  1. Hi uncle. I really interested in Indian cooking and always try your recipe. I've watched all the tamil cooking videos from India as well as Malaysi. But when I ate at banana leaf restaurant or even my Indian neighbour's house, their taste are likely the same which I love so much. The smell still there even if I've washed my hands for 2 or 3 times. The flavour was great. But when I try to cook and follows exactly the instructions, the taste is still not similar to them. Is it because of secret homemade recipe of garam masala or any tips from you, sir?
    Kindly appreciate your suggestion.

    1. hi,Are you a Malay or Chinese ?? if you want your currys to be very fragrant then you must dry roast your spices before you made it into powder.and also when you tumis make sure the the oil is hot and whole spices must really fry a bit before you add in the rest of the ingredients, the onions must be fried till light brown. the indians believes that the food taste better and smell better depends on their "air tangan"
