from base to finished dish

[Secret Santa]

jamie how did it go from being red in the 'half way there' pic to light yellow in the 'finished base' pic? 

It's a while since I made this one but I seem to remember the finished base being very much redder.

Hi SS

My base always comes out this colour changes at the blending stage i think it when the air gets into its the same as blending tomatoes they go a lighter sort of colour than what they are at the start thats what i think it is anyway

Hi Jamie,

From my original reply to you this still actually looks a good dish. In no way was I critising anything just offering some help which I found along the way by intensive cooking myself.

I stopped posting on here a while ago, because everything given in good faith got turned around for a free for all, slagging each other off.....

Everyone knows that each region has its own ways, similary if you think about it that happens with all the regions in India and probably the rest of the world too....

It still looks a very good dish, but in my opinion I would not use Tandoori masala in a madras... but carry on the good work I am sure you are producing great curries
