[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most Indian restaurants use a base sauce, which is not anything like real Indian food with fresh spices etc. So chances are, OP has never eaten proper Indian food. So you can't really dislike what you have never really had. [/quote] +1 Also, most Indian restaurants cater to non-Indian palates and don't include the really pungent or "hot" spices. So the result is a tepid, oily sauce that isn't spicy enough or distinctive enough to wow you. South Indian food, for example, is largely vegetarian. What's lovely about it is that they do a lot with vegetables that you just don't see as much in other types of food where vegetables aren't the main dish but rather relegated to a side dish or sometimes even just a garnish. But the best South Indian food I've had was homecooked. The spices were pungent and distinct. There was also a lot of texture. It wasn't slush, as OP describes. [/quote]
