    Does anyone know if there is a place that sells REAL and decent tasting curry paste?

    We've found curry sauce from time to time at Superama, the sauce rather than the paste but it does in an emergency.

    Fortunately (for us and for you) we'll be doing a Sainsbury run next week for our impending flight home. Let me know what you want and I'll bring you a jar.

    Choose carefully! There's 25 to choose from:

    then search for curry paste

    Steve: Didnt see your response until now :(

    Ive found some in US that a friend is bringing down in about 2 weeks.

    Thanks for offering though :)

    Ps. My mouth went nuts when I checked the Sainsbury website, haha :D
