Does anyone actually use ghee in the cooking of their curry?If not, Do you think using it alters the taste in anyway?

300ml veg oil
3 very large onions
1 can tomatoes
1 piece celery
1 large carrot
1 bulb of garlic
1 piece of ginger - 1 1/2"
1 tspn salt
1 tbspn corriander
1 tbspn tumeric
1 tbspn cumin
1 tbspn paprika
1 tbspn chilli powder
250 - 500 ml of chicken stock
1. heat vegetable oil
2. fry onions until soft (10 - 15 mins) I tried boiling but think frying is better.
3. add garlic, ginger, carrot and celery towards the end.
4. add tomatoes and salt.
5. take off heat and puree, adding stock gradually.
6. simmer for at least an hour.
7. after one hour, add all spices into puree, and stir.
The base will darken slightly after about 1 1/2 hours. The amount of water varies but don't add too much, too quickly!
I am still learning and open to any suggestions!.

BIR Main Dishes Chat / Looking for the final stage for my madras!
October 04, 2008, 08:39 AM
Now that I think that I'm well on the way to getting my base right, what I want now is to get the final stage on my madras right!
I've tried several options and one is the use of gara massala; should I use it or not? Should I use a little sugar? etc etc.
So, in your opinions, what are the best ingredients for the final stage?
