JB it is a breath of fresh air to see that tomato is not used in the base and lemon is. As I said previously, this is more along the lines of what I have been told from my favourite restaurant.

The finished base looks quite thick, do you add more water or use as is? how does this base compare to other base recipes that you have tried?

I have to go to work now part two to follow later I promise!!!!

hey jb - fantastic posts and well worth waiting for look forward to reading the rest - quick question - how much coriander are we looking at using in your 9 litre pot?

[PaulP]

I wonder whether that base sauce recipe is complete or will part 2 have any extra ingredients?

We'll have to wait until Jb gets back from work!

I agree Paul, it's like looking out the window for the Postie who you know is delivering something you have been waiting all week for.

wait for it axe i'm sure that tomato paste will make an appearance in part2, guessing that garlic and ginger puree will too oh and the rest of the spices and probably some more water, lol
