Excellent way to whip up a large batch of curry base that can be added to vegetables meat or fish anytime! Never thought of such a way the same curry base can be used to make so many varieties of dishes
There is nothing of the Indian subcontinent in this video I'm afraid. Perhaps people who aren't from there or understand the food well, might enjoy this recipe but there is so much wrong with it, I don't even know where to begin.
1. Powdered spices need to be rendered in 'bhuna' as much as whole spices, just later on in cooking. To mix them in oil before adding the paste you made is bizarre. 2. Why are you using whole garam masala at the start, then blending it, and adding more powdered Garam masala? 3. Powdered Garam masala is rarely added to dishes at that stage. It is mostly a garnish to add once a dish is ready and the heat is off. 4. You under cooked the onions, before adding ginger and garlic, which were also under cooked before adding the tomatoes. Each of these needs to be rendered (bhuna) appropriately for each dish. You used too small a pan to cook onions like that. They will boil rather than fry. And red onions, not the best for the base of Indian dishes. Pink ones are best, but white onions are the better alternative if pink can't be found. 5. If you had carried out the bhuna stages correctly, there is no need to blend the base. 6. The use of cashew and melon seeds is for very specific recipes. I would not use them in a base sauce like that.
Thats all I can think of right now. My point is, that 'curry' is a colonial notion. There is no such thing as curry. Because each dish is distinct, but because the British didn't understand it, they just called almost the entire Indian cuisine: curry. Creating one-base-fits-all type things like these further perpetuate that misunderstanding of Indian cuisine. If you want to make Indian food, watch recipes used by home cooks.
Very nice receipe for curry base 👍 . Just want to know do they add plain flour in gravy vegetables in restaurants? Any idea? I don’t think they are adding cashew or almond or melon seeds in gravy .

500ml litre oil used😱🤔
😫 I MISS INDIAN FOOD SO MUCH
Thanks. Was looking for this recipe.
how long it stays in fridge ?

This is why Indian food gets a bad rep
Okay, I've got a question. Won't grinding that huge amount of whole spices over power the base curry? I usually take those out before mixing.
How long can we store this paste in tropical weather conditions 🤔
can a curry dish ever be made without putting anything on a blender?
How long can you use this base, when you keep in fridge
Tasty but not healthy…too much oil is used
Amazing. Can we avoid cashews and melon seeds
How long can we refrigerate this curry base for a longer run ?
