Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I would like to find more ways to cook these greens, but I don't think I like curry.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 There are lots of kinds of curry, Jonnie. DH said the same thing when I first met him. He also said he didn't like Japanese cooking and that he wouldn't eat sushi (he tought that equally raw fish). We had curry noodle soup last night and he loved it. There is sweet curry, mild curry, hot curry. All kinds of curry.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Curry is a bit of an ambiguoius term, try and avoid using curry paste as it usually tastes crap. Instead try this : fry some mustard seeds until the pop, add curry leaves & fenugreek and fry for a while then add some onions and brown, then chuck in some finely chopped green chillies and grated ginger & garlic, then some ground cumin and turmeric. Chuck in a tin of chopped tomatoes, and let cook for a while with a pinch of sugar. Then add some cocnut milk.Basic curry sauce. Vary the quantities to suit your tastes. A lot of things taste good with just one or two spices, nearly everyone likes cumin ( best to roast and grind the seeds - smells wonderful ) and it is a good one to start exploring spices with, the other obvious one being coriander. I like to use spinach with as little done to it as possible.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Hmmm.. at the store I've just seen curry. I've tried it a couple of times at restaurants and didn't particularly like it.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 A curry is just an indian stew, infiniate variables, infinate spice mixes. I suggest you try and make your own, but keep it simple and experiment with spices ( 1 or 2 at a time ) The Valley Vegan................Jonnie Hellens <jonnie_hellens wrote: Hmmm.. at the store I've just seen curry.
