Yep LC thats how I feel about the base I've been using, but as I have just run out it was time to make a new batch. Just make a half batch and if you don't like it , no real loss.
I must say this is looking, tasting, smelling very promising indeed. Just the blend then garlic tarka and re-cook to do, then leave it to sit while I pop out for a while, and give it a proper taste later
