This base is excellent. I used my last frozen portion this week, with chicken tikka which went down very well with the missis again. Not the heat that I prefer, but very, very good curry. I will be making a fresh batch this weekend, using my electric pressure cooker rather than the boil for an hour method. On its own, it makes a very good, not hot curry full of flavor. Used as a base, with added spices, chillies etc, it makes a fantastic dish for me. A strong recommend.
I will also be making the balti paste our good friend Livo posted a link to somewhere on this thread. Managed to find a packet of cardamom seeds so don’t need to husk a load of the pods and very excited to try that. Yes, very excited. Curry does that.
