There is supposed to be an indian supermarket or spice shop here on the Gold Coast maybe Surfers somewhere but I cant find anything!
Any help, all i can find is asian supermarkets which are good but i need some proper indian ingredients.
Cheers Claire.xx

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!! you may have saved me from a fate worse than death having to resort to an ozzie curry!!!
Make my own but cant get all the ingredients here!

sammyg

oooh, i was just wondering the same! i was going to head off to Southport tomorrow but i'll go to west burleigh road instead, much nearer!

thanks helpful fish

sammyg

i know where you are coming from, we hve been buying small sachets of spices from woolies and that's not enough for 1 paste!!

When are you making your curry? i'll sniff up to smell as i'm very near Robina

Hi Sammyg,
I read on here that they were bad so i did an Indian curry cookery course before i came out here! Have had a few curry nights for desperate expat friends who havent had a decent ruby in almost 4 years!! and have made a rod for my own back now!!!
Should meet up as only in Varsity Lakes and drink in the Robina Tavern some weekends and will have curry night if yiu fancy it?
You will smell us as i start cooking on Thursday for Saturday night!!!

May even do a little recipe book one day! bit long winded but worth it! whats ya favourite ruby??
I know what you mean though even in the weakest of momments nothing will make me order another dodgy curry here!

gazclaire

bump up to you morning lot!!

asprilla

Nice one claire !!

Making my stomach rumble thinking about it...

squeezzii

well I know the purists amongst you may say its not a 'proper' curry as its not designed to rmove the top layer of skin from your mouth but my fav is a Lamb Pasanda with a peshwari naan (insert dribbling smiley)
I have made my own on a number of occasions but OH complains he can smell the spices for a week after-he doesn't like indian food at all so cant understand my desperation

gazclaire

Whats wrong with man???? ha ha yes my house stinks for days too! but worth it just close the doors and remove all washing or we all smell like a curry house!! I've made a passanda and it was nice didnt think i would enjoy it as i love the hot ones!

squeezzii

yeah he really doesnt like anything remotely spicy- HP brown sauce is a no no for him-has recently been trying that bottled stuff -korma - sharwoods or pataks and he's ok with that so I just have to keep at it

There is an Indian spice shop called Anand Sagar on Station St Nerang which sells all types of spices etc. It is couples with the restaurant next door.
