Ok so made the new glasgow base, everything to spec, required 1 litre extra water though, I must say tasted exactly like most bases I have tried
Then I made a simple madras
1 tablespoon veg oil
one teaspoon gg paste
One teaspoon chilli powder
Half teaspoon methi leaves
Heated oil, everything in,stirred and scraped for 30 secs then ladle of base in, cooked high heat until like a paste then in with 2 ladles of base and precooked chicken, simmered for 8 min, same as glasgow bir wow

This sounds very promising, but one important question : how far back do your BIR memories go ? I am perfectly willing to accept that the results are near-identical to a Glasgae BIR Madras as served today, but how do you think it compares with (say) a Glasgae BIR Madras of the 1970s ?

Glasgow bir is no different to any other bir phil. Bengali/Punjabi/Pakistani in bir terms is near identical give or take a few ingredients. The Glasgow Asian community is majorty Pakistani.
The old style Glasgow methods would be similar to old style anywhere else. The size of the place makes it significant

I'm clearly among the big fans of the Glasgow recipes from BigBoaby.
I cooked his korma and his madras recipes with the Glasgow base sauce and the Glasgow precooked chicken.
Result: absolutely brilliant!!! A MUST TRY

1. Hi gazman, if you don't mind could you post the exact new recipe for the 3.5kilo base if you have it written down, just in case I have missed anything from the video when I go to try it.
2. At what stage did you realise the base needed extra water and add it?
3. Last one :-) Did you use the Glasgow precooked chicken for the madarse?
Thanks in advance Gazman
