it's a difficult one to answer as it depends on how thk u like the finished curry and how much base u need for each recipe (what else is in it ie pepper). i use around 375ml of base to produce 200ml finished portion (1 person) - for this i use 1 tsp of spice mix and 1 tsp of curry powder.

i've not made darth's madras so you need to study his recipe (they are usually written for cooking 1 portion).

SnS's madras is a good source of info http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,2603.0.html
