Ok the base is complete, I can say without doubt that the base sauce alone is electric, This is the real bir stuff, In my opinion it put's KD'S, JULIAN'S AND PAT CHAPMAN'S base gravie's to shame. This is what i discribed in another post, A finished curry! like i'de tasted before, For what goes in it the taste is amazing And yes and it has a smokey like flavour to it, It's ready to eat as it is as far as im concerned but im going to finish off with the final dish's i want to cook, And i can say its seem's they are going to be STUNNING!. All i can say is if no one likes this it's time to give up making curries and go do something else. Like growing daffodil's!
Bigboaby you do deserve your own page mate,,,,,,,ADMIN!!!!!!!

I can definatley vouch that the base is stunning, im pretty good at being a food critic, my wife is even worse! As like many we are looking for good quality, taste, texture etc, 1st one out the pan is the madras, then two chicken curries for the whimp's :o Trust me it is very very good, and i thought mine was good!
Just be aware that because of it's consistency it does require a fair bit of blending!

well done stevejet

on the blending side, i helped the onions along with a potato masher after the initial boil of 1.5-2 hours
