To move on from jimbaxters frankly baffling stance here, is anyone familiar with the work if Misty Ricardo and his British Indian Restaurant recipes? I have had the book recommended but wondered if anyone here has used it


I've got a couple of books by Dan Toombs "the curry guy" all based in British Indian Restaurant dishes, he makes a base gravy and takes it from there, all the ones I tried were terrific. books are relatively cheap

One thing I did discover was the quality and freshness of spices made a hell of a difference in the finished dish, when living in Glasgow it was easy to replenish supplies but after we moved to the sticks I used old spices from the cupboard and the curry was shit

That misty boy looks like oftw

What about Misty Hyman, 200m butterfly gold medal winner at Sydney 2000 Olympics?

See above.

I have The Curry Guy books and the Misty Ricardo ones. Both are good but I like The Curry Guy books better. I cook from them two or three times a week. 

Usually buy spices online in larger quantities. That would be a waste of time if you weren't using them often though. Either that or Asian supermarkets but I haven't been in one for months though.

I'm not sure of the validity of your opinion. One one hand, you'll have never seen them use it, but on the other, you don't live there.

I'm going to attempt the scallops with oyster relish, pickled shallots, fennel, cucumber and grated apple dish from Saturday kitchen. 

Going to improvise with the relish, increase the amount of apples and scale down the quantity of fennel. 

A whole fennel? Somebody is having a laugh. That would kill this dish.

Not just fennel fronds?
