I used the Bassar mix as an experiment you will all see that the 99.9% Vindalloo is initially made without it & was only used as an alternative curry Powder.
The Madras is also an experiment , i`ve made it with Curry Powder also.
Both dishes work well with either Curry Powder &/or Bassar mix so follow the recipes people with just Curry Powder if you are worried about using it.
DARTH..........
