Notes
You can increase the quantities of this sauce and then freeze it.If you are not going to use it right away, keep it in the fridge.It will solidify as it cools if you leave it for a while, so just heat it up again on the hob and stir it.You can change the spice levels in this curry by altering the chilli flakes or also by adding chilli paste.If the sauce thickens too much just add a little liquid.If the sauce isn't thick enough, add a little extra flour (always mix this with a little water first rather than spooning dry flour it)If you don't have cornflour (cornstarch), you can use gluten free plain flour, but, you might need a little bit more and to cook it for slightly longer.
