Now then fellow forumers,

Does anyone know how to make a home made curry with that 'authentic' straight from the takeaway taste?

I've tried many times at home but they always seem to be missing something.

I like mine volcano hot and that bit is never a problem but there is always a little something that I can't quite put my finger on that isn't quite right.

try looking on here (http://curryclub.worldbreak.com/)

Use fresh coriander.
And fresh chillies - including seeds if you like it hot.

Isn't it a bit like chip-shop chips? You know: you can never quite get complete authenticity.

Definitely get some ghee!

Also, try this site:

They have all the ingredients and recipes you need! They even do a starter pack for £10!

So does Ghee make a big difference then guys?

I've tried several times to make them with all the right bits and bobs and there always seems to be something missing.

Perhaps it's like Sam Miguel says - you just can't make chip-shop chips at home.
