You might also look for Roti Cannai, a similar idea but more Singapore/Malaysian. I've not conquered making roti, but the Kawan brand frozen Paratha work very well for the purpose.

Sounds like you just want the sauce, but not the protein per se?
In that case I would take any recipe, like chicken tikka massala, and half the amount of chicken, leaving spices & other sauce ingredients the same
(Or keep chicken amount but double all else)
And you'll have your extra sauce

I actually do this very often ..

Hi George! (I grew up on Winnebago St. in Appleton!)

As a starting point...

Where did you get the Indian Curry gravy that you like?

Take out? Envelope? Can/jar? Freezer?

What was it called?

Search internet for whatever it is called and look at common ingredients and techniques from at least four different recipes.

Then give it a try in your kitchen!

Good luck

I love naan bread at Indian restaurants and would love to make some at home. The first recipe I tried was basically like a pizza dough it was OK but not like the restaurant naan. Then I found one from Madhur Jaffrey. It had no yeast, instead used baking powder, baking soda, yoghurt and egg. I thought that it should be authentic so tried it tonight. It looked more like naan but it tasted like scones. Has anyone got a tried and true recipe for me?

What type of naan are you trying to duplicate from the restaurant? As you've already tried, there are many with yeast, and without, and there are some with different flours, and many with garlic added, and black sesame seeds are often pressed into them. And a traditional method of cooking is using a tandoor - something sometimes approximated by cooking on cast iron, and then tossing the naan on an open flame briefly. My favorite naan is the butter naan, with the yeast, usually with half the atta flour and half unbleached. Here's a source for some recipes - maybe you'll see something that makes you think of what you are trying to duplicate.
