 I made a madras and jalfrezi(thomashenry, any 1 got jalfrezi recipe) using natco base last night. I wasnt too impressed with madras(even though my wife and stepson absol loved it) jalfrezi was ok, def try it again, but had few disasters making it!!!!!!!!!
  Any 1 else tried it. You have to heat your pan untill really hot and smokin and then quickly fry ingredients, i did this but as soon as added garlic puree it burn't instantly, burning all the pan, spitting oil all over me! Tried it again but had to use fresh chopped garlic at a lower heat, but still it browned too much, but the result curry definately had a taste i'm looking for, even if it did have a burnt taste to it.
Has any 1 else made this curry, maybe my pan wasn't heavy enough, only used a cheap saucepan, prob been better in my wok.
In my natco base i didnt use correct amount of garlic/ginger(have no scales) just guessed, and i think that was missing taste in the madras and also didnt have any onion paste left, so couldn't add that at end, first time i made base and madras it tasted wonderful and pretty easy to make , shall def make another batch this week, and am going to make darth's 100% base to compare also, shall post results later on in week! ;D

Curry Base Chat / Natco base

 Hi all, made the natco base and madras last night, all though i found that it could do with more taste my wife absol loved it ;D
i made a few ammendments to the base, i added a green pepper, fresh coriander and fresh green chilli which improved from first time i made it
only trouble was i had a batch of the onion 'soapy' paste in the freezer, but when i came to use it last night i was shocked to see my wife had thrown it away!!!!!!!!!!!
On my first attempt at making the curry i added this onion paste to the curry and found that it did improve it, so it would have been interesting to add this last night
Any way i am making Darth's 100% madras clone next, my wife thinks its too hot, but i love em that hot :o
Any 1 else tried or experimented with Natco base?

Haven't been on for quite a while, bloody computer keeps freezing!
Think need new 1
Anyway my vote has to go to Darth's BIR 100% clone
I have tried the NATCO base and it turned out really well
my wife thought it was the best 1 i've made!
With a little work i think it could be greatly improved
