Title: What ever happend to the Happy Chris guy? Did he produce a book?
Post by: ScottyM on December 11, 2018, 12:57 PM
It has been a long while since i last visited the forums but back then all the talk was some guy called Happy Chris coming out with a book on BIR cooking.

Did it ever get made?

Also i was in Costco yesterday and saw a book called "The Curry Guy", is it any good? Does he know what he is talking about or will i find better on here?
I assume the latter.

I want to make a base gravy, mixed powder and a tandori marinade this weekend so any recommendation on which recipes to use will be greatly appretiated!

Thanks guys!

We think not.

I was very kindly given a copy by another member of this forum, and although I have not followed any of his recipes I liked his approach and felt that he does indeed have knowledge of his subject.

Chewytikka tandoori marinade is better than anything else I've tried. You could do worse than his base as well. Ive been using Misty Ricardo's ebook as a quick easy reference. Very cheap and a good resource.
