Thank you Juney! I will have to give Madras curry powder a go

I've also been surprised that cooking from scratch often actually doesn't take that much more time, once you're familiar with the process.

I bought this book recently >>[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Forgotten-Skills-Cooking-Time-Honored-Recipes/dp/1906868069/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1274311735&sr=8-1"]Darina Allen - Forgotten skills of cooking[/ame]<< and I love it! It goes into a lot of the knowledge that used to get handed down in the kitchen from generation to generation, that many are missing out on these days with all the pre-packaged stuff and takeaways.

I might not go hunting my own game or smoking haddock, but it was really interesting to read about these things anyway. Am tempted to get some chickens though...

I'm also interested in this one: >>[ame="http://www.amazon.com/More-Less-Cookbook-World-Community/dp/083619263X/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1274311989&sr=1-2"]More with Less[/ame]<< I might get it next time I decide to buy myself a present.
