ye haw
ill try it tonite
what the hell is kebab paste

dont tell me we gotta try n get the recipie outta them for this too!!

OK
so i went into my local


heres what i got out of him for the tikka masala

1 spoon base
half spoon sugar
1/4 spoon ground almonds
1/4 spoon coconut powder
1/4 spoon masala base
1 glass single cream
1/4 glass tap water
red colouring

now. i then went into my other local and got the exact same thing out of him
i asked him about the masala base. he said the chef only knows the ingredients and that he makes it up and adds it to the masala

now what the hell is in it i dont know, but im guessing its all the missing spices from other recipies i have.
SO

ive taken a guess and will put it into motion tomorrow night, but heres what ive come up with


MY MASALA

2 or 3 tbsp oil
1 tsp garlic
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp tom puree
pinch chilli powder
1 heaped tsp spice mix
1 lvl tsp tandoori masala

1 ladles curry gravy
1 glass single cream
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup? coconut powder
1/2 cup ground almonds
red colouring
1/4 glass water until right texture

condensed milk? / Evaporated milk? Possible additions if it doesn't taste quite rite.
(they did say that there was none in it, but they also said they didn't know what was in the masala base. so its still a possibility?)

Spice Mix
Coriander 8 Parts
Turmeric 7 Parts
Cumin 5 Parts
Curry Powder 4 parts


can't be THAT far out surely?
ill let u know. or if u want to try it out before me let me know!

excellent my man! i will give this a bash asap! in the meantime i gotta finish up the base ive already made!
i made a balti last nite! it was fantastic. NEARLY what i was looking for. however it was missing something. possibly curry powder. i didn't put any in

can i just half ur incredients darth? im not feeding...... the WORLD!


\cheereerrrsss

hehe no nothing yeT! my mates sister however goes out with him! so i may be able to find out that way. oorrrr i know he goes shopping on a saturday haha i could follow him round

i rang them yesterday and asked if there was any coconut or almonds in the masala sauce. a lot he said.
so i may ring back and say ive some sort of alergy and need to know what goes into it. or offer him something in return for me being allowed to watch it being made! some movies maybe. or money i guess.

yikes. made it last nite

there was an overpowering flavour that i couldn't quite put my finger on. but definately not make it again with the tomato soup.
the soup almost made it tarty. it had that tomato soup tinge to it. possibly tastes like takeaway indian CTM over in england, but definately not one from trusty Northern ireland  ;D
ill maybe call into my local and ask what their base curry is made up of.. and then call back again in disguise and ask what their masala sauce is made up of also what is that ingredient you mentioned pasata?
