Basically, you finely chop an onion, 4 or 5 things of garlic, x chillis, and a finger ginger and fry that all. Then, depending which dish you are making, you add your spices. I like: 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp garam masala, 1/2 ground coriander 1/2 tumuric. Stir all that together. Add the meat/fish/tofu. Brown. Add wet stuff (could be tomatoes or natural yog). Simmer on a low heat for 15/20 mins. Add some veggies if you like.
I don't think I've ever seen a recipe that calls for sugar.
