I would love to give this base a go, but without knowing the specific quantities (onions, peppers and so on) I'm a bit hessitant!

The quantity that he ends up with in the pan at the end seems very little unless this is like glue and he dilutes it?

Anybody have any suggestions to the quantities or has anyone asked Dipuraja?

Thanks

Ray :)

Ray,

I made the base and his Madras last night (substituting chicken) and it was pretty good, I'd be happy to pay for it. For the base I used 1kg Onions, 1 Green Pepper with 1 liter of water. I'll post some pics when I've got a bit more time.

Hi CM,

Thanks for that mate.  I usually use about a kilo of onions and 1 pepper, so it's what i'm used to.

If you go to diparajas youtube site you'll see he has updated the curry gravy recipe with measurements as of yesterday.

Guys,

I'm making the base right now, and observing Dips advice on making sure the onions are cooked, I've give them about an hour.  WARNING:  If you do give them longer, make sure you keep an eye on it near the end of the hour, my onions have just caught on the bottom of the pan :(.  Hopefully, I have rescued it in time?

It really does reduce down quite a lot, and water will definately be needed at the end.

I'll repost, after I've made the curries.
