The Curry Secret - Kris Dhillon - By: S. J. Parker, 01 Oct 2008 
I bought this wonderful book some time ago as a friend recommended it.
It is a fabulous gem of a book & if you follow the recipes to the letter you will never be disappointed. I found the dishes to be very close to that of Indian restaurants. One tip I would pass on is to buy the garum masala mix from a proper indian food shop as the type sold in Tesco & the like are definitely not the same & ruin the taste of the curry.
I have since told alll of my family & they have alll bought the book & alll think it a revelation.
Can't wait for 'The New Curry Secret' book to come out in Feb 2009!
Good starting point ... - By: Mr. Glenn Jones, 25 Sep 2008 
A unique cook book & a good starting point in reproducing that Indian take-away flavour. If you love the 'British Indian Restaurant' (BIR) style (as opposed to authentic), better recipes for both the curry base & individual 'BIR' style curries are available for free from the Curry Recipes Online forum at cr0.co.uk

The Curry Secret: How to Cook Real Indian Restaurant Meals at Home
This book is awful, unless you want to cook using a microwave & add food colourings. Not what I was hoping for.
the one and only - By: alineko, 18 Sep 2008 buy this & make a LARGE batch of the basic curry sauce in one go - it stinks!!! but it turns into delicious meals, after stage 2 ;-)
Fabulous!!
No going back! - By: Jr Lorrimer, 08 Jul 2008 Once you start using this book you'll probably never cook a curry any other way. In fact, since I discovered the Curry Secret I haven't set foot in an Indian restaurant.. & I live in Bradford!
Whilst this book probably isn't for the purists of curry cuisine it does bring the taste of the takeaway in to the kitchen with very little effort.
Once you've made up a batch of the base sauce it takes no time to rustle up any number of classic Anglo/Indian currys. The chicken bhuna masala is outrageously tasty. It's probably not good for my waist, but the missus isn't complaining when I serve up food of this quality.
