The comment about the curry book written by a bloke who had a takeaway ..... It's a woman, and she lives in Australia! More research needed! Yes your base is similar to an awful lot used by many takeaways

Hi Richard - we make other curries, but these are the only "takeaway" recipes we have. Since we left Scotland, we haven't had the opportunity to develop any more - the concept of an Indian takeaway doesn't exist here in the US (at least not that I've found).

Made the pathia without the red dye and it was excellent, i'll be trying the Dansak soon. Don't suppose you have any other takeaway curry recipes lying around do you? cheers for the ones that are here anyway.

Hi pat - I remember onion bhajees fondly, but we've never tried to make them. You've got me craving some, now...

do you have agood recipe for onion bhajees please?...

2009-07-18T05:34:24.357-07:00

do you have agood recipe for onion bhajees please? I have tried to make them but they are missing some spice -I don't know what it is though I can't seem to get the authentic taste that the takeaways do. Pat

Matt - glad the Pathia worked out well for you. I'll definitely keep my eyes peeled for the new curry book.

Hi Mike, wanted to say... your base sauce wasnt far off the sauce from that book. It worked well and the Pathia from this site was delightful. About that book (and no I dont work for them), they're about to release a new version. So seriously hold out for that, as that book was a life saver for me. Best short cuts ever.

Thanks again for the receipe as the Pathia is seriously overlooked, and yours was great. If you want me to send you some chappatis let me know as they're so much better than tortillas.

Take care, and crackin website.

Hi Matt - glad you've been enjoying the site! I hadn't previously heard of "The Curry Secret", but I did a little searching around for it and it looks like it has all sorts of good recipes! We need to make some onion bhajees now...

2009-03-18T14:10:00.000-07:00

Hi Mike, I've been looking at your great website all day... and I'm currently making your base curry sauce ready for a week of curries!?!!?

Anyhoo.. the reason for the comment is:

a. Thanks for the site.
b. have you ever got hold of The Curry Secret by Kris Dhillon? Damned good secrets book by a guy that ran a takeaway.

Just thought it maybe of interest to another curry lover, as it has seriously helped me in the past from everything from Chappatis to Raitas.

Cheers again!

I'm a Londoner living in the Eastend surrounded by Indian takeways and I have to say the base recipe you have described is very good and makes an excellent starting point for a decent home made *Ruby.
