Hi Steve,
BIR is British Indian Restaurant and the currys you get over here in restaurants here are nothing like real or "authentic" Indian currys.? BIR's due to speed and cost use a base sauce and create all the currys from this base where as authentic currys are each made from scratch.
Anyone else want to add?
Do you keep a stock of this base sauce?
I have seen a few recipes that require curry gravy? Can this be made from scratch, as I like to make everything from scratch. The only things I usually make and keep in advance is garam masala and ghee.
Steve
Yeah make a big batch and either keep it in the fridge or freeze it in curry sized portions and defrost as required.
Have a look under the curry gravy group theres loads of information and recipes.
