what's missing in my curry?
44 Answers
i fried my onions until they were really brown, seared the stewing steak, dry fried the curry powder, cumin, coriander and chilli, and bunged it in the slow cooker for 6 hours with some beef stock and a tin of chopped tomatoes and salt and pepper.
Don't get me wrong, it's quite nice, and lovely and tender, but there's something missing. What could i add to it now?
It seems to be missing a richness. Maybe coocnut cream? (Although I have put that with a beef curry.)

I don't know what you could add to it now, but could I pass this recipe on to you?.
It makes a really delicious curry. Though when I make it I use tinned tomatoes, add extra garlic, a tin of 'blitzed' chickpeas, and a tbsp of garam masala. A word of caution - if you don't like it too hot, add less chilli powder.
You can use any meat for it, doesn't have to be lamb. Good luck.

You should have fried the spices in Ghee or clarified butter not dry fried. The ghee or butter adds richness. You can't have low fat curry it just does not work.
On a side note Morrison's have got jars of ' Savers' Curry sauce for 17p (yes 17p) I got some expecting it to be rubbish but it is good, I did a chicken curry with it, it all got eaten and no one complained ( near a miracle in our house)
so now I have stocked up with 12 jars . sure the price will go up.

You can have low fat curries I used to go to an indian restaurant in Essex that was always packed with members of the local asian community the curries were nothinhg like the ones you get in restaurants aimed at the british market.. they were light not hot but very big on flavour and hardly left a greasemark on the plate
