Hi haldi, if you had someone else to cook your curries using your own ingredients you'd probably enjoy them better.
I just make a base up as I go along now, as long as its cooked properly it will make decent tasting curries.
Onions not boiled properly,too long on the final cook darkens & adds an unwanted flavour to the base, then the curries for me. You know this anyway
The only reason my curries don't taste like my local's is simply the recipe. I had a curry in Amsterdam recently which tasted like what I would expect find anywhere here really. Curries we ordered at Masala in brick lane were a bit powdery & supermarket like & Tayyabs Punjabi is nothing like any of the Punjabi food common in Glasgow.
A crap flavour coming through from the base gravy in the curry gets confused with missing flavours or %'s imo
regards
