From the original World's Easiest Curry from How to be a Curry Legend to the newest Mezze feasts, find all the recipes in our back catalogue and download them to use again and again. By using them in different proportions you're able to create all kinds of subtle variations in flavour, colour, fragrance and heat - making everything from a Korma to a Vindaloo using the same 4 spices blends! On a technical issue I wish the book was produced using a spiral back as trying to hold it open on the right page is almost impossible leading to spicey finger marks in several places!

Within the pages are also recipes for all the side dishes, breads and chutneys that are needed to create spectacular Indian feasts at home.

From known and loved Balti, Rogan Josh and Dhansak to more unusual Bengali Mustard Fish and Konkani Green and with loads of sides and snacks as well, this is the perfect gift for any curry lover! Started by passionate chef James Ransome from his own home in 2005, The Spicery first sold its super-fresh spices and recipe blends on market stalls and James’ hard work soon paid off. Using these Cookbooks, the 4 Legend Blends and a few fresh ingredients, you can create all the recipes in your book.

Some say that it is an excellent concept for new curry cooks and that the tastes are on another level.We have then taken that experience and devised these sets of Legend Blends so you can make delicious, exciting and authentic food from the comfort of your home! The blends are made from 18 different individual spices that are all important in Indian cooking, but when blended like this are really convenient to use, and also make it possible to create an infinitely greater range of authentic flavours than you'd be able to achieve with just curry powder and garam masala.

I was sent this Curry Tin/Kit as a present and it's perfect - The book is great, it has delicious and straightforward recipes, the spices smell wonderful, the jars look lovely on a shelf and the kit is in a very pretty tin, ideal on every front. Not kidding you, the recipes in this book taste better than 95% of the Indian Takeaways around here and they are so simple to make. It has been a great success in our family and I've had to guard it closely from my (Not A Natural Cook) son who has made every effort to take it back to University to upgrade his student catering! This is convenient because if you follow online curry recipes, chances are you will purchase spices that you will only end up using once or twice.
