Have to be honest, it didn't turn out as good as when I do single/double portions.

People said it was good, but IMO it wasn't.

It was a long old day as I had to make a fresh batch of garabi as well as making naan bread.

Anyway onwards and upwards!!

I ended up doing 3 double portions and put them all in a pot.
I dont think that I gave each portion enough time to cook properly.

Yes I suspected as much mate. You just can't get a decent result on a domestic hob if you don't cook each curry individually (for the savoury ones at any rate). Live and learn eh.   :)

Cooking single portions is best approach, cook all curries taste and if happy add to large pot!
I was able to cook and produce 20 perfect tasting madras with this process, just warmed till hot in oven b4 service.
Thanks

So you made 20 portions, then put them in the big pot, and then heated it through and spooned them out when needed?
