With all of that in mind, once you know what you're getting, it's a lovely book, charting the history and development of curries around the world (including interesting side-notes, for example the tradition of lager with curries was started by the King of Denmark, who used to visit London once a month in the 1850's for a duck vindaloo and had a cask of Carlsberg sent over to accompany it each time) and also providing a large number of curry recipes. Add the remaining base gravy and garam masala, thicken to your preference and serve, garnished with a little more finely sliced spring onion.

Whether you're in the mood for a hot and spicy dish or something more aromatic and fragrant, there's a curry for every palate and dietary preference. Fold everything through carefully, add the water, then pop the casserole dish lid on and pop it back in the oven for a further 45 minutes or so.
