Curry Base Chat / Re: Base sauce taste
« on: September 17, 2009, 01:12 PM »
Well, I had a go at a dansak (dhansak?) based on dazkimber's recipie. Didn't end up as a particularly good dinner but at least it was edible. For me anyway. The wife didn't like it at all.

At a guess I'd say next time I'd miss the pineapple juice and use only half the mango chutney as it was way too sweet for my taste overall. Certainly needs more in the "sour" department.

The base sauce, the taste of which I thought was not particularly encouraging, kinda disappeared into the general concoction with no ill effects. I have a fair amount of the base left so I'll have another go and see if I can improve.

Hey

I'm not suggesting the recipie itself is flawed - my comment was directed at the end result of my attempt at the base. Although never having tried cooking a curry from the ground up I suspect this batch is not worth continuing with, hence my query as to what a base is supposed to taste like.

@ George - I assumed it was a simple enough question and didn't think anyone would read any more into it than that. In fact most people appear not to have done.

Ok thanks - that's comforting anyway. The next stage (either a Dopiaza or a Dhansak) will follow later this week. I'll advise as and when :)

Hey

Just a query - made a batch of base following Darth's recipie and it's crap. Tastes like a really bad pea and ham soup without the ham. Not impressed. What did I do wrong? What is it supposed to taste like?
