I sometimes wonder why people get so hung up on bases....add a little this....a little that....maybe a parsnip....boil it for an hour....three hours....oops! don't forget half a carrot..... A base is a base; and should provide texture and a background flavour. No more and no less. Lots of onions and some light spicing is the trick.As Andrew says, most of the flavour in a finished curry will come from the final spicing, and reduction, in my humble opinion.
And obviously, not forgetting the most important of all, the technique of pulling it all together. Without this, you have just another home made curry :-X

Gravy makes a difference.Some recipes I've tried (posted here and elsewhere), just taste gopping ...
