  1. Sathyamoorthy Umapathy y says January 29, 2022 at 7:00 am Hi Dan I stumbled upon you first when I wanted to get an authentic Madras Curry Powder recipe on internet.
  2. At age 80, I am a learner in Indian cooking, and your blog fascinated me the most.
  3. Your passion and drive to master various Indian dishes is just amazing.
  4. That you involved your entire family into this adventure is laudable.
  5. I am very sure, you are a reincarnation of a Indian master chef of British East India days!!!
  6. Otherwise how can you get such abiding interest to cook and serve, as also write books on Indian cooking, and Indian recipes ?
  7. You are a gifted soul, and may you and your family be blessed for propagating the great taste of Indian food across continents.
  8. Remember sir, every spice that goes into Indian cooking is in fact a medicine, passed on by word of mouth by ancient rishis, ayurvedic pundits to the village level household cooks for generations.
  9. These were further well served by our great grandmothers who passed on the knowledge to their next generation, with great care.
  10. You are doing the same service to humanity at large to promote good health, and healthy eating habits by promoting Indian foods, using Indian spices.
  11. Wishing you and your family every success in all your ventures.
  12. When you serve health promoting, as also tasty foods you reach a divine status.
  13. You are the need of the hour in these days of KFC and McDonalds.
  14. Even the Thai food you are so interested about is full of fresh herbs used in our South Indian cooking traditions..
  15. They use more fresh green herbs, and very less of dried ones.
  16. Thats the secret of the freshness of the Thai foods.
  17. Having lived in Thailand a number of years and studied their food habits, I can confidently say that Thai food is yet another health promoting medicinal food for the welfare of all who eat it.
  18. Indian influence in traditional Thai cooking is enormous.
  19. You are an Honoured Ambassador for Indian spices, and Indian foods.
  20. With all my respects to you dear sir .

  25. Dan Reply Mark Astbury says April 09, 2022 at 11:44 am Hi Dan, I have just made my first base curry sauce...Amazing recipe! my next step is to make a Chicken Tikka Rogan Josh.
  26. I have read the recipe for the chicken tikka part from the awesome "The curry Guy" and noticed something very strange.....The inclusion of 3 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese!?!?
  27. I have not seen this in any other recipe and it is not in your one on this feed.
  28. Is it a mistake or can you elaborate on the origins of this quite European ingredient?
  29. Cool books of course.
  30. Many thanks, Mark.
  31. Reply Dan Toombs says April 12, 2022 at 3:07 pm Thanks for your e mail.
  32. The addition of parmesan cheese is definitely not a mistake.
  33. It is a trick used in a lot of Indian restaurants to give chicken tikka a bit of a bite.
  34. It is a bit of fusion with European food that works really well.
  35. Thanks again Dan Reply Dan Toombs says April 12, 2022 at 3:07 pm Thanks for your e mail.

  41. ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING.
  42. Thank you, thank you thank you.
  43. Worth every bit of prep, and now I have Base Sauce, BIR Chicken and homemade spice mixes ready for my next curry adventure.
  44. Trying to decide which book to order.
  45. Can't wait to get stuck into more of your recipes.
  46. Reply Dan Toombs says May 08, 2022 at 10:35 am Thank you so much for your e mail.
  47. I am really glad you enjoyed my chicken madras so much.
  48. If you haven't already I would start with the Curry Guy Bible as that has a very good mixture of all my recipes.
  49. Thanks again.
