Topic: Hi everyone from baby spice - a curry novice

[baby spice]

Hi Everyone,
         I have been browsing this site as a guest for a week or so now and think its brill!!! I am only just starting out "curry cooking" at home and hopefully you will all be able to offer lots of advice to a novice like me.
To begin with, which curry base would you reccommend for a beginner i.e. not to complicated but v. tasty. Can I then use this base in any recipe using stated ammounts???

I eagerly await replies!

Hi baby spice .

There are a number of good curry bases on this site and all are worthy of a try . Follow this link - http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=422.0
The taste of the base can vary somewhat so it tends to be a matter of personal preference . I would suggest you try Darth's , Pete's' , Mark J's' , Ifindforus'  or Bruce Edward's bases to begin with . As for recipes , follow this link - http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=415.0

Enjoy

Welcome Baby Spice 

I have tried the following curry bases from this site, both of which are easy to prepare and give good results in subsequent curries:

• Darthphal's, here: http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,674.html
• Ifindforu's, here:  http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=923.0
  

I am sure that most of the the other curry base recipes on this site will also give good results.  This is an index for them here:  http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=422.0

Yes, you can use any of the curry bases, in any of the recipes, using the stated amounts.

Happy cooking!

Just had a look at Dai's first curry following recipes from this website - it looks fantastic! I'll definitely be giving this a go. Hopefully I'll end up with one that looks just as appetising.

I'll let you know how I get on.

Thanks
