Tips
In this form, this paste will store in the fridge for up to a week. It can be frozen (eg in small yogurt pots) For the Tandoori Dry mix see my other recipe for this to ensure the best paste is made.

A must if you want to avoid all those stores selling pastes with artificial colourings etc.
Ingredients
- ALL YOU NEED
- 60g Dry tandoori mix (see my tandoori mix recipe)
- 2 tblsp or more vegatable oil
Method
- 1. Add just enough water to make a paste thick enough to drop sluggishly off the spoon.
- 2. Heat the oil, then add the paste, and stir continuously until after a few minutes it's colour has gone much darker, and the oils separates and 'floats' when the mixture is left to stand off the heat for a while.
