1
Gather all the required ingredients. Remember to measure out the ingredients using measuring spoons and a level off the top for accuracy.
2
Over low to medium-low heat, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan.
3
Once the butter has completely melted, mix in the unbleached all-purpose flour using a wooden spatula, stirring continuously.
4
Allow the butter and flour mixture to cook over low heat, stirring frequently, for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Pay close attention, as the mixture burns easily.
5
Introduce the curry powder, garam masala, and cayenne pepper into the saucepan. Stir continuously as you cook for an additional 30 seconds then remove from heat.
STORING
6
Allow the curry paste to cool entirely. Transfer the cool paste into an airtight container for future use.
7
Store it in the refrigerator for up to a month or in the freezer for 3 to 4 months.
USAGE
8
When ready to use, simply spoon the desired amount of the roux into your dishes. Adjust the quantity based on your preference. Remember, this homemade roux isn't salted; hence you might need to adjust your dish's salt content accordingly.
