Thought I'd post something uplifting. I really like Chinese curry as opposed to Indian. Too spicy for me even the mild ones.
The problem is that if it's a chicken curry the Take-Away uses cheap chicken which is like rubber so why can't we make our own. ? I haven't come across anyone who can make Indian curry taste the same as from the restautrant or Take-Away. Packets/jars from the supermarket haven't matched up, either. Will it be the same for Chinese. ?
I found this Chinese curry sauce concentrate paste and I'd say it's at least as good ,in not better, than from the Take-Away. Just add water .100gm of the paste to 300 gms of water ..that's 352 mls. Instructions on the box. My wife bought quality chicken breast,onions,mushrooms and green pepper. Just as the Take-Away would serve it .We used Uncle Ben's mushroomn rice. It goes well. It tasted excellent.
We got ours from Amazon ..about £4 but I see Tesco do it for £2.75 online so probably instore,too. It's 405gms and 100gms gave us a meal each and we still had enough for a spare portion. Read the reviews in the Tesco link. First one says it's "too bland" ..personal taste...but the rest sing its praises.

I see Sainsburys sell it,too. £2.80 405gms. My wife thought the mix she made was a wee bit thick so added a little more water.
I see Goldfish do Indian and Japanese pastes ,too. I suspect that the Chinese Take-Aways use the 4.5Kg size tub. I'm sure they wouldn't go to the trouble of making it themselves. Maybe the Indian curry paste is what the restaurants/Take-Aways use, too.
