[Unclebuck]

Unclebuck,

Thanks for the prompt reply, I am now heading to the kitchen!
I have just noticed in your first post for this pathia that you quite clearly mark what is the Pathia mix! I will read all future recipes several times before panicing.

Thanks

mmm unsure about that bodmass... ive never looked for it supermarkets (except Asian ones)

[bodmass]

Oh well.

There are some Indian & Chinese shops around hear, guess I'll have to try them.  If I find Tamarind in other than concentrated paste I'll be back for help again  ;D

Either way, I'll give you a report on a complete noobs attempt later  :-[

Does this look like the right stuff?  Not sure if it's concentrated enough (or how to tell)

Seasoned Pioneers Tamarind paste:

Oh and menu calls for 1 tbsp of onion & 0.5 tbsp of capsicum, is this correct?  I'm ued to "1 small onion" for ie, but 1tbsp of onion?

[bodmass]

Ok - so you may not be able to view that paste.  It says on the site

"Use up to 4tsp for 4 servings, over 20+ servings per (35g) pouch"

does that sound triple concentrated or should I use 3 times as much do you think?

Cheers

On the Tesco website is a "Fudco Wet Tamarind 400g" for 59p.

Anyone know anything about wet tamarind? as opposed to concentrated paste?
