Curry Base Chat / base gravy defrosting
November 13, 2012, 07:29 PM
Hi all
I have just made chewytikka's base gravy using a 6Lt pressure cooker (chewy's 1 hour video states a 4Lt pressure cooker), i have ended up with around 8 - 9Lt's of base gravy after reducing it to the correct consistency. I usually freeze it in plastic containers of 300ml (one portion).
To save space in the freezer would it be possible to fill this container with 600ml ( two portions) which the container would take and use no extra freezer space then use 300ml when defrosted and put the other 300ml in the fridge till required. If so how long will it last in the fridge till required.

Regards

Lets Talk Curry / GREEN GARLIC
September 25, 2012, 10:28 PM
Hi All
I crushed a couple of cloves of garlic a week ago, put them in a sealed jar in the fridge, came to use them tonight and they had started to turn a greenish colour. Has this happened to anyone else.

Have they gone off. The garlic bulbs where purchased a day or two earlier.

Any thoughts on this please

Storage / Storing fresh coriander
April 21, 2012, 01:41 PM
Hi all
I have read different ways to store fresh coriander so I thought  I would share this with you.
Purchased two bunches of coriander on Monday, put one bunch in a brown paper bag placed in a dark cupboard and the other bunch in a a little cup of water, covered with a bag and put on the fridge.
Took them both out today (Saturday) the bunch in the cupboard was unusable, the bunch in the fridge looked and smelled the same as when i put them in.

Happy cooking

Hi, like darkginger i am also a member of another popular curry site, however I have only been a member for about 4 weeks, I am totally new to making curries and and really keen and eager to replicate that Indian restaurant taste. I found this site through a you tube video and cannot wait to see what it offers.
I have just purchased Julians e-book and only yesterday produced 3 litres of his C2Go base gravy, so I hope this will do.
From what I have learned in my short time is that curries taste different in different parts of the country. I am from the midlands (Wolverhampton) so if anyone can point me in the right direction I would be much appreciative.
