Curry Base Chat / Taz's base+curry powder
February 05, 2011, 01:53 PM

Most of the bases I have made include curry powder in the base but in Taz's base and curries using Taz's base vey llittle curry powder is added. Does this make a significant difference or does the absence improve the flavour?

If you fill any pot 3/4 full what measurement do you use for the spice setc  -the amount for the 2 litre version  or do you upscale  if say you  are using  a pan somewhere between 2 litres and 18 litres as  I do not want to overspice/underspice the base.

Roughly,how many onions are used in the scaled down version of the base sauce ie the 2 litre pot version

Lets Talk Curry / Black pepper
July 08, 2010, 08:03 PM

Looking through some of my menus from takeaways some describe madras /vindaloo as having a greater use of black pepper. I have not come across any recipes on this site which add black pepper to their curries.  Anybody use it?

OK you're coming home from work  after a bad day, you have no base sauce and fancy a decent  curry and want to put your feet up without any cooking or cleaning up.

Wait 1-2 hours whilst you cook a base sauce and make a curry -dont think so.

Lets Talk Curry / Tesco Ready Meals
February 14, 2010, 03:06 PM
Tescos have a  range of  ready meal curries  under the brand Kitchen Express (produced  by The indian Kitchen , Wembley). Nearest  curries that produce  the BIR smell and nicest taste for a ready meal- far better  than supermarket own makes  and other branded makes. If fact it beat some of our local takeaways.
.
Recommend the chicken jalfezi and the  fish curry. Cost ?2.60 for main meal with veggie starters at ?1.80.

well worth digging out if you fancy a quick curry.

 No response from owner yet.

When I made my own garam masala to put in the base sauce as I did not have precise  quantites I roughly based it on this (excluding nutmeg) http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-make-garam-masala as it included the main ingredients that I was told were used. The black cardomann pods were broken and seeds only were used.
