A forum member, signed up in February 2008, waits for nearly 10 years before posting their very first post? Promising to post the ULTIMATE base sauce recipe tomorrow.     Phew. What is that about?

Well (or should that be 'So' to fit in with the retards who start every sentence with it nowadays!), if it's been 10 years in the making "ULTIMATE" may very well be the appropriate adjective. I'm looking forward to it.   ;D

So, I'm really glad that I'm not the only one who gets seriously annoyed with this.

So I'm now pondering the difference between "An Even Better Curry Base" and the ULTIMATE curry base. Ultimate, in being the absolute best achievable, is a very strong claim.
The recent base I made followed a very basic recipe that was apparently restaurant used in the early BIR days. Nothing but Onions, G & G, Tomato, salt, turmeric and paprika, water and very little oil.  Using this, and an equally basic onion paste, produced finished dishes that I was quite happy to have cooked.  It's use also produced a very nice pre-cooked chicken.  It all worked exactly as it should.

Does the inclusion of trace amount vegetables, coconut and extra spices, or the variation of oil ratio, or changing the cooking process from a 1 hour boil and blend to a half-day, 3 pot marathon really produce a better sauce or just a different one?

A Very Good Question, Livo.

Well it did take 10 years for a first post, so I think the recipe posting might take another 10 years. By that time I wonder whether man might have already visited the moon?

There's lots of recipes on this site for perfectly adequate bases that will make excellent curries to rival your favourite takeaway. If there's ever such a thing as the ultimate base then I will convert to being a flat-earther.
