Chef’s notes
- Use a curry powder with a declared ingredient list; some contain mustard. Suitable for poached chicken or roast squash.
- When scaling, adjust pan or tin size and work in batches where needed; cooking and proving times follow texture and temperature, not the portion multiplier.
Keeping
