Hi,

To get a decent BIR madras you are going to have to make up a base sauce of some description, try one of these fairly simple base's:

Try this for the madras:

Hot and Sour,

That sounds along the lines of a Patia. Can you be a bit more specific and give us some idea how you made this and what adjustments you made.

Regards

Ray

it sounds a little odd i know, to make it sour in the base i put a 1 orange peel and tea spoon of tamarind, for hot and hand full of fresh chili.

this one https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=309.0

did try there other base here but thought it had too much ground spices, they tend to repeat on me for ages.

a Chinese lady gave the tip for souring food, she uses dried orange peel, she dose a cracking hot and sour soup.

A simple base is what I always make now, glad you had good results.  I went for a "sit in"  last night and it wasn't a patch on my own, i actually felt good that it wasn't up to scratch  8)
