Right, I have been experimenting with different curry sauces and have found that the best so far is Lloyd Grossman's Rogan Josh.
I am in the middle of making a chicken jalfrezi, also from the Lloyd Grossman range
Can anyone recommend any good curry sauces that I could try?

Going to say...to make a good curry sauce, you have to do it yourself, including grinding your own spices.

If I make a curry, a pasta dish or a chilli etc. I'd make them from scratch. As long as you get the base ingedients right it's just a case of adding herbs, garlic and spices etc. to taste

the best sauce from a jar in my opinion is the asda own range balti one.beats the dearer brands easily.
but making a decent curry from scratch is a peice of piss.
an onion, some curry powder,tom puree,fresh coriander,a little water,and some oil is all you need.

I leave it to Mrs C, she cooks a mean curry from scratch, but she's a little over-protective with her recipes. Although she normally just gets a base recipe (try the Good Food website) and tweak to suit your own taste. |

My missus also does an awesome curry from scratch. Trouble is I have no idea how she does it.

Who said anything about authenticity. You're just being pedantic now :-))(
Why not go the whole way and grow your own ingedients? And put a couple of chickens in the back garden you can cook for that 'authenticity'.
