Curry Continued


Hmmmm it seems like M is posting a lot for "not posting"! Haha, well in a week or so we will be reviewing an Indian restaurants (and a few more in the future). In this time frame we will also be creating yellow chicken curry! The recipe is unique and is absolutely delicious! So be ready to pull out the frying pan! I've noticed for me loving curry so much i haven't told you much about it! Curry powder is the base of the meal, and it's all spice! Common spices that are found in this are; paprika, cumin, ginger, tumeric, coriander, cardamom, and red pepper! Some recipes include coconut milk too! Then as it's served, it can be either be a sauce for naan, drizzled over rice, or (my favorite) made into a naan wrap! Did you know that you can also curry vegetables? Why, yes you can. Either mix them into the chicken curry or curry them up by themselves! Onions and scallions are two that are popular in curries! This is cool, did you know that there is evidence of curry eating back in the 1700 B.C. in Mesopotamia? Or that the spicy curry began when Christopher Columbus brought peppers in trade to India? Well its true! so much culture in just one bite of curry! The reason for yellow curry's "yellow" is tumeric. That's why not all dishes are yellow! Well this is getting really long!
