Vinda looo's Base Sauce
« on: January 16, 2007, 05:05 PM »
200 ml veg oil
1 1/2 pint water
4 - 5 onions
1 carrot
1 green chilli
1/4 green pepper
1/4 red pepper
1/2 stick celery
2 garlic cloves
3 radishes
1 tbl tomato puree
1 tbl garlic puree
1 tsp ginger puree
1/2 tin of plum tomatoes

SPICES

1 tsp coriander
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garam masalla
1 tsp salt

mix all together ready for the pot


METHOD

Put all oil in pan and fry tom, garlic and ginger purees for 30 secs
add onions and pint water then boil
add carrot, green pepper, radish, celery, garlic, chilli
add rest of water if necessary.
Continue to boil then add tin tomatoes and spices
Simmer for 1 hour.
Allow to cool, take oil of top then blend
put back in pan add the oil which has been taken off
boil for 5 mins then simmer for 20
rest over night then re heat to use or freeze for a later date.

This is an easy to do base which does not require huge amounts.
I have had my best results yet using this base.

Looks very similar to my trusty base, no matter how many I try I always go back to it  8)

All the bases I have tried on here have always produced a good curry but the simple base is the way to go for me, until something comes along that really does improve on it I will always use it.

Still to try Andys and CP's UCB yet though!

Hang fire on the UCB, I am trying to get a bit of space in the schedule to redo it.  House is full of painters & plumbers at the moment.  The Battlestar is rather large so got the Jawas in to do the job ::)

It was my first attempt after joining the site yesterday to make a 'proper' curry.
I started off with Vinda Looo's curry base, and along with Darthphall's 100% madras clone and it worked a treat.
Really easy to follow and hope it turned out OK, looked and tasted good (should of taken a photo really)
Anyway many thanks for the post that helped me on my way.

Cheers.     Pat
