Curry base

* 5 tablespoons of canola oil
* 2 tablespoons of butter
* Quarter of an medium sized onion
* 3 Garlic
* 1/2 inch of ginger
* 2 tblspns of a pre mixed tomato marinara or similar
* 3 heaped tblspns of your favorite curry mix
* water depending on consistency requirement
* vinegar
* salt to taste
* honey to taste
* cream to taste


Add the chopped onion to a hot pan of the oil. saute at a medium heat for 10 mins or so, add chopped garlic and ginger, allow to gently cook for another 10 mins or so.

Add spices and tomato plus a little hot water. good stir. I like to add the spices just a little before the tomato and water to allow them to settle into the fats first.

I usually cook at low heat for another 20 mins or so adding water as needed. 

Finally for the sauce, add the dairy/salt/sugar/vinegar Add these to taste. Also try adding a splash of orange juice instead of sugar for the sweetness.

Stir in your protein, veg and serve.
