Heres my recent base gravy I've done which is amazing and produces amazing curries.
Ingredients:
Halved Onions - Enough to fill large saucepan (6-7 Ltr Version) to the brim with 1 inch space at the top
2 Carrots - Chopped
1 Potatoe - Diced
1 Bunch of Corriander & Stalks - Chopped
1 Green Pepper - Chopped
1 Tin Plum Tomatoes
2 DSP Ginger and Garlic Paste
300ml Oil
1 TDP - Salt
2 X Chef Spoons - Mix Powder (
How to make mix powder)
1 1/2 Cup Water - NO MORE
Method:
1 - Put all the onions, pepper, carrots, tomatoes, corriander and potatoe in the large pan and add the oil and water. Evenly distribute the salt over the ingredients.
2 - Place on a simmer (lowest light possible) for 3 hours. Make sure the onions are soft as well as the carrots.
3 - After 3 hours, add the mix powder and stir. Simmer for a further 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, turn off the heat and allow the mixture to cool for 30 minutes.
4 - After 30 minutes of cooling, blend and add about double the amount of hot water to get a thin soup like consistency.
5 - Once blended and thinned to required consistency, cook for a further 15 minutes to seperate the oil.
DONE!
Thought I'd post the recipe for anyone who want's a really decent base gravy.
ENJOY!
