      Hi Russ, yes they'd take quote a bit of boiling. Maybe 2 hours, definitely test a beans before taking off the heat. It may be worth buying a pressure cooker for the money you may save on fuel

    Hi, thanks Steven great video, but one quick question for you, doesn't the coconut block impart a massively overpowering coconut taste into the base sauce, and hence into every curry you make with it?

    hello , really enjoy your videos , in this one you said boil for 40 minutes and turn heat off ( and then mentioned 2 hours ) , is it turn heat down and leave for 2 hours and then blend or it takes 40 minutes , just about to buy a pressure cooker.

    • @StevenHeapRecipes
      @StevenHeapRecipes  9 месяцев назад +1

      Hi, sorry for any confusion. Boil for 40 mins and rest for 2 hours. Over night is even better. It's amazing taking off the lid next morning and seeing it cooled down completely. Allows more flavour to develop too (tip!

    Not to sure if you will see this comment due to it being an older video but I have a couple of questions regarding base gravy recipe in your cook book.
    1. Is there a particular oil you use.
    2. What size pressure cooker is needed for all the ingredients (it states 40 servings).
    Love the book!

    • @StevenHeapRecipes
      @StevenHeapRecipes  8 месяцев назад

      Hi Jed,
      Thanks 😊
      Sunflower, rapeseed, veg oil (all neutral tasting) all work fine.
      A standard 7 litre pressure cooker is fine. Once watered down to a 'paint like' consistency you should have about 12 liters and most servings use around 300 ml so approximately just under 40 servings
