I'm sure there are many different variations of base sauce from restaurant to restaurant, even though the final dishes all taste similar. Could you please tell us the recipe (ingredients and method) for the base sauce whcih your place used?

I have a work colleague who is on rather good terms with some guys from a local Bangladeshi restaurant.  I asked him if he could get some info on the basic curry sauce.  I was given what went into it....but not quanitites or method.  The first thing on the list was.....Coconut butter.  Iteresting to see that Ifindforu mention this above!   Also mentions Green pepper!  Interesing.

As I said, there weren't any measures or methods.....only ingredients.....I have the paper he wrote on here....and I will quote verbatim:  Coconut butter, Green peppers, Mixed spicy powder (whatever that is), lots of onions, Garlic, Ginger, Corriander, Dry Corriander, Methi Leaf, Cinnamon. 

Not a great deal of use I know, but my this guy I know will ask another one of them next week and I'll try to get more info.  Interesting to hear of the Coconut butter.  Could that be somehow implemented into the Dhillon base? 

[Curry King]

With the exception of the methi leaf and coconut thats pretty much exactly what i've been told, they are all very similar.  I did ask about creamed coconut and was told they don't use it as its too expensive, just slight variations but the main ingredients are the same.

Please clarify. Do you mean (a) coconut butter and (b) lemon salt

OR up to 4 separate ingredients, being perhaps coconut, butter, lemon and salt.

Hi Geoge
           this is the recipe, given to me, about a year ago
This has coconut block in (which I believe to be the same as coconut butter)
