There's hot paprika and sweet paprika, you usually see the eperate ones in supermarkets.

Tried my local Asda Vindy.

Still no joy.

Hello Tim,

I'm fairly new to the forum.
Like your good self, I too was using recipe books, but always with that little something missing.

I'm a Madras fellow myself, & I can honestly say, thanks to this very knowledgable lot on here, I am now eating some of the best curries, & side dishes I have for years.

Had curry for my tea 4 times last week.LOL

  Just one request though.  If you already don't like this base, please don't critique the final dish if you are going to use this base, i'd be on a loser before you even got going lol, ;D

I might give your curry a go with CA's base mix Razor.

Then again, I might have another go at this base mix, & ease back on the garlic.

What ever, I would never criticise you personally sir. I appreciate all the help you give.

Well,

To be totally honest, I much prefer CA's base mix, much more to my taste.

This sauce for me personally, has too much garlic in it. Maybe for me, I should leave out some of the garlic.

Sorry, just my opinion.

Hello Razor,

I've just had a go at this base mix this morning before leaving for work.

Cooked the onions for a good 45mins.

It's now in the slow cooker, & will remain there untill around 6pm tonight.

Hopefuly I will get some pictures posted on Friday.

Would love your recipe for chicken curry please mate.

Thanks Razor,

Kinda makes things a little clearer now.

Another question if you could be so kind please.

In some recipes it's said to add "sweet Paprika"
Having looked in my local Asian supermarket, I seem only to be able to get a hold of "Paprika"

Is there a difference?

Yes they are different things, in fact many mix powdersactually contain a bit of curry powder too. CA's mix powder is nice.

Hello Vindy

Had a go at CA's Madras on Saturday.

Used his base mix, & his spice mix.

I just cannot believe the end result.
For years I have been messing with cook books, & although it's been ok.
It's always had that something missing.

Saturday, I was over the moon. I would have gladly paid for the curry I produced.

Well chuffed.

Hello CA,

Cooked these on Saturday.

They were the absolute dog's gonads.

Sorry I haven't got any pics, they just didn't last long enough.

Just as good as any I have ever bought.

Thank you for taking the time to post the recipe.

Had my butcher mince a fillet of Lamb yesterday.

Followed the recipe, &  filled a pastry cutter with the spiced mince.

I use this  to make perfect beefburger shapes.

I then rubbed them with oil, & fried them on a griddle pan.

Testers.....Myself, My son, & his friend.

Verdict...Best Kebabs we have ever had.

Once again CA. Thanks for taking the time to post the recipe.
