6. Taste and check seasoning. Remove the bayleaves and chilli peppers.
Accompaniments: Serve with plain boiled rice and a selection of side dishes such as poppadoms, mango chutney, coconut, bananas, yogurt and sliced tomatoes and onions.

Dont use beef/meat, chicken is a must with curry :)
And use a bit of cream with your curry sauce! And coconut milk and/or cream wont hurt but bring some nice flavor.
