My Quest for Curry


Ever have one of those days where your out running errands and realize that our are hungry? Looking around at the food options that are available and come up with bland over processed food that makes your tummy turn at the thought of it. Then suddenly you realize just exactly what you want. So you set out for that particular restaurant only to find that it has closed. This happened to me the other night and since then I have been on the quest for curry. I am not one of those people that backs down from a good cooking challenge having made some fairly good curry's at home before I went home and went directly to the spice cabinet. Gathering up all the spices necessary to make Garam Masala. Begin with toasting the whole spices and then grinding them. The aroma filling my kitchen was sweet and spicy. The recipe that I have used in the past marinades the meat in a yogurt spice  mixture. This is where I deviate from the original recipie. I add lots of chopped veggies and saute the meat rather than cooking on skewers over a fire. My quest for curry being complete I can now sit back and enjoy my feast.
