Some Like It Hot! Curry sauce
Submitted by Zoe on April 3, 2007 - 10:16am
Very tasty curry sauce that goes with spinach, red bell peppers, cauliflower, green peas…any veg really,
Ingredients:
1 cup pine nuts (or use almonds, or half and half, I know ine nuts are expensive!)
1 cup water
1 teaspoon salt - or to taste..it
needs quiet a bit to bring the flavours out though, I use 1 teasp
1 tablespoon fresh chopped ginger
2 tablespoon garam masala
1 tablespoon special curry blend powder - see note below
Preparation:
Blend it all then pour over veggies. Have a glass of water handy!!
Re-Special blend curry powder, this is easy to get here in the UK, because here curry is the national dish, and absoluntely everyone eats it. The kind I get is yellow and hot.
I know that
in the USA the curry blend powder isn’t always hot. So if you use it for this recipe, you should add chilli powder/or fresh hot chilli pepper to the recipe to make it work right. Add it to
taste.
Chris has just told me you can get hot curry powder in the USA and it is the red kind you want, not the yellow kind.

i made this a few days ago and i love it! it was very thick (so it didn't get watery and diluted when i mixed it with my veggies) and sooo flavorful. it really hit the spot, and i'll be making this all the time! thanks zoe!

OOOps sorry I left out the most important ingredient, the curry powder, thanks Joesc for bringing it to my attention. I added a note to the 'preparation' section of the recipe to explain. About the spices being raw, I am not sure...I usually make the sauce and mix it into a whole head of cauliflower ( food processed), a handful of coriander (cilantro) and a cup of raw fresh peas. And I feel fine, however, last night I made the sauce and just had it with a few spinach leaves and red pepper and I felt a little dodgy after, for the first time ever. I think it was because i hadn't had it with enough raw veggies.

Zoe are we suppose to add curry too or turmeric?

Kandace had the ingredients that she used to make it. Garam Masala includes grounded: pepper, cinnamon, cumin, cardamon, coriander, nutmeg, and cloves. I bought mine at the health food store and it stated grounded for everything, whether it was roasted it does't specify.

it is a apice blend and the spices are probably roasted but if you want to be sure you can mix it yourself.

is garam masala really raw?
