Been using a combination of The Curry Compendium book, base gravy and mix powder for 6 months now and saved a fortune on takeaways. The receipes in the book are awesome and the ingredients from East at home are so easy to use and store.
Always arrive on time and we’ll packaged/ protected. This order was actually a Christmas present for friends to convert them too.

A very good base gravy. It’s neutral so you can add spices to your personal taste or recipe. Each packet is enough for 2 people which is ideal if you don’t have room for storage. It has a reasonable shelf life but can also be frozen.
