The spice of life...

I had two wonderful takeaway vegetarian Biryanis recently which were phenom!
I won't eat meat dishes as I wonder what and where it came from...
I'm going to try making my own as they don't look too difficult and I have plenty of herbs and spices indoors....Ole

I'm going to try my own recipe though..

Couldn't see that (permission denied), but if you use authentic ingredients, it should turn out lovely.

Oh yes indeed...
I love cooking and use my own spin on recipes...
Chillis are an aphrodisiac!

Some of those look nice, but a little more complicated than I was imagining them to be.

[tomsk]

just getting ideas really...

[Icey]

Good one. I think being able to make a decent curry's a good learning curve. The original ingredients contain nothing horrible in them, so good luck with it.

[tomsk]

thank you,
and the rice is essential too,
Basmarti ......yum
i deal for the Winter days..

[Icey]

I like Basmati rice, but sometimes use Pilau for curries. Up here, a winter staple's a wholesome stew.

nothing much beats a good curry. have you tried a Lakshmi soup? the one punkin makes is delicious, but there many varieties of it.

I don't like eating pumpkin flesh - in any form. The seeds're the best part about them.

[tomsk]

don't eat 'em then !
I like cumin seeds!

[Icey]

Duh. I DON'T eat pumpkins.

[tomsk]

I like pumpkin cake but we only have that at Halloween!

[Icey]

Sounds revolting.

[tomsk]

No,

it's lovely with a cup of tea..
