Steps

1
Done

- TO MAKE THE BASE LAYER

1. to begin heat a pan on medium and add the oil

2. add the garlic and ginger paste, stir through and fry for 30 seconds

3. turn up the heat to max and add the tomato puree, salt, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, stir through thoroughly and allow to cook out for a couple of minutes. (If you curries ever taste grainy it’s because you’re not cooking the spices enough at this stage)

4. add in half of the heated water, stir through and allow to reduce for a couple of minutes before adding the rest and allowing to reduce again

5. add your choice of protein and coat to stop it from drying out

6. allow to simmer until the meat is cooked through and the sauce is the consistency you require

7. remove from the heat and dish into a serving bowl

2
Done

- TO MAKE THE WHITE TOP LAYER

tip: if you get gritty curries with ground almonds soak in enough hot water to just cover them for 30 minutes before using

If you want your top layer to be white give your pan a quick rinse, otherwise just use the same pan you cooked the base layer in, it will give the sauce a beige appearance

1. start by heating the pan on medium and add all of the ingredients into the dish starting with the coconut, almonds and sugar, followed by the butter and cream

2. combine well and allow to simmer for 3-5 minutes

3. remove from the heat and pour over the base layer
