Mayflower Curry Sauce

This deserves its own thread.

Stumbled across this today, £1 for a box in Iceland's. It is amazing! Exactly like the Chinese take away. Out of all the curry sauce mixes I've tried over the years this is closest you're going to get to the Chinese take away. Seriously go and get some!

Comes in a take away style box as powder mix with water and bring to boil. Job done. Comes out really thick too. Perfecto.

This stuff is excellent, also get the Southern Style Gravy Mix, KFC Style and ruddy lush

I saw that when I got this, I'll definitely get that next then!

Probably because it's laced with MSG

Haha, Uncle Roger would be happy. (If you've heard of him) funny YouTuber obsessed with MSG and fried rice and cooking it properly. This one is good:

while it can be sorta similar it ends up often tasting no where as near as good as a proper chinese curry sauce. just find a really good one ask em or just have the sauce from them.

It's very very similar, it's convenience to have this for £1 in a tub in your cupboard instead of going to the Chinese every time to ask for sauce is a no brainer really.

Each to their own and all that. I definitely found its the closest out of curry sauces I've tried, will definitely have to look out for more. Love how thick is gets too.
