 6 curries add at least 3/4 of a cucumber. peeled and deseeded of coarse, the links to the other cucumber gravies i must say ive never seen before, mine was just a thought to try it. it certainly adds a softer smoother feel to the texture too.
cheers.

Well ive found cucumber has changed the smell and flavour massivly. after all it is only a vegetable, ive tried, carrots, potatoes, all manor of veg but none of them have worked apart from the cucumber. there are countless asian cucmbers in asian supermarkets much bigger and may offer a different taste, which i will try soon but at the moment im not altering my recipe in any way because its almost spot on.
bobbybouchet08, your right what you say but there are many good chefs on here who have tried it all and cook to a very high standard, for one you say meats are all cooked together, well i know for one reason or another beef and chicken should not be cooked together, also oil used from the onion bhajis has been used for flavouring, well theres so much you will come across on here and mostly what youve mentioned have no doubt been covered. thoses who have got it almost to a T you will find are just fine tuning theres recipes.

Ive stopped using paprika,I found it coloured ok but to much of it left the dish grainy and dry tasting, i add a tsp of orange food colouring to my mix which leaves a nice golden looking curry dish, most birs are loaded with food colouring. just a thought!
