Doin thangs!

We cooked some salmon last night, and though I saved a bunch by buying the farm raised one, tonight's covered too, and I was able to buy big dinner for 2 people, 2 nights, for under 30 bucks. I gotta stop ordering in so much, Fairway is the joint...

Red Curry is a must.

Tamarind shouldnt be that hard to find.

I never attempted to make my own Curry. Sounds very satifying, but the last of ingrediants is crazy.

I went to the new Penzeys spice shop here in Richmond this weekend. They had like 5 kinds of Paprika. I highly recommend checking one of their stores if they are in your area. That curry recipe looks good, thanks.

Jungle Curry with Roast Duck

At work so no recipe, but this guy mentions the David Thompson book I learnt it from after spending a couple months in Thailand falling in love with the food and beaches - those Australian chefs know how to make some seriously authentic yet totally upscale Thai food too.... sampled some great food at The Longgrain in Melb last week. Broke the bank but sooooo good.

Not sure if this would properly be called a 'curry,' as it's south Indian (a recipe modified from one belonging to my Tamil girlfriend's mother's); but:

4 medium - large potatoes
2-4 tablespoons black mustard seeds
2-4 tablespoons dried lentils (forget the exact kind)
Many leaves of coriander (to taste)
Madras curry powder (to taste)
Sambar powder (to taste)
Garam Masala (to taste)
1 whole onion, chopped
garlic (to taste, chopped
sea salt (to taste)
1 tablespoon tumeric
1 tablespoon paprika
2-4 tablespoons chili powder (or to taste, if you're weak)
handful fresh chilies, sliced vertically down middle
4 tablespoons cooking oil (EVO preferably)

Boil potatoes until soft; hand-peel and dice (medium-large).

While potatoes boil, fry lentils and mustard seeds in oil until they begin to pop.
Add onions and garlic; fry until golden.
Add chilies.
Add potatoes.
Coat generously with chili powder, Madras curry powder, garam masala, sambar powder, tumeric, and paprika.
Flip potatoes and repeat coating on flip-side.
Add salt.
Add coriander.

Serve with basmati rice and a side of either tomato pachadi or simple sour cream and enjoy your simple potatoes.

Tomato pachadi is little more than chilies, mustard seed, coriander, and tomatoes, fried, then added to a mixture of nearly equal parts sour cream and yogurt.

This whole dish has a proper name, I just forget the Tamil.

jamaican ital curry stew.

has to have jamaican pumpkin and calaloo in addition to onions, scallions, ginger, garlic, curry, scotch bonnet, irish, yam, carrots, thyme and plantain. and if you add fresh coconut it gets even yummier.
