Topic: waitrose curry base

[blanchy]

I spotted this yesterday for the first time - waitrose have released a curry base and a range of pastes to go with it. The onion base looks pretty simple tho, just onion/garlic/ginger/chilli, and you just fry that along with one of the pastes and add meat/chopped tomoatoes etc. Anyone tried out out?

Is this in the chilled section, blanchy?

Nope - on the shelves not too far from the usual Pataks stuff.

Yeah, I popped down there earlier and looks like nothing more than onion puree, to be honest. Might be nice as a quick curry though, as Waitrose's stuff tends to be pretty good.

Did you end up buying any?

I have BE base in my freezer - it makes an excellent quick curry  ;D
