What's in this base. Onion, tomato, fresh coriander - is that yellow pepper or mango or??? Holy crap, crap tell me it's not potato! Don't let SnS know

As usual, link went down again at 11, just as chef was making a giant pile of about 30 popodums (two at once in a big khahiri of oil), and interestingly enough as soon as cool things started getting added to the base. This place can't be closed, he's just cooked loads of popodums... What's going on?

I was watching in the few minutes before shut-down also. I'm surprised they would cook popadoms in advance, like for tomorrow evening. I'd expect the popadoms to go soft, but is advance preparation a possibility? The web site says they close at 11pm so what else can they be doing?

He also added large quantities of various powders to the new base sauce, including possibly half a cup of the white powder top right on the high level rack, whatever that is. Salt?

From what I've watched I do believe that is salt, maybe they were making food for themselves? the base is very interesting was hoping someone could have recorded some base making, well we'll never know what's in it for sure but it's interesting.

Chowie,

my stream is poor - too much buffering (and i watch stream football ok so strange) so i'm relying on running commentary which is brill - many thanks to all.

what was the file extension of the 1st download.

[haldi]

he is definately doing stuff we aint.

I'm dying to know what you mean

[JerryM]

i'm not convinced this is going to fully deliver our expectations unless we can pin down what pots what.

it's real good viewing though. i'm using UB's video which are brill in the post https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=3013.0

observations so far:

1.I can't make out when the tom puree is added - is it behind the chef. A lot of the dishes appear to change to the redder colour late on (except for CTM which is straight away)
2.Cleaning of pan done with fresh oil then scraped onto cooker. No water used.
3.No swirling of the pan - all spoon action. Leave the spoon in the pan and let it boil away with the occasional long stir. How their cooker stays clean is a miracle - mine would be covered in splatters
4.All 3 burners seem on the same high heat - I thought initially the centre and right were lower

It;s a .mov file for quicktime as I'm on a mac. I agree about the pans and heat, whilst watching I just get the impression if I was cooking like that my pans would end in a sticky mess and the kitchen would be splattered. I think tom puree is on his left and is one of the "dollops" that goes in at the start.
