Indian Food
Last night I cooked Indian food. We had Maharashtrian-style Prawns (this is the exact recipe; shame on her for publishing a copyrighted recipe) and Cucumber-Peanut Koshambir (this recipe is similar). I wanted to use up the other half pound of crab meat left over from Thursday's crab cakes, so I made the prawn curry with half crab meat and half shrimp. Both recipes are from Madhur Jaffrey's excellent book (all her books are excellent) A Taste of India, now out of print. We ordinarily have bread with Indian food, but last night I made rice with butter and onions, from another Madhur Jaffrey book, Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cooking, now available in a revised edition - mine is quite old and was given to me by a dear departed friend.
And with it being Friday, we had beer. I had Dominion Summer Wheat and DH had Dominion Pale Ale.
