British Indian Vindaloo with no base gravy

Post by Rusty »

Playing around with BI vindaloo using his mix of spices but instead of base gravy I just chopped an onion,tin of diced toms, garlic ginger and a little water, just like a Pataks jar.

The Result

I bet it tasted better than anything that came out of a Pataks jar Rusty, good idea though, it's makes it very interesting to try different things sometimes.

Looks good. No reason why you can't make a good curry without gravy. It's not exactly a mystery what's in the gravy anyhow, so there must be other ways of arriving at the same destination.

Thanks guys

The curry turned out not bad at all, next time I am going to purée the tomatoes and maybe add some French onion soup instead of water :shock: just to soften the tomatoe taste.

I used pre cooked beef Slicker

I did make two dishes using the exact same spice mixing Into a paste but the second curry I used my base gravy poured in all in one go cold :whistle: then simmered for about 10 mins.

Both curries were nice but we thought using base gravy was the better of the two.
