The Curry Club
Re: The Curry Club
I like Massaman Curry, and I prefer pork. But I would say my overall favorite is Panang.

Madras curry is said to originate from the south of India, and gets its name from the city of Madras (now Chennai).

Re: The Curry Club
Korma has its roots in the Mughlai cuisine of the Indian subcontinent. A characteristic Mughal dish, it can be traced back to the 16th century and to the Mughal incursions into the region. Kormas were often prepared in the Mughal court kitchens, such as the famous white korma, perhaps garnished with vark, said to have been served to Shah Jahan and his guests at the inauguration of the Taj Mahal.
Classically, a korma is defined as a dish where meat or vegetables are braised with yogurt or stock. The technique covers many different styles of korma. The flavour of a korma is based on a mixture of spices, including ground coriander and cumin, combined with yogurt kept below curdling temperature and incorporated slowly and carefully with the meat juices. Traditionally, this would have been carried out in a pot set over a very low fire, with charcoal on the lid to provide all-round heat. A korma can be mildly spiced or fiery and may use lamb, goat meat, chicken, beef or game; some kormas combine meat and vegetables such as spinach and turnip. The term Shahi (English: Royal), used for some kormas indicates its status as a prestige dish, rather than an everyday meal, and its association with the court.

I like Korma but they're always too sweet here.
Re: The Curry Club
Talking of mild and hot curries, you may be safe to go on a simple guide. Korma - mild. Madras - medium. Vindaloo - hot.
But again, this is not always the case, there's many variations, from the restaurants and what country you may be ordering your dish.
In the UK the above is true to what to expect. In India the heat of the curries may vary. I have had the dishes in the past from their origin.
korma can catch you unaware if you were expecting a mild dish when it turns out to be very fiery. Madras can be either way, dependent on the content of spice and use of coconut cream, the same can be said of Vindaloo. I remember being in Madras and never having a curry that was too hot, I found the dish to be very flavoursome. Has for the Vindaloo, in Goa I had a traditional dish of pork, it was very fatty and had the heat of an inferno.
But again, I have had the three dishes in different countries and they all vary in terms of spice and heat.
