is it just stirred in and served up? 

No the remaining CTM is cooked for a further 2-3 Min's once the chilli powder is added and I must say I cannot detect any rawness / chilli powder it it simply evaporates into the sauce.

I hope this helps in your quest for less washing up  ;D

Do curry houses only make individual portions or do they make 3-4 curries in the same pan at the same time, anyone know?

I've been meaning to ask the very same question on here for a while now (but I keep forgetting).

Anyone here seen a BIR chef cooking 2 of the same dish by simply doubling the amounts in one pan?

Yes They do make 2 dishes in 1 pan for example= If me and the Mrs have CTM I like mine Madras Hot where as she likes hers as it comes (medium sweet)

So the chef cooks both in 1 pan once it's cooked he pours the medium CTM into a carton (counting the appropriate lumps of chicken) then returns the pan to the stove and proceeds adding chilli powder to mine.

add the spices when the sauce is reduced, lower the heat and add the precooked meat, coriander.

I have watched Indian chefs on many occasions and they Always add the dry spices to fry for a few Min's in oil before adding the gravy !

Just thought I'd clarify a few things.
