Holy Veggie Curry, Batman!

So I recently had the fortune to acquire from a coworker a zucchini of epic proportions. I’ve been feeding off of this sucker for weeks (well, off and on at least), and still have some left. After awhile, fried zucchini and zucchini bread just don’t cut it anymore. I don’t think I’ve never used zucchini [...]

Yellow Sour Curry Burninating

I haven’t made curry in awhile. Which is a shame, as curry is a delightful thing to make. Well, this past Christmas, since I love asking for food, I got, amongst other things, a bunch of cans of curry paste. I still had a surplus of curry paste from last Christmas that I’ve been too [...]

Improv Jamaican Curry

Sometimes I’ll dump a bunch of items into a pan, push then around for awhile, and it will taste magical. Unfortunately, the actions it takes to make this magic happen are identical to the actions it takes to make something taste like utter crap. I’d say that the most significant action that unites these two [...]

Since I haven’t posted about red curry in awhile…here’s a post with red curry in it!

I just really like red curry. I haven’t had a chance to make it really recently, unfortunately, as all of my interesting ingredients are either sitting, unused, at my parent’s house in Richmond, or are sitting, hopefully being used, at various friends’ houses. I did make some curry recently using Jamaican curry paste and, while [...]

Curry Art and Ice Cream Sandwich Art

Sometimes, I take a picture of something really neat, but the picture does not express the neatness of that photographed entity. Sometimes the photo can be tweaked, sometimes it can’t. Usually when the latter occurs, I just delete the picture. This time, I decided to flex the ole Photoshop skills. So, err, keep that in [...]

Curry, Starring Dirt Cheap Fish

So lets talk about dirt cheap fish, here. See, I can appreciate all ranges of fishes. On one end of the range, I have a huge affinity for tuna, barely seared with soy and wasabi involved, preferably. And on the other end, well, I also have a huge affinity for tuna. Albeit, from a can, [...]

Adventures in Getting Rid of Bean Sprouts (a.k.a. Curry Time)

I have mentioned before the dilemma of too many bean sprouts + not enough time. They become bean sprout paste by day 3 or 4 for me, so the little buggers must be eaten stat. This usually means pho up the wazoo. Eventually, however, one gets all pho’d out. This (for me at least) is [...]

Curry Rice

There seems to be a prevailing theory that, in order to eat well in this country, you have to have a load of money to spend on groceries. I, respectfully, believe this to be a load of bull. This theory leaves out the important phrase ‘with minimal effort’. Indeed, a nausea-inducing Banquet frozen meal will [...]

White Squash and Red Curry and Bad Pacman References

At some point in the not too distant past, this little bugger sauntered into my life: A mystery of a vegetable, indeed. I let it sit a few days, just to see if a yellow Pacman squash would wander in and try to eat it. When that didn’t happen, I figured that it was inevitably [...]

Chicken Curry with Coconut Milk

So I got this chicken, see. And I’ve been fantasizing about things involving coconut milk for awhile, now. And I had all this basil that was just rarin’ to get gnawed upon. So it follows that, despite all my best intentions, a chicken curry would be made. And I think I figured it out – [...]
