Made a slightly more basic version but followed most of the ingredients and technique ,left it overnight and used some of it for a basic tika mossala it was amazing thanks dude it's the bit that all my curry's has been missing !

[@Oriana83111]

Thanks Latif - I’m an 80 year old Australian fan of yours, having cooked your Dahl Bhuna and garlic/ginger paste and am excited to try cooking my BIR base sauce as you showed me. Cheers! I’ve just become almost vegetarian so will be watching for more of your recipes in future!!! 🎉Cheers 🇦🇺🌷✅💕🌟🌟🌟

Amazing. I have been learning Indian food recipes for 20 years plus and you have just made an old Chef wot cooks for family now very happy. Seriously never thought to basically use a masala chai to get the aromats and oils from the pods. Thank-you Chef, great video! 5 🌟

Not going to lie, the BIR recipes are by far my favourite videos on your channel so thanks for this. All the best for you and family over the holiday period!

[@Britboy2877]

Im going to make this tonight, thanks for sharing, much appreciated

[@pablo12250]

OMG. The best Masala curry base I have ever made. I eliminated cream and only used 2 tablespoons oil for a double batch, but it was still creamy,, mild and so delicious. I’m so happy to have found the perfect masala sauce. Thank you!!!!

[@DeauvilleBob]

Definitely making this! You're a legend for posting it up. PS You left out 2 tbsps of tomato puree from the ingredients list in the description 🍅🍅

[@peterelmer9114]

Looks fantastic - I’ve got to try this as I’m missing my favourite takeaway which closed down 😩 Mr Mir and his chefs cooked a wonderful madras 😋

[@dpow888]

Great stuff!!! That blender was something else, you could mix plaster with that 😁👍

[@2DRonaldo]

I know, right? LOL I want one!

[@alexisbrun1]

I was just thinking the same!

[@danielleehim3077]

Bruv are you joking with that blender I only have a kenwood at home. Nuff respect latif but that blender is like a pneumatic drill LOL I'm gob smacked.

[@philhitchings]

The whole spices infusion thing is such a great idea, not only for preventing you from having to fish them out when it comes time to blending but more importantly, I think, you can control the intensity; especially with the cloves and cardamom. I've also started using whole green chillis with just the stems removed in my BIR gravy, then when I portion the sauce for freezing I do a couple containers without the whole chillis (my Mrs is very heat sensitive) and then return them for another blitz to the other containers for my solo meals.

[@leethompson9257]

You are a legend in my household, every one loves your recipes. Base gravy, here I come :)

[@jimmchugh7277]

Just followed this exactly.. House smells unreal 👌👌nice one chef

Ive tried many base graves but this is one of the best out there ! thanks chef

[@alantrundle2230]

I’m making it in my pressure cooker. Generally making use of the cooker hot with lid off to fry garlic, ginger and tomato purée before adding spices, veg, and then Garam masala water. Pressure lid on, on soup mode for 1 hour. I have to say this base gravy is one of the best I’ve made. Sometimes simple is better 👍👍

[@coco_onigiri]

Great idea w the pressure cooker!

Amazing, Chef! I’m so surprised more B.I.R haven’t done this in the past. Let’s be honest, the absolute vast majority buy your skilful curries. Only us purists have a go, and even then we eat out more than prepare. It’s a purist thing and we love to see ‘how it’s done’. No restaurant or takeaway will EVER suffer as a result of ‘How to’ video’s. We value you and just like having a go now and then 🥰
