Hi Gooner,

My advice on choosing a base is to choose one that's versitile, one that you can cook a very mild dish such as CTM or Korma, right up to a Vindaloo or Phall.

As a starting point, I would use Cory Ander's (forum moderator) base.  Its very easy to make, and has that BIR smell.  Click on the link and it will take you straight there.  http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=3772.0 (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=3772.0)

Good luck, and welcome to cr0

Yes, it will do any final dish that you wish.  Thats what a proper base should do for you.  You may come across some bases that are specifically designed for a particular final dish, which is fine but you are limited to what you can do with it.
