Method

  • Place onion, garlic & giinger in food processor and blitz until very finely chopped (like a paste).

  • Heat oil in a pan on a medium heat and add onion, garlic & ginger paste. Keep moving and fry until thy go a dark golden colour, but not burnt.

  • Add the powdered spices at this point and stir for 20 seconds, then add the chopped tomatoes and continue to fry.

  • The basic sauce is ready when the oil seperates from the rest of the ingredients.

  • Once the sauce is ready you can use it how you wish, some ways I've used it are:

  • * stir in some lentils, add water and simmer to make dhal
  • * add coconut milk/water/yoghurt then chicken (or other meat of choice) and simmer until the meat is cooked

    • Tips

    • This sauce can be made ahead of time e.g. the day before. To use just add to the pan with some oil, fry until heated through then add your ingredients to it.

    This is a great basic curry sauce for making just about any curry, dhal, chicken, lamb, beef, veggie. You can adjust quantities to taste, serve it as a dry sauce or add liquid.
