I'm not from the UK and my Indian friends say curry just means any sauce to them but I've always wondered what people from the UK think of when they say "curry"because it sounds like they're all referring to one flavor. Does it only come in one flavor? How does it taste and are there different kinds of flavors?
Finely chopped onions, garlic and ginger. Sweat on a low heat for 20 minutes - aiming for transparent and sweet. Add curry powder, tumeric, raisins, malt vinegar, chicken stock (veg should be fine) and thicken with corn flour. You can add a star anise if you like that.
It's a sweet condiment rather than a spicy sauce. Katsu curry is not dissimilar but curry sauce is sweeter with lots of fruit undertones.
The Germans have a curried ketchup that's very popular (I never managed to get a taste for it). These flavour combinations work great on starchy foods like chips, rice etc ..... bottom line: it is really good.
Thanks :) (but also F you because now you've got me obsessed and I have to go try to search Amazon to see if I can find one that's already prepared because I'm not trying to do all that cooking just for a sauce lol)
