Supplementary Recipes (Spice Mixes, Masalas, Pastes, Oils, Stocks, etc) / Scaling up mix recipe
« on: April 22, 2014, 09:44 AM »
Hi all,
My wife likes Mick Crawford Mix 1 from his e-book but amounts given inly make 2-3 dessertspoons. I would like to scale up and make enough to store for 4 weeks or so.
Is it just a case of multiplying the amounts or is there more to it than that ?

Curry Base Chat / Re: How much salt!!!!! ? Undercover curry?
« on: October 21, 2012, 12:01 PM »I don't use any.
Someone here will tell you that you need salt in curry and that it bring out the flavour. It doesn't it just makes it taste salty
Have to disagree there.
Salt is really necessary.
A bit like comparing fresh lager to flat lager to me......though I respect your opinion.

Tried the mix today using half measures of everything to coat 2 breasts.
Excellent. Give it a try in a roasting bag. Succulent and tasty. I am using the chopped breasts in my next Madras.
Yum Yum......start my diet next week
