				I've not made a veggie curry for a good while, but I've always liked a good mushroom one, and cauliflower is also great in them, so I cooked some cauliflower first, then bunged that and the small mushrooms together with chopped tomatoes, onion and tomato puree, with half a jar of Patak's concentrated Madras paste in a large pot.
 
 
It's outstanding!
 
 
I'm gonna leave it on a low heat for a few hours, for the flavours to absorb even more, before eating... it looks, tastes and smells brilliant. |

Great stuff, and they do a range if you don't like it too hot (Madras is one of the hottest). |

				| I have numerous books on making curry. But the very best one i picked up in a waterstones for 5 pounds or so. Just a small paperbackThere are no pictures or anything just good basic fundamentals on how to make a curry. Its called "the curry secret" by Kris Dhillon. I know you can get it off amazon for 3.99. Check it out, it beats pataks by a country mile and once you've made a batch of the sauce and frozen its just as convenient. |

Cheers, there's a good Asian grain/spice store quite near and I have wanted to do what you say, but wasn't sure of the best way. |

Thanks.  I don't like really hot stuff so would likely go for one of the more mild ones. Still, sounds yummy though.  Hope you enjoyed your supper! |
