Topic: Glasgow curry base sauce

[curryhell]

Whatever the verdict, at least CA's latest report has brought this thread back on topic.  Maybe now we can attempt to keep it that way : At least from the pic it looks a good curry and i am sure perfectly edible.  Obviously, it won't taste like they used 30 or 40 years ago, but hey ho  :

Hi CA,


That looks very good, but please don't keep us on tender hooks, what did you think of it?

You also seemed to have reclaimed quite a bit of oil too.

Good report cory, I must say my curry was not so oily, Each to there own i suppose. The taste as i say is exactly the same as our bengali takeaway, Not sure where the punjabi taste come into it. but there you are, good report,

Sorry guys, I was busy editing my previous post to add some comments (I wanted to post the photos first in case I lost my post!).  So my comments are now added to my previous post.

....Sad news, I'm afraid.  My wife (who has just eaten the chicken curry) has just informed me that she doesn't want to eat "that" again and for me to bin the rest of the curry base

Sorry to hear that cory, shame all that sauce is going down the plug hole, Well in my opinion the glasgow curry puts all the other curries ive tried on here to shame, I really dont know what you guys are really looking for in taste, Im lost. No offence intended of coarse.
Im saying no more on the subject!

So my comments are now added to my previous post.

A fair and honest assessment CA,it's a shame it didn't work out as good for you.I'm wondering how you managed to get so much surplus oil,could it have been from the pre-cooked chicken method? I must admit I dont't lke very oily curries myself. I had very little oil from mine as you can see...

Here's my madras, hardly any oil. It was superb, Cory's looked over cooked. To much high heat can cause spices to burn to much, it can leave a bland taste.

That's exactly why this curry is so offputting to me, the oil remains in the sauce.

If you cook the curry as BB1 instructed there's no way to avoid overcooking the curry. Clearly you didn't follow instructions (as I won't on my next attempt in hope of producing a better outcome).

To much high heat can cause spices to burn to much, it can leave a bland taste.

Nonsense.
