What’d You Do Last Weekend?
Make your own bitters.
Curry Dayz
I think I've lost my mind. I guess between the raw diet and the realization that we weren't moving forward on the house right now, I decided I needed to cook again. We've been getting ready for our trip to Singapore and Indonesia, and I've been reading about roti, curries, and strange Asian desserts - all of those things piquing my appetite for spicy, tangy, and flavorful. I opened the Vikram Vij cookbook we'd bought after our last trip to Vancouver, BC (it was a revelation!) and found a host of recipes I just had to try. And now we have a freezer full of curries that we can pop in the pan and heat for a tasty last-minute dinner anytime, paired with the meats he suggests (like halibut and duck breast) or something simple like tofu and seitan.
This week I made coconut curry, lime leaf curry, black garbonzo bean curry, and eggplant and papaya curry (which is mixed with the black garbanzo curry). Heaven.
