Fantastic results!

Omg, what can I say......you guys are amazing!
Last night I made an amazing chicken curry using Jb's base. I've never cooked anything like this before but it was fantastic! I have also frozen batches of base, prior to diluting (to save space more than anything) I based each curry on about 300ml of diluted base and managed to cook 8 curries so far with enough base for 12 more!
It was a lot of work in comparison to tipping a jar of Pataks into my slow cooker, but totally worth it.
I just wanted to say thank you, especially to Jb for answering my inane questions and also to Chewy for his wonderful video which I literally followed as I cooked ( my ipad got a bit splashed though)
If I can do this, then anyone can.
Can't wait to get my next batch going as my friend got me 10kg of onions for 99p! (The joys of living in Birmingham)

Well done. I can remember doing the same thing, cooking in the kitchen while trying to watch CTs vid on a computer in the lounge. It all starts here.
