Hello all, been looking through all the base recipes and well i was missing one item from this one and one from the other, i also had some ingredient's lying about that needed to be used up. So i thought i would make a base recipe version that kinda encompases all the usual stuff.

750G sliced onion
2 stalks of celery
1 standard can chopped tomatoes (400ml)
50 ml garlic/ginger paste
small bunch fresh coriander
2 cups water

1 tsp deggie mirch
1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp curry powder
1 tsp tumeric
1 tsp ground cummin
1 tsp groun coriander


1. fry onions on low heat till onions are softened, about 15 mins
2. add garlic/ginger paste, fry another couple of mins
3. add tin of tomatoes, fresh coriander, chopped celery, cook on low heat for 20 mins.
4. add everything else, including the 2 cups of water.

Hi Jimmy,

I'm not sure what's happened to your photo Jimmy?  It seems that you can see it SL?  I can't.

Have you tried using the instructions here Jimmy: http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=1475.0

If you still have problems, please let me know (message me) and I'll help sort it out

sorry guys having a prob getting my pics to work right on the site's new way of posting them. I think its because my pics are high res and over the stipulated 1.5meg, i think i will need to download a pic manipulation program to get them to work. I was using imageshack before which did all the re-sizing ect for me. I understand the need to do it via the sites pic hosting facility however and will just work around it. just home from shopping trip so will look at it tonight and get the pics up.
