We got to know our local chinease takeaway well.
When speaking to them they mostly use Mayson Which comes as either granuals or better as a block you desolve.
We tried it and it is the stuff 100%. Asda do a local products island and it's now on there in the north east. I've searched ebay and it's there aswell.

As for the fried rice the trick is not to use fresh rice. At a takeaway they use tonights boiled rice as fried tomorrow. They let it go stale (hard) and this absorbs the frying much better without going stodgy.

I usually keep pastes in the fridge once opened.

I usually stick any extra thinly on some tinfoil and into the freezer - that way you can just break off as much as you like - it seems to work quite well for me!

Hi PP

Many thanks, wonder why I couldn't find it under the search function

Within the link, there seems to be only 1 recipe for chinese curry, however, there was a mention for Wingyip.com, never thought about them, I'll take a look on there.

:beer:

This is the recipe we use in our house, tastes very like the chinese take away ones:

Ingredients
•2 tbs. oil •3 cloves garlic, chopped •1 inch piece ginger, peeled and chopped/pureed or thinly sliced •2 tbs. plain flour •2 tsp. curry powder (Madras or similar from Chinese grocers) •1/2 tsp. salt, adjust to taste •1/2 -1 tsp. chilli powder (depends upon how hot your curry powder is) •1 tsp. sweet paprika powder (I use normal paprika powder)


Instructions
1.Mix curry powder and flour in a bowl and keep aside. 2.Heat oil. 3.Add ginger and garlic and stir fry for 1-2 minutes. 4.Add flour and curry powder mix and allow it to bubble. 5.Add salt, paprika and chilli powder. Stir. 6.Add enough water, a little at a time, to get sauce consistency. Bring to boil and simmer briskly for a few minutes. Turn the heat off. This is the basic curry sauce like the ‘take-away, shops and people generally buy it with chips/French fries, as a dipping sauce. 7.You can also use it to make take-away style curries. When you are ready to cook a curry, like chicken, prawns, pork or boiled potatoes etc., heat 1 tbs. oil in a wok, stir-fry the chicken/prawns/meat/potatoes and add the curry paste. Continue to stir-fry for a few minutes. Add a little water, if you want more gravy. 8.Serve hot, with rice or noodles.

Cheapest place to buy all the spices is Lidl or Aldi.
