Basic Red Curry Sauce-The way you like it!

This is a recipe given to me by my sister in law.

I have altered it and made it the way I felt was good and colorful.

Curry sauce is made and stored for daily use by many restaurants this way-the recipe may vary.

This sauce can be kept in the freezer -put the sauce in Ice cube tray and save in a bag in the freezer. Take out one or more pieces as you need.

This recipe uses Onions, garlic, tomatoes, and spices. You can make it hot or mild-as you want-just add or reduce the chili powder. You can substitute fresh tomatoes, and a can of  6 Oz of Tomato paste with 16 Oz can of stewed tomatoes do not add water if you use stewed Tomatoes.

I have used Kashmir Chili powder as it has vibrant red color.

You can use this sauce to make Vegetable curry, add to any Daal, make a Dip, or use your imagination.
