How much do you use for one curry Darth?

And when do you add it?

I havent used asafoetida before, Ive got 2 types - one is from bart spices, the other is in a yellow container and comes from an asian grocer. I think I will try with the bart one as it is more concentrated.

Ill try this and fenugreek powder in a curry for one Im making tonight, how much do you guys reckon to add, Im tempted by half TSP fenugreek seed powder and 1/4 TSP asaf.?

I don't know if one gas ring would be enough.
I suppose it just takes longer.
One chef, I know, said they have to use four rings to heat their pot.
In this takeaway they dont use the main range to cook the base, they have a seperate gas one ring burner that is bigger than anything on the stove. This unit is about 2 foot square.

Darth - 30 tennis ball sized ones, medium I guess. They are not spanish but your common bulk onion in the supermarkets I suspect (I dont know for sure but I would be suprised if any BIR uses the red spanish onion in its base simply due to cost). Ive tried bases with normal onions and spanish.

I reckon the chicken stock is now a definate in the base for me, that liquid stock sounds interesting, Ill try it in my next base.

On going out for a curry with your mates you start to recite all of the secrets of the Indian restaurant trade much to their amusement/indifference!? ?;D ;D
