In all my videos i use a high power burner so cooking temperature's may vary cooking on a normal hob..Not all takeaways will ignite the food the way i do and just cook in the normal fashion..This is just my preference..The most important part is using the correct condiments and you will produce some amazing results..My subscribers are testament to that which i'm pleased about.
Below is a list of products i use,condiments,essentials tools etc

There is enough paste for about 20 portions..The paste in the video was made about a year ago stored in airtight container in my chiller..It has has an extremely long shelf life..If you eat more than 20 curries a year then this should ideal..The paste actually matures with age
The next day a layer of oil will form on top..This must be removed and can be used to flavour other things like noodle dishes etc..If left it will mix with the paste and your curry will be far too oily so it's important it's removed..Others will say leave the oil i recommend not too..It has to be removed for storing long term..The oil eventually will seep into the paste and be unusable..
This video is basically just to coincide with my recent chicken curry recipe. Some slight editing changes but not much...
