Hello fellow Indian food lovers,

I’m a complete disaster when it comes to cooking Indian food from scratch… I’ve tried and it never seems as nice as the take away I can get. And I’m no slouch in the kitchen, but I seem to be missing layers of flavor when I try to cook some Indian food myself.

That being said… perhaps I can cheat? Do you know of a good brand that sells ready made curry pastes? I’ve got Patak available to me in my country (Belgium), but I don’t like the quality - there always seems to be some bitterness I can’t fix when I use those jars.

Thanks for your advice!

    Buy the whole spices and grind then cook them to make your own curry paste. The wet stuff in jars are rubbish, as is snything called curry powder.
