The nation's favourite tipple in an organic bundle. A great value wine, from Italy's ever popular Pinot Grigio grape. This wine is perfectly balanced with juicy pear and peach notes and soft floral aromas

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.
Chef's 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.
@ Curry Master – hey no jokes - if Levi Roots, the guy who did the Regae Regae sauce can do it, then why not you?
Hi Adrian and Anett,Wow, it's better than Pataks! Thank you so much for your rating and for your comments.I should go in to production and get this on the shelves!
@Adrian I agree with you its so much nicer than Pataks tandoori paste
Tried this tandoori paste recipe last night I must say its so much better than patak's tandoori paste that I used last week from tesco.
A must if you want to avoid all those stores selling pastes with artificial colourings etc.
