I know this is a very old thread, but I have a question about this base so I hope someone can clarify it for me.

I have just made this base and I'm not really sure how on earth I'm supposed to use it as it is not like a base I usually make. I've followed the original recipe and I've ended up what can only be described as a pot of very bland onion soup with a hint of tomato. I had expected a bit more flavour or a slightly thicker sauce, is this normal?

Do I add this to any normal currys I make to bulk them out with more liquid base or am I missing something?
