[Unclefrank]

Not really because most of the meat has been removed so it's mainly just bones.

Added a star aniseed to the base but didn't result in anything good, just slightly clouded the base, maybe toned it down a bit. Much more effective adding the aniseed in the cooking stage.

Forgot to add, with a new base I did some garlic ginger paste instead of garlic cloves and ginger whole and nothing changed or enhanced. I didn't expect so but read Bruce Chapmans thread I think, stating better results with paste.

Welcome Currynoob.  A fine choice there mate.  I think your cooking will now move to a new level.  Let us know how it goes.

I did warn you, didn't I.  Congratulations.  Now you'll just become more and more fussy as times goes on and restaurant curry won't be as good as it used to be  ;D ;D

First proper attempt at a chicken madras tonight.

Followed your 3hr base to the letter Chewy and also a combo of your madras sauce/dinner recipes.. the net result.. Mrs Bluebalti said "If it was a takeaway it would be a 7/10" ... I felt I overcooked the chicken a bit, possibly a bit harsh on myself but all told, for a first go at a curry from scratch I am made up.

So ... just to re-iterate what others have said...Cheers for the vids and recipes mate, most appreciated by us both!

"If it was a takeaway it would be a 7/10" ...

Some takeaways wouldn't even score that  : Well done BB. Onwards and upwards. And of course thanks to the base provider too. I love the vids
