Anything Curry

Through a process of trial and error, I have found out that you can actually make a curry out of anything as long as you add the following ingredients into a frying pan with the other things you might want to put into a curry, such as potatoes, or even when you are desperate, pasta will do. Curry Pasta? Curry Toast? Curry Onions? Curry Carrots? Curry... Broccoli?

This makes a sort of actually indian tasting curry if you must know. Not a nonya curry, not a japanese curry, not some english "curry", but a rather distinctively indian curry like the stuff you might get in the prata shops.


ANYTHING CAN BE MADE INTO CURRY

Ingredients (for Anything Curry base)
Onion
Garlic
Tumeric
Cumin
Coriander
Paprika

  1. Cut up the onion and garlic into very tiny bits.
  2. In some cooking oil, fry garlic first, followed by onions. Finally, add all four spices in more or less equal quantities and mix it in to make some sort of paste. Now you feel like a real cook dontcha? Who needs curry powder, mysterious curry powder which you have no idea what its made of? Anyway so you fry the spices a while so they will be tastier.
  3. Finally after the spices are prepared, just put in whatever else you meant to put into the Anything curry.
