Hi
been trying and trying to register here - have put in all the details and tried 4 times in the last 24 hours to get an activation email - says its sending it but doesn't. Can't do anything else as it says there's already someone registered at my email address - so it's recognising me and my addy - obviously no error made in the sign-up .. but won't send me the activation code. I've looked in my junk mail folder and tried over and over to get the code emailed - nowt!

If anyone knows how I can contact someone there, I'd appreciate it - I can't find any contact details!

Cheers!

Nice one Floyd! I have also been using the base sauce from the curry secret for a few years now. It's a great little book and I suppose I never thought about there being a similar forum too!

The sauce in the book is fry then boil onions...

Your photo suggests going straight to the boil bit with some extra vegetables? It looks interesting! Can you be a bit more specific about where you got that recipe from...? I.e. which post on the curry forum?

Yes, no frying. really easy though a little time consuming.

Here's the link:

http://cr0.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic, ... l#msg20262

Topic name is:

New Base Gravy from visit to Saffron

I end up with 5 litres of base sauce following this recipe. I use 300ml per curry which gives me 16 or 17 curries. Result! :D

Don't know what the problem is Tony. From memory, I used a hotmail address. Perhaps sign up again using a different email provider address?

Hi floyd, that's exactly what I did ... I have a nickname that is sometimes refused, I've put it down to that even though no refusal was given at the time of signing up.

Fantastic site, thanks for the tip!

Hi all
Just exploring every avenue here but today, after joining the curry site yesterday, I have a huge amount of junk mail - all remarkably similar in their format and unsubscribe procedures.

Anyone else experience this? I'm sure it's not here, but I don't recall giving out my email to anyone else recently.

Thanks!

Thanks Floyd, I really didn't expect it have been the curry site, wish I could find out though!

Thanks again!

I've got the same problem. You can't even contact anyone to say you haven't had the activation email. Perhaps one of the members here could contact one of the administrators to see if they can look into it.
Anyone?
Cheers, Mark

Excellent Tony. What a day you're having!

Just finished making these Seekh kebabs:

http://cr0.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=1525.0

In fridge now and will cook later. Cooking for 4 hungry mates and the GF tonight.

On the menu:

Chicken Jalfrezi: http://cr0.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=2664.0

Prawn Madras: http://cr0.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic= ... 4#msg24504

Garlic Chili Chicken: http://cr0.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=2540.0

Have made all these before and can highly recommend them.

Tony, if you want something quick and amazing tonight, go for the madras. Made with spices, base and choice of meat only. No chopping or dicing needed.
