I'm making a curry and it tastes too tomatoey - what can I do?

Question

I'm making a beef curry and i was supposed to put in 60g of tomatoes and I put in about 120g. I've also added onion, 10g garlic, 10g ginger, 1 tsp turmeric, 4 tsp soy sauce (as per the recipe), 1 tsp tomato puree, 1 tsp garam masala 1 tsp salt, 200ml water (its cooking just now - and I'm supposed to add 600ml total). I need help right now !!

I have yet to add pepper and mushroom, this will probably help. I may add more salt and brown sauce?

I added more turmeric and extra coriander. The turmeric seemed to soften the tomatoes' fruitiness. The coriander just did what coriander does at the end of a curry. Thank you for your advice.

Answer 1

I agree with "me". Double the quantities to balance the whole thing out.

Have your meal and when the contents of the pan has cooled seperate the curry mixture into meal sized portions in freezer bags and put them in the freezer. Hey presto you've got an instant meal. The sauce alone is brilliant over chips.

Answer 2

HI the answer to the question is that every recipe is open to change whilst you added too much of one ingredient by doubling the amount of tomatoes, the easiest way to have the recipe turn out the way it was described in the book is to double the amount of the other ingredients to match. I hope this helps.

Answer 3

Put some Garam Masala in it will cover tomato taste but make it hotter.Add it a bit at a time and keep tasting.

Answer 4

i would probably add more meat or more vegetables. Or what you could do is strain some of the tomato sauce before you let it simmer. Or you could run everything through a collander, then add what liquid back to the curry. good luck..let us know how it turns out!

Answer 5

Add a bit of salt to kill the tomato sweetness and a touch of brown sauce to kill the fruitiness.

Answer 6

Did you fry and brown your onion first?Ginger and garlic has to be fresh!Don't add sauce try adding some diced potatoes.If you have fresh coriander leaves it should rectify the flavour.

Answer 7

Remove the tomatoes?

warmth in curries is getting very just about standardized a million. uncomplicated at the same time with Pasanda Korma hen Tikka Masala or Makhani. Pasanda is the mildest in this classification. 2. ordinary fairly spiced at the same time with Rogan Josh 3. warm at the same time with Madras 4. very heat at the same time with Vindaloo 5. fairly warm at the same time with Phall or Tindaloo Tandoori is a young dish yet not as uncomplicated as Pasanda. you need to upload warmth to Tandoori yet than it would not be Tandoori. Balti is ordinary warm dish which could be made warmer by employing including distinctive spices.

Madras is assessed as a warm curry yet not as warm as Vindaloo yet warmer than ordinary Balti. Madras is often made as warm as Phall by employing including Scotch Bonnett or Habanera pepper.

I prefer both fruits and fruit and vegetables better, regardless how they look and taste. You desire a little of both.

Answer 10

If perhaps it's a fruit it includes seeds, otherwise it's a vegetable. And vegetables are usually grown in the ground while fruits are grown in trees.
