Dear Dan, I made your Korma today for friends. Somehow i mixed up the large and the small batchs recipe of the base sauce and ended up with way too much Ginger Garlic paste. I stretched with water and reduced it down. The Korma was amazing! even with this mistake. Next time I do it right :) We will make your Chicken Pasanda next. Cant wait! All the best from Dortmund Germany. Bahut danyawaad! Michael

hello Dan, Ive had my red book for a week and are loving reading it. Today I took the plunge making this chicken korma and basmati rice. Well the result was inbelivable. My oldest daugter of 29 goed often to an indian resturant here in the netherlands so she is quite critical. She loved it to bits. My grand daughter of 6 loved it as well. So no thinking of the next one to make.

[@yvonnegoble354]

Fantastic! Made it today, the base sauce is wonderful and I have enough for about 2 more curries! Thanks so much. Made the korma and it was delicious ! :) Bought the book the other day and I love it.

[@maximilianduncan125]

Have been in the kitchen today making a load of base sauce and then made a korma today from your book. It's my food bible! I got it as a Christmas present a few years ago and have used it to make many meals since. Thank you for helping me to make amazing BIR curries in my own home!

[@DanToombs]

Thank you very much for that. I'm really happy you are enjoy the book and recipes. Happy cooking! :-)

[@michaelw970]

Bought one of your books . Love your recipes 👍. Thank you 😊

[@MysticSpid]

This is the best korma recipe ever! I've tried some in the past that were such a let down. But this along with your other recipes are fabulous! I found the rose water made it too sickly for me personally, that may be because I had a concentrated essense though. I'll add a bit less next time, but still tasted gorgeous!

[@globalgardener6561]

Thanks for this, Dan. I still occasionally make your version of this dish for non-chilli head visitors to my house. A pleasure and education to see you presenting...

[@oliverjamesspicer]

Lovely to see the video but of course we've been making these since your book came out!

[@graeme22177]

You remind me of the Don. Thank you for making curry great again 😂

[@israrahmed-lz3bd]

Look nice I can't have spicy what can use

[@michaelmattingley5117]

Hi mate love korma

[@daverayman8865]

Good party dish mate thank you 👍👍

[@courteaux]

Dan, can you demo the BIR chicken pasanda from your bible please? I've cooked a lot of your great curries successfully but I can't get that one right. Thanks

[@courteaux]

Actually I rescued it by using your other BIR recipes. Rapseed oil with cinnamon and green bruised cadomens, onion, ginger and garlic paste, a few green chillies, ground roasted cumin and coriander seeds, your mixed powder, paprika, turmeric. Then I gradually stirred in the padanda I made that wasn't nice on its own. Bang! Awesome result 😃

[@thehiltongirl]

Lovely

[@etherdog]

I just saw your collab with Keef Cooks. Yeah! I never realized that korma was sweet.

[@grahamcharlton861]

Another classic video Dan.

[@DanToombs]

Thanks Graham. :-)

[@PlanetKeef]

Oh yeah, can't beat a nice Korma!

[@cookingblue22]

Are those curry pans available in the USA?

[@DanToombs]

I'm not sure. I'm going home to California in February and will look for them. There are a lot of Indian shops in the area.

[@brendarigdonsbrensden.8350]

Omgosh been watching you cook curry for a long while didn’t realize you were a transplanted person like me. 👍 tell keef Brenda stopped by to say howdy and with the floriot children I have liked a decent curry but they moan first about smell than the taste because it’s too spicy 🤷‍♀️

[@DanToombs]

Thank Brenda. I had the same problem with my kids. Started making mild curries and then serving with freshly chopped chillies at the table for me. :-

[@zulu9812]

If I wanted to scale this up for 4 people, do I just double everything? Or should I be careful with some ingredients?

[@DanToombs]

There isn't anything spicy in the recipe. Just double it. That is how the recipe is in my book. For four people. :-)

[@marquez2390]

lamb bhuna my fav please

[@DanToombs]

Thanks. I'll be cooking that one really soon. :-)

[@222singstar]

Mine turned out lumpy, what did i do wrong :(

[@gutworm686]

I wish you’d keep the camera on the pan.

[@nitelite78]

Interesting there's no mixed powder or curry powder.

[@HenryWDavey]

All the spices are in the base gravy in the pan to the right. You bulk make the base gravy to use in whichever curry you are making at a later date.
