簡易印度羊肉咖哩


不是所有英國人英文都好。

有一天撘公車回家的路上,聽到有一個小女生跟他爸爸玩文字接龍。指定只能選食物。

A for apple.

B for banana.

才到c而已,兩個人就想不出來了,然後小女生突然叫出來C for sausage。爸爸一開始還點頭,點一下才說不對。c有什麼呢? C for curry。

我跟奈歐玩了一下,想不到x,也想不到z。我想可能只有希臘菜才能對的到這幾個字母。

此外,我試煮了印度椰汁羊肉咖哩。椰汁放不夠多,因此煮起來水水的。羊肉先用玉米粉裹過,所以比較不老,但是長時間熬煮,好像還是有點澀。但整體來說,很香,我很滿意。

4-5 lbs lamb cut into 1" square cubes
6 tbsp oil
1 med onion chopped coarsely
1 whole bulb garlic (approx 15 cloves) minced
3 tsp salt (more if desired, but start with this)
3 tsp tumeric powder (yellow curry powder)
6 tsp Masala powder (allspice)
1 bunch cilantro
fresh chilies (start with little bit, add to desired heat)
3 med potatoes, peeled and quartered
the leaves from 1 stem of curry leaves (optional)
4 cups water

1.In a large cooking pot on medium/high heat, add the oil, and heat until oil is hot, add onions, and fry until light brown.

2. Stir in tumeric powder, and 30 secs later add the garlic and chilies. Mix for about 1min, add the curry leaves (make sure no stems), and stir in the lamb.

3. Add the Masala powder and salt and mix. Cook covered for about 5 mins.

4. Add the water, then cover and cook for 20 minutes. Add the potatoes, and cook another 20 minutes covered.

5. Check to see if meat is cooked, potatoes are softened, and taste for salt, and chilies, and sauce has thickened.
