Make it and report back.
How does one make chip shop curry then?
Is this in the cafe or a ready meal? The chips and gravy are £1.05 in the cafe and they are quite nice.
If I'm an uneducated eater then so be it.

I have no idea what an uneducated eater is. How educated do you need to be to eat?
Here is a recipe:

I'm sure all of those ingredients come to under £1
My mum has bought some of these, i think its beacuse they were so cheap as no one in the house will eat them!

They do once you have them at home. Curry powder, flour, oil, tomato puree, lemon juice they are all things that you keep in the cupboard/fridge. They cost a few pence when you use them a bit at a time.
So then it's an apple, an onion and a few potatoes.
What do you think, Asda subsidises the cost of what they sell for you?
Asda sells food cheap because it's cheap food, they aren't magicians.

I for some reason didn't realise they were being sarcastic. I'd have priced that recipe much much lower!!!! The amazing spice is curry powder! shocking!

I don't have curry powder, tomato puree or lemon juice around. Some oil somewhere...
I tried Waitrose 'Chinese Curry Paste' and that tasted just like I remember Chip Shop Curry Sauce from decades ago...........I haven't had any since then as they don't seem to go in for chips and curry sauce (or gravy !) in London..........
