Okay guys, so after having made SNS's base this week-end today I tried to made a madras, following SNS recipe as well.

It was not a disaster, but there is a lot of room for improvement I think :)

First of all concerning the base :

I followed the instruction but I noticed something that bothered me during the cooking, at some point after having boiled the vegetables and blended them, I had some "foam" (not really sure about the word) that would rise up from the pan. I was not too sure what was in it. Any ideas what I did wrong there?

Concerning the madras :

I did not use enough prawns, but that is my fault, I'll use more next time, how much for 2 persons would you say?
My curry paste was way too liquide, I must have added too much water at start I think.

So in conclusion, it was eatable but there is a lot of room for improvement,I will try again soon and give reports ;)

EDIT: I forgot to say that I tried to make two portions at once, for my Gf and me, should I do one after the another or is that ok?

I can't find Ginger paste over in Switzerland, I tried making some with my blender but It did not end up as a paste, more like a finely cutted ginger root.

I think it comes from my blender :/

I'm doing this base at the moment, I think my color is not really the same but it looks good none the less.

I was wondering for the madras I'm going to use frozen prawns, should I precook them before cooking the madras or can I directly toss them in?

I'm not too worried about the color to be honest but thanks for the tip :)

Thanks a lot Sns for your recipe, its really clear and helps immensely for me that is a big noob :p

Today I found fenugreek and even fenugreek dried leaves in some obscure place I never though of going :)

Going to go hunt for the Rajah Madras Curry Mild, I found the hot version but I think its better the mild one ?

One more newbie question, sorry guys I hope you don't mind too much :)

I plan on doing my first try today, I'm going to try the SNS base and was wondering if when done I could directly make a curry or if I must let it it cold before?

Anyone recommand online spice shop?
No way I'm ordering from spice of india because they charge me 35? in shipping.
On the other hand natco charge 3.5?... there is a bug somewhere surely..
