my local curry house base
« on: May 16, 2009, 09:25 PM »
Hi gang,
   I went out last night my local Indian and had my usual meal of mixed starter of salmon tikka,veg pakora,chicken tikka.Then my usual madras chicken and a gallon of beer Lol. And then not asked for the bill but could i have a little base sauce to try as i was vary curios to taste it, he got me a little i try it and to my suprise it was just like mine i would say a clone but mine has a slightly thicker texture,so it seems that i will stick with the base i have and work on spices in the meal,That's my next target when i go back there.Lol

chilli head,

well pleased on both counts - getting a taster and closeness to your base

interesting observation on the texture - got me looking back at what i though when i did same. would u believe, "Texture - quite coarse thickish consistency (will almost soft peak) yet runny".

will defo try the coarse sieve "colander" approach on the next base for comparison.

Hi Jerry,
        I will now stick to this base for a bit now and work around it.
 I think that subtle changes is what makes the deference.
