Pete, you have been busy. What size onions have you used and how many?

Looking forward to your Korma and Dopiaza.

The onions he used were very large but all i had was small ones so i doubled up on them so instead of the stated 10 i used 20 small ones. just letting it cool before i blend it then ill get the pics up i have and make a dish to see if it has been worth it all lol

not to be negative in anyway on this - anyone who don't like celery might want to reduce the qty a little. i only say this as i've only made one base before with it and it really does overpower.

Hey pete that's a new technique, you start with an almost finished base and cook it until it becomes raw veggies! Very impressive.  ;D

well base finished. Have had a taste and can say its not 3 bad different taste to many bases but by no means the worst i have tasted and the celery doesn't over power it like i thought it would but other peoples opinions of it may be diff so will be interesting to here them.
Here is a pic of my efforts

Looks good Pete.

Looking forward to your report on trying it with one of the recipes you got.

How good is the food coming out of your local?

Well they have 2 bases one for the takeaway and one for the restaurant. This is the takeaway one and its pretty good but the restaurant food is the best i have had its really good. So i have high hopes for this but i do believe allot of skill is involved in cooking don't forget allot of these Cooks have been doing it for years. But if the base doesn't come up to scratch ill take some in and see if they will cook a dish with it 4 me.
