will be creating a dish today looking at trying a recipe off this site should be fun.....
looking to capture the ultimate subtle sulphur garlic background with correct depth,texture balance of the sauce taste that ive encountered on a few occasions in a life altering moment of experiencing a curry, that words simply are incapable of explaining the encounter of dining in gods own kitchen.
"DarthPetes"well, on scanning some the great content on this site and weighing things up I opted for a hybrid of Darths base and pete's ... on stove top method.. I'll call it?
DarthPetes? cheers guys
Very encouraging almost licked the blender clean..

? cooked a total of 4 1/5 to 5 hours last evening night... skimmed off some oil (reading spiced oil etc ) some is still lying on top of the onion base but getting tricky to skimm off....

I'll be going for vindaloo stylie on tonights finalization (eyeing darths vinda) with that rice n spice in microwave method... which will be a first for me even considering microwave with any contact in curry cooking...?
Has anyone experimented or have any comments on the use of powdered garlic in final stages? I am trying to perfect as I said before that subtle background of garlic with the vindaloo flavour/heat layered on top...? I dont mind wandering off tradition or backbone of recipes to tailor recipes to taste? hence my fiddling with garlic.....?
fresh garlic maybe fried at start of final curry stage in spiced oil and powdered to sauce later? sure ive read that the powdered garlic is responsible for that throaty after curry sensation we sometimes get.... but wary of balancing catching fresh garlic too far and buggering the entire dish...
so would appreciate any feedback from garlic experts here..
cheers
