There is truly no other curry book like this one. The recipes are not the traditional cuisine practised by Indians at home but the distinctive and well-loved variety served in Indian restaurants worldwide. Since its first publication nearly twenty years ago "The Curry Secret" has been a bestseller. It has grown, by word of mouth and reader recommendation, into a cult classic - it has even spawned internet forums where readers rave about the sauce. Following requests from those readers, Kris Dhillon has now updated the book to include a wider choice of dishes and brand new recipes for even more mouthwatering curries as well as all the established favourites. From Chicken Tikka Masala to Onion Bhajee, Aloo Gobi to Lamb Biryani, everyone's favourite is here. Praise from readers: 'Truly an excellent book and one that any Indian restaurant fan who enjoys cooking should have'; 'The Holy Grail of curry cook books'; and, 'This book is so good it's unbelievable'.

Bring back to a simmer and simmer gently for a couple of minutes. Stir in the remaining garam.

Saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, or cover the pan with a sheet of aluminium foil before replacing the lid. 4. Cook rice on a very low heat. 5. Always finish off in a preheated oven gas mark 3 (325°F or 170°C), for about 20 minutes. 6. When stirring rice, always do so gently, using a fork to avoid breaking the grains. Indian restaurants use basmati rice, which, although more expensive than other varieties, has the right nutty aroma to complement our curries, in addition to being.

Turn off the heat and place some sliced onion onto the dish. Immediately put the cooked starter on top of the onion and pour 1 tablespoonful of melted vegetable ghee onto the side of the dish. The heat from the dish rapidly heats the fat which, in contact with the onion, starts the sizzling. Now squirt some.
