Axe,

What is your want, with Mustard Oil?

I only use for my chicken/lamb tikka marinade or, my mint sauce.  I don't cook with it

Axe,

hahahaha, Desi Gold, the one in your link mate, lol.

I have used others aswell, and I think one of them was Pride, ?

Guys,

I'm making the base right now, and observing Dips advice on making sure the onions are cooked, I've give them about an hour.  WARNING:  If you do give them longer, make sure you keep an eye on it near the end of the hour, my onions have just caught on the bottom of the pan .  Hopefully, I have rescued it in time?

It really does reduce down quite a lot, and water will definately be needed at the end.

I'll repost, after I've made the curries.

Axe,

The best way I can describe the colour is, it should be whiskey colour.

Ray

Axe,

No, I have a gas hob but I've gone back to cooking in a small wok as per my TK Maxx thread and I think the sides are too high for it to flambe.  Don't get me wrong, I could get it to flame if I really heat the oil up, i just don't want little black nuggets of garlic in me curry :-X

Ray

Hi Axe,

Either way, I'm not sure my hob would get it that hot that it would flame anyway, in saying that, he does blend his garlic and ginger with oil and water so, you never know?

Ray

CA,

I interpret this as hot curry = hot oil but flames not important?

Ray

Hy guys,

I mentioned last week on another thread, that I'd emailed Andy Munro (Brummie Balti Guru) and asked him if he would care to join the forum?  Below was his response:

Really hope he does join, and if any of you guys are interested in Balti, then hopefully this is the guy to answer our questions

Ray

Hi MGF,

Welcome to the forum.  I think you have found the right place to get you somewhere near what you're looking for.

Ray

Cheers CA,
