No worries Paul.  I wanted to introduce the variables one by one.  I want to try the same test again but using Ifindforu's spice mix vs Abdul's and then do a base and spice mix comparison.  All interesting stuff.  And it provides lunch tomorrow for some lucky guinea pigs ;D

For the last month or so, I've been following  with great interest ,'Ifindforu's spice mix'.
I wouldn't know where to begin -looking for the Jalpur garam masala let alone the Eastern Star Curry Powder.
So i'm leaving this one in the hands of the experts.
I really am looking forward to your results,curryhell.
An excellent post,sir.

Great Post CH, I'm looking forward to the results. I should have the results of the full IFFU test tonight or tomorrow. Last night the 4.5 litre solid block of stage 1 base was defrosting. I just need to do the tomatoes, garlic, ginger and spice thing tonight (baghar) and get it all blended and cooked for a while.

Cheers,

Paul

Good effort CH,
It will be interesting to see how this compares when used with ifindforu's base as well, part of the fun of all this currymaking is the experimenting.

I made ifindforu's base last week and it was a good base, still want to experiment with julians c2g though.

Looking forward to your workmate's analysis :)

Unless you want a 10kg tin of the stuff the easiest source for this is to pm ifindforu.  He provides the curry powder or his mix powder at a very good price via e-bay.  As for the Jalpur garam masala, it can be found at asian grocers but this can be a hit and miss affair.  I was lucky.  Again, any difficulties i'm sure ifindforu would be more than willing to help you out.  I'm sure you'll eventually get round to trying it :D

Am eagerly awaiting your results too Paul.  That block must have taken a bit of thawing :o :o ;D

Well CH, base is pretty much made and tastes good so I hope I've got enough time to get around to making a quick curry later. So much to do, so many things to clean.........  ;)
