How does the sweetness compare to other bases, and which ones have you tried? I only ask because too much sweetness is not something I've encountered in my many base trials, other than when I added sugar, or creamed coconut.

Cheers,

No it's not :P

I've seen it online and kept an eye out in supermarkets and indian cash and carry etc. I'd like to try it. I'd like to look at the ingredients too.

Im veggie so wont try it. What can I do to make it hotter?

Make the sauce before you add the pre cooked chicken (just simmer it for around 5 minutes and check it's cooked). This way you can taste the sauce without consuming meat, and judge what needs to be added. If it's bland and not hot enough, I would suggest adding salt and chili powder and/or finely chopped fresh chilies.

Good luck,

BB.

is there any real alternative Madras curry powder.

TRS, Heera or East End will do.

My recent fav is the Jalfrezi. I've started to the hankering for it. I'm also into the Jaipuri Chicken. I've just been eating Madras for so long, a change is welcome!

(I don't think there is base recipe that makes less than this).
and I don't think there's one as tasty! :D

I made my latest batch a week past. This is my favourite base. It's minimalist, provides the volume and consistency, and lets your spices do the work. I made a Jalfrezi tonight using some green pepper, onion, 2 cloves finely chopped fresh garlic, 1 or tsp tomato paste, fresh chilies, 1 tsp BE spice mix, a pinch of methi and a small handful of freshly chopped coriander - standard cooking method. It's the best I've had in a while, and easily puts to shame any of my attempts with the Ashoka recipes.

I'm a TRS extra hot man myself, although any from the little bags from the Indian grocer are good. (Rajah, Heera, East End to name a few)

At the moment I'm using a giant box of Kashmiri chilli, which seems to do the trick too.
