Well I made a balti from Terry's base, what can I say, I am more than happy, my wife tasted it and said its the best I have ever done.

I have always been happy with my previous efforts but I feel now as if I have been to curry heaven, for me this base recipe is the real deal.

Nice photos ExtraHotChilli,

I've also tried Ifindforu's curry base and found that it produces great curries! 

Keep up the cooking and photos! 

Cheers Les

What recipe did you use for the balti, was it terry's?

Hi Mark J, yes it was Terry's and I am getting the best results ever; give it a try you won't be disappointed.

Try this link Mark J, not Indian, Thai, every meal is cooked within 2 to 3 minutes absolutely great results; nice for a change. I did post the link in the Thai section, maybe users ain't reading that section enough.

Excellent, I love Thai food!

EHC and Les

Your feedback sounds encouraging. I made Terry's base but without his highly recommended Rajah Gold Madras curry powder. Did you both use Rajah Gold Madras, please?

Has anyone else formed an independent opinion on whether the Gold stuff smells and/or tastes much different to, say, Rajah Mild Madras, which I used?

Regards
George

Hi George,

I used Rajah "medium" curry powder when I made Terry's curry base ( I couldn't find any Rajah "gold madras" curry powder). 

The other things that I did differently to Terry's original recipe (cos I can't help myself!  ) are summarised here.......https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,923.msg8313.html#msg8313

I was very happy with the end result and I've subsequently made some very good curries from it.  I highly recommend it.
