60 gms  Salt? Wow! This is heavy on sodium How many finished curry portions does this recipe make? 6 gms/tsp = 10 tsp x 2300mg for a total (not including the margarine) of 23,000 mg of sodium.

have you read all the posts??

I think it was medium but it's all down to personal preference. If you like hot curries, using the xtra hot version will produce a slightly hotter base and vikky-verka.

SnS...did you use the Hot, Medium or Mild Rajah Madras powder?

What size of tin for tomatoes?

CA, thnx for sharing this recipe....looks great. Have u ever tried mixing some whole wheat flour with the white?

CA, here you go...pop one of these in your curry and watch the smoke blow out your ears ;D

>>The New Mexico State University Chile Pepper Institute has certified the Bhut Jolokia or 'ghost chilli' from India as the hottest ever tested......The ghost chilli tested at 1,001,304 Scoville Heat Units (SHUs)<<

Why don't u use Habanero peppers? They are very, very Hot and have a pleasant flavour that would be more pleasing,imo, than an overdose of Cayenne. I had some Mexican salsa with Habaneros in a San Diego restaurant and it was great. Also, they infuse a nice bright orange colour.

Thnx onion. My original calcs were incorrect. should be about 10 ounces not 19 of oil! That sounds better

Onion, 1/2 pint of oil ...assume this is imperial - approx 19 ounces of oil or about 473 ml? Seems like a lot of oil. what's your total finished output of sauce?. If I read recipe correct you don't water it down at all?

thnx.... I will try this soon.
