Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Bad start
Well, the first and most basic recipe in the book (for the curry sauce) contains an error. It basically makes onion, garlic and ginger soup. Nice.

The recipes in this book may resemble those you'd find in a curry house in a small English town in 1989. If you live anywhere with a broader ethnic mix you'll find it not reproducing your curry house experiences.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - best curry book
this is the best curry book Ive got the ingredients all can be bought in the supermarket. the curry's are easy to make and taste excellent. this book is better than the most expensive books out. the dansak i cooked was like the one i get from the takeaway i defiantly recommend you buy this book and i paid £2.50 for it bargin



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A little gem of a recipe book
I wouldn't say this was the perfect recipe book, if you are looking for authentic indian cookery then maybe it's not for you, but if you are fed up of paying a fortune for a takeaway that has too much colouring and not enough meat this is fantastic. The curry base is a great standby as it can be frozen however it's such a popular meal in our house that when I do make it the base is quickly used. The recipe for pilau rice, if followed, is foolproof. I made a dinner party for 14 using this book and it was talked about for months afterwards. If you like indian food in restaurants and takeaways but are feeling the pinch this is a must. As a negative any recipe book that has a weak spine loses marks for me. My copy is covered in cellotape.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I have the secret
This is a great book. I have had it for the past two years now, and love the amazing results.

I make massive batchs of curry sauce and freeze them off into portions. so i can make pratically any curry in the book in no time at all.

I also add things to the currys to personalise them, for instance adding a bit off creamed cocnut to the chicken tikka masala. U cant taste the coconut as such, but is adds another dimension.

The one thing I would say about the book is the chicken Tikka recipe is not quite 'right'. If you add just 1/2 a teaspoon of 'Schwartz' garlic granuales it makes a massive difference, and massively transforms the taste. I hope this tip stops people from being disappointed.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Curry Secret - Kris Dhillon
I bought this wonderful book some time ago as a friend recommended it.
It is a fabulous gem of a book and if you follow the recipes to the letter you will never be disappointed. I found the dishes to be very close to that of Indian restaurants. One tip I would pass on is to buy the garum masala mix from a proper indian food shop as the type sold in Tesco and the like are definitely not the same and ruin the taste of the curry.

I have since told all of my family and they have all bought the book and all think it a revelation.

Can't wait for 'The New Curry Secret' book to come out in Feb 2009!
