Turmeric, one of the main spices of so many curry dishes, has been scientifically proven to prevent Alzheimer's Disease and Heart Attacks.

Who loves a curry and what's your favourite?

Well that's news to me but good news as I like them. Favorite is it would be a lamb dish not too hot but not mild either so you can taste more than the heat. I do like a variety though bring it on if you are cooking.

I actually can, I'm happy to say. But dammit I didn't realise just how much spice they use until I learned.

I love Indian food and being from Leicestershire, have some of the world's finest on my doorstep.

Sadly I have to keep the really hot stuff to a minimum after a rather poorly judged bet involving a carrier bag full of chillies which resulted in 3 days in hospital and a lifelong need for Lansoprazole. I did however win a fiver!

Ouch! I have to be careful too. Cancer biopsy last year found a hernia, gastritis and 'barrett's oesophagus'.

Probably nothing to do with the tablespoon of 'thousand scorches' pure chilli essence I downed for a bet ten years ago...

Sadly its miles out of your way but if you are ever in Harrogate there is an Indian spice shop that does packets of fresh spices all ready (ok I know its lazy) but this guy is a wiz the flavors are immense and as good as I have had. Not cheap at a couple of quid but wow are they good.

Bootiful, we have a store in Liverpool town centre that does all different kinds of world foods and does the same.

They have two long aisles of all the shit that would make any cook think it was christmas. I also get the cornmeal there for my cornbread.

A mate's wife gave me a tablespoon of 'Da Bomb' a couple of weeks ago, I didn't read the label and she didn't tell me that its rated at 1,500,000 Scoville

You're not supposed to actually eat it, you simply add a few drops to a gallon of liquid. I've never felt searing pain like it, nothing helped. In the space of an hour I drank 4 pints of milk, double cream and a 500g bar of Dairy Milk and it still burned!

The carrier bag of chillies gave me gastritis and ulcerated my stomach, the actually thought I make have dissolved part of my stomach lining.

Thankfully the fact I take Lansoprazole every day saved me too much harm from the chilli essence.

The important word was 'some' as in "we have SOME of the world's finest".

Also, Leicester has the largest Indian population anywhere outside India and the food available in the city (particularly around the East Park Road, St Saviours Road area) is pretty authentic.

I heard that Indian food was only ever so spicy in order to mask the flavour of meat that had gone over or that was substandard.

I can believe it, but those mostly accused would be supermarkets and their suppliers. I've never had an Indian out of a restaurant that was too overpowering in spices to not be able to taste the dish you asked for.

The hotter varieties help you to sweat, which in turn helps you to cool down in a hot climate.

That's just something I was told by an aunt who spent time in a refugee camp in India after the war...

After all, they tend to be run by Indians from India lol I think the only difference is that the spices are going to be local, fresh and a whole lot of a better standard than the inferior imports we get in comparison.

Well you're partly forgiven then but we have many excellent restaurants Herr in Leicester. All owned and run by Indian families, catering mainly to Indian clientele. Granted, the home made stuff is far superior but the restaurant stuff is some of the finest you'll find anywhere outside India.

alot of our local indians seem to be run by bangladeshis masquerading as indians but they are still quite nice

That is right. Typically, BIR curry houses are run by Bangladeshis or Pakistanis in this country.

That's because 'Indian food' originated in the Indian sub continent. Bangladesh is in the Indian sub continent and was once part of India.

Majority of Indian restaurants in the UK are run by Bangladeshi's and Pakistani's.

The best Indian food in the UK is in Yorkshire in our opinion. Have eaten in a lot of curry houses all over the UK and the worst was in London

"Curry is better than chocolate!!!

I love cooking them too. I make batches of onion and spice paste and freeze it.

I'll have to try that, I was freezing whole batches of sauces but I suppose reheating anything with yoghurt or cream isn't going to be as quality as when it's added on the day"

I dry fry the spices, then grind, Slow fry lots of onions, garlic and ginger until really soft, chuck it all in the blender with a bit of water just to help it mush. Then thats what I freeze. Then when I want a curry just add tomatoes or coconut to make a sauce.

"Turmeric, one of the main spices of so many curry dishes, has been scientifically proven to prevent Alzheimer's Disease and Heart Attacks.

Who loves a curry and what's your favourite?

Well that's news to me but good news as I like them. Favorite is it would be a lamb dish not too hot but not mild either so you can taste more than the heat. I do like a variety though bring it on if you are cooking.

I actually can, I'm happy to say. But dammit I didn't realise just how much spice they use until I learned.

However my tikkas are volcanic hot lol

Sadly its miles out of your way but if you are ever in Harrogate there is an Indian spice shop that does packets of fresh spices all ready (ok I know its lazy) but this guy is a wiz the flavors are immense and as good as I have had. Not cheap at a couple of quid but wow are they good."
yep they are realy good

I don't pay more than a fiver for a superb balti in Bhams Balti triangle and the sweet centres are so cheap and friendly as well.Mostly Bangladeshi owned.Can't be doing with "posh" balti/curry restaurants.

"I love Indian food and being from Leicestershire, have some of the world's finest on my doorstep.

Sadly I have to keep the really hot stuff to a minimum after a rather poorly judged bet involving a carrier bag full of chillies which resulted in 3 days in hospital and a lifelong need for Lansoprazole. I did however win a fiver!"

Haha, that tale really tickled me!
