Hi, everyone.  I've been following your excellent forum as a 'guest' for the past few weeks, ever since I saw the link on the In2curry site.  I started to feel a bit guilty about lurking, so thought I'd better join up!

Fantastic work being done on here, with real guts and determination from those people researching the secrets of the restaurant taste.

I need to say a special thanks to Pete, who was kind enough to email me a couple of his recipes a few weeks ago when I contacted him  after stumbling across the In2curry site.  Thanks again, Pete!

I've been struggling with trying to achieve the restaurant taste for about five years, and managed to produce results ranging from 'Quite Nice' to 'Toxic Waste'.  Best results so far have been with tweaking the Kris Dhillon recipes, and of course trying some of the recipes on this site.

I'm not sure how much I'll be able to contribute, because my internet access is limited - I'm not connected at home.   But I can usually pop in each day to keep up with things.

Anyway, congatulations to everyone concerned on such a great website.  Where were you all 5 years ago, when most of my curries were being flushed down the sink in disgust?! :D

Ian S.

Hi Ian,
>> Best results so far have been with tweaking the Kris Dhillon recipes>>

As you can see, most recipes put forward here are exactly that.
After all the tweaking thats been done by everyone here, we are still very close to Kris Dillonss recipes.
As far as I'm concerned she really did reveal the 'Curry Secret' After that it just takes lots of experience.
