Took full advantage of daughter falling asleep on Sofa by whipping up a quick bowl of Chicken Madras, this one has come out really good.
I used less oil than yesterday but this could perhaps be reduced a little further but the Curry isn’t oily you can just see the separation it’s difficult to explain, less measuring and more of a skill full eye approach measurement wise then cooked on a lower heat and cooked for less time yet allowed sauce to cool slightly as it thickened further.

All jokes aside you could be on to something here, looks really good.
Good effort there!If I’m being honest, I’ve just had a quick small portion go at a Madras! It was beautiful, proper Takeaway consistency.
After a quick attempt there is so much I would do differently, even the book says how it does take some to judge temperatures, timings in terms of cooking out the Garlic, Spices and eventually the Paste which forms prior to adding Base Gravy.
I do plan to give this some effort and practise to the point where I can bulk make the bases and then quickly and effortlessly put together a few solid Takeaway style curries with ease.
I made a tiny portion as a tester but a small spoiler of my first quick attempt at a Paneer Madras with Naan Bread but I’m waiting for my Aluminium Pan to arrive before I document on here properly. Due 6-8th Feb
