>when a recipe lists more than six ingredients

This is the shit keeping me from making 'proper' curry. How do you guys do it? Is there a key to it like "look for the important ingredients and ignore things like herbs and spices"?

I can do 'home cooking' style throw-shit-in-a-pot and make all sorts of soups and mixtures to pour over rice, but I've never been able to follow a recipe that has had more than six ingredients.

While I'm at it, shit like "add half a teaspoon of tahini" like fucker where the hell am I supposed to get half a teaspoon of tahini from? They only sell them in 2 liter containers around here. And all this fancy ass bullcrap like "lightly beat two eggs and a pinch of cream of tartar in a froppe dish" fucker I've got a pot and a pan and a slow cooker. I just wanted to make some fucking chicken corn chowder and these assholes have me looking in a dictionary trying to figure out the etymology of half of these ingredients so I know which ethnic supermarkets I need to drive to.

they have pre made spice blend for this reason, if you don't make shit often then use that to start ie chili powder. buy cumin in bulk though.

What the hell kind of curry are you making? Good, Nipponese curry is just

>chicken

>chicken stock

>onions

>garlic

>ginger

>potato

>carrot

>curry roux

<butter

<flour

<garam masala

<curry powder

<pepper powder for spice

Which is 8 ingredients, and not all recipes use garlic and ginger. You can easily make a proper Nipponese curry with just a slow cooker and a pan.

>caramelize a lot of onions

>throw it in slow cooker

>saute garlic and ginger and throw that in too

>throw in chopped vegetables and chicken

>make basic chicken soup (I seriously hope you can do this)

>mix roux in when the soup is almost ready

>serve on rice

Making roux yourself is mildly complicated.

>melt better

>add flour

>keep stiring

>add spices

I like to add the spices and flour together if it's pre ground, gives it a better flavor
