Welcome to the forum 

I made a drunken curry using loin steaks before and it was rank, probably more to do with my state at the time than the choice of meat though.  Like you I was desperate for a curry and that was all I could find, the next day just looking at the remains was enough to make me bring it all up 

Unfortunately the answer to my question above was no. I think he literally just joined here to let us know he had taken them off that site but that we could view them on 'the other' site for 8 quid.

There's a surprise  ;D

Out of interest, ddi anyone see the onion paste video? What was in it and how did they make it? Was it the blend and boil down for an hour method, or a fry method as per Razor?

If it's like any of the other onion pastes that have been posted over the years your not missing much its just onions boiled to nothing with a few spices, waste of time.

Sorry to go off topic! Bloody hell cK where have you been?! I bet you've got some decent new recipes, eh? I reckon it's not just this chef who needs to be spilling his guts...C'mon cK...whaddaya know? ;D

Unfortunately I have no new recipes, I have just been away from the curry scene (is there even such a thing) for a while.  Still making them but just seemed to drift away from the quest, I am fairly sure I have reached my peak as far as reproducing BIR at home but you never know!

To keep on topic I have just had a decent read of this chef's site and it does sound promising, if he was slightly closer to me I would be tempted.

Could be a disgruntled chef or second chef looking for a few quid on the side, most places will not give up there secrets or allow their chef to.  On the other hand it could be  someone who's read a pat chapman book and thinks they can cash in on desperate curry lovers ;D
