What is Curry Sauce? It is a puree of sauteed and simmered masala made with onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, sometimes carrots and plenty of spices. Some times even the stalks of coriander is added. The method to make this is same everywhere but the vegetables used vary depending on the availability and season.
The actual sweetness and creaminess of such curries meanwhile, usually comes from fried onions and either cashews and/or dairy products. Instead of (or in addition to) onion, ground coconut may be used. White poppy seeds and/or watermelon seeds are also used in some creamy sauces.
Freezing: Once cool, pour the curry base into airtight containers and freeze. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator, then you can add to your curry once defrosted. Be sure to heat it through, with your curry until piping hot.
