When i tasted the base sauce in the restaurant i couldn't believe how little spice i tasted.This is when they said that the final curry has the most spice.

And what IS the recipe for the final curry Kid Curry? I tried using Deathphall's adapted but it wasn't spicy enough. You got any measurements there to go with your base?

Josh,

on the salt - exactly what i found. 1 tsp tasted immediately after cooking well OTT. did u taste the dish 5 mins later though. the dish seems to change in a different way to when there is little salt in it.

too little salt and u don't get the same taste change in the 1st 5 mins.

i've settled on 1/4 tsp per 200ml finished portion.

Jerry,

Actually I put it in a metal takeaway container with the lid on for 5 mins. So it may have been worse if I ate it right away.

I too will settle on the 0.25 tsp.

Josh,

putting the too higher salt taste to one side in the 1 tsp test - after the 5 mins did u feel the taste of the curry had changed in the direction of BIR. i feel it did and as a result have also adopted the 1/4 tsp. this being a trade off between being able to eat the curry but still getting a bit of that BIR taste.

i'd appreciate your thought's to know if i'm going mad or not ie is the salt significant or not
