Uncle Rick’s Caribbean Chicken Curry (Revised)
This curry is a spice-lover’s dream…and a real crowd-pleaser. It’s wonderful comfort food on a cold fall or winter’s day.
South Indian Eggplant (Aubergine) Curry
This is an adopted recipe that I haven’t yet tried. The original chef comments: “My good friend’s Indian mother-in-law taught me how to cook this. Auntie (I call her Auntie) is from Hyderabad, is one of the best cooks I know and is very patient! There are a few steps to this recipe and you need some special ingredients, but it is really good, authentic South Indian cuisine. I’m posting some photographs with this recipe so you can see what these ingredients look like. They can all be found at an Indian grocery. Everything is listed in the order in which you will use it. Be brave; if you are patient, willing to take your time and have everything ready before hand, you will be rewarded with a delicious result. (Prep time is approximate and could be a little longer).”
Slow Cooker/Crock Pot Massaman Curry
This is just outstanding, and easy. Your house will smell amazing. It’s an adaption of my other recipe, which is Brigitte Hafner’s.
Japanese Curry Rice
A classic, but simple take on curry rice that is famous in Japan and is enjoyed world-wide. I got this recipe from one of my Japanese friends when we were little. Her mom used to make it for us as a special treat, and also made us each a small cookbook with our favorite dishes she would make us in it. I came across the book the other day and tried out a few recipes. This was one of them. I hope you guys all enjoy it! ^_^
Chiang Mai Curry Noodles (Kao Soi)
In Northern Thailand, kao soi is a meal for one, served up in an enormous bowl and garnished with a playful tangle of crunchy egg noodles fried crisp for a contrast in texture to the tender noodles and smooth, sunny-colored sauce. The standard condiments include Chinese-style ground chilies in oil, chopped pickled cabbage and wedges of lime. *** To make crispy noodle nests, you’ll need about ½ lb thin fresh egg noodles. Heat about 2 cups vegetable oil in a wok or small, deep skillet to about 375 F. Carefully add a handful of noodles, let it sizzle and brown a few seconds, turn gently with tongs, and transfer the “nest” to a platter to cool. Serve in individual soup bowls with chopsticks or forks for the noodles, and big spoons for the delicious curry sauce. Recipe courtesy of Nancie McDermott.
