PS THE RED SAUCE WILL GIVE YOUR DISH A SLIGHTLY ORANGE COLOUR....THE SAUCE IS RED BUT WHEN COOKED IT'S ORANGE OR THERE ABOUTS...JUST GIVES IT A LOVELY COLOUR..THE COLOUR CAN CHANGE DEPENDING WHAT INGREDIENTS YOU HAVE IN THE PAN... VEG MASSALAS ETC

BB1,
Many thanks indeedy! I'm on the road at the mo but am back in the kitchen on Friday. This is first in the list - there's enough differences in the ingredients to make me really looking forward to it!

That you so much for taking the time to share with us. I have one question, your Red Sauce Mix appears to be lightly spiced coloured yoghurt. Why are these ingredients mixed together and not specified as single items on your ingredients list?
-
What happened to step 4 in the method above? Is there something missing?
-
step 5 is actually meant to be step 4
-
Step 6. Place madras in bin.
Only kidding ;). Haven't tried the recipe. Have decided though that my next base will be Taz, to spec. Interested to see how it goes.

OOC, what happened about Bonehoney's query?
-
Can't thank you enough for this, I have been using yoghurt in madras of late to great effect as a marinade on chicken, so can't wait to try this out.
I can also see quite clearly, In the recipie the ingredients are a paste not separate items!
Many thanks.

Interested to here your results LC

:) shall be glad to report back MA, I will try make curry in few days, but so far have found the yoghurt has made my sauce very creamy! It also seems to bring all the oil back out of the curry.
