Spicy Indian One Pot Curry Spicy Indian One Pot Curry
This dish was one of the first complicated things I'd tried in my kitchen. I've always loved beans and vegetables. Both these come together in a curry that my aunt used to make during the harvest festival that we celebrate in Southern India called Pongal. It's mostly made in rural areas where the first fist-fulls of all the crops grown by a household and the village are used to make a curry which is offered to the Sun God as a thank you for providing life on earth. This curry is eaten with the "first rice" that is slightly overcooked to give it a sticky, gummy consistency. Since this festival always occurs during the month of January, I've always felt that this was an excellent way to start the year, with a little bit of the best of everything, coming together in a harmonious medley that always managed to explode my senses. This recipe is my interpretation of that nostalgic dish that I associate with festivals, family and cold weather. I hope you try it and enjoy it as much as I do. thelittlecurryball -
Singaporean Fish Head Curry Singaporean Fish Head Curry
#nonindian - This is a very popular Singaporean style Fish Head curry cooked in coconut milk, tamarind water and along with some veggies thrown in. It is best enjoyed with plain steamed rice. I had the privilege of tasting this delicacy at Muthu's restaurant, Singapore, where it has originated. There are a lot of versions to this dish. It is prepared with lemon grass, kaffir lime leaves, chinese cabbage in the Chinese style and in the Malay version, prawn paste and galangal are added. But one thing is for sure, whatever way it is cooked it is just awesome. Bethica Das -

Quick Dry Curry Starring Beans Quick Dry Curry Starring Beans
As I was using pre-cooked beans, I wanted to make something quick! So I chopped the vegetables finely and made dry curry. You can fully enjoy the beans as they are bigger than the other ingredients.Cut the onion, carrot and potato evenly into 5 mm cubes. It tastes nice with corn as well. I recommend using a scum-removal sheet. Using this sheet, you can remove the scum and excess fat easily as the ingredients are very small pieces. Add 2 blocks of curry roux to start, and one more block if it's needed. For 4 servings. Recipe by Muuko cookpad.japan -

Although this curry is for vegetarians, beans are a great source of protein and highly nutritious.Since the original recipe is vegetarian, I use olive oil, but you could substitute with butter.The cinnamon stick is used to add fragrance. If you don't have a cinnamon stick, substitute with about 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Recipe by crann cookpad.japan -
