Have you felt uncomfortable or disillusioned about cooking Indian Food and that's why you're too afraid to give it a go. Having worked in my fathers Indian grocery for many years, I often found new customers coming in looking for recipes and ingredients to cook up a curry and as soon as I started talking about you need a bit of this spice and you need a bit of that spice, you should see the horror on some of those faces.
Ready made pastes and spice mixes are one way to help you start your Indian cooking experience and build up your confidence. Specialist south Asian grocers and now some of the multiple supermarkets have an array of these products helping you create that perfect first curry.
Brands like:
Pataks Bottled ready made pastes, like Tandoori and Balti Curry Paste
Shan Boxed sachets of ready mixed spices like Chicken Jalfrezi and Vegetable Curry Mix
With written instructions your own your way and once you have mastered the cooking process a few times and tried a few different products, then its time to start experimenting with spices.
