Just a little background on this. Mr G is chin-dian as they say. No, this is not a racist joke. What I really mean is, he is half Chinese and half Indian. However, he grew up eating curries and really love them a lot. For me, I can't have similar kinds of food everyday so I have to do a variety of various foods.
Mr G has been asking me to make curry which I had tried to avoid for sometime. I made this a few weeks back when the weather is less hot. According to Mr G, this is really yummy. So yummy that he just keeps eating and slurping the curry. This is definitely best for a plate of piping hot rice.
Ingredients:
6-7 small squids or 3-4 big squids, cleaned
1 tomato cut into quarters
1 packet coconut milk or equivalent fresh milk
3-4 hard boiled eggs
4 tbsp fish curry powder
2 tbsp chilli powder (for chilli lovers)
1/4 fenugreek seeds
1/4 cumin seeds
1/4 mustard seeds
1/4 fennel seeds
1-2 sprigs curry leaves
2 cups water
2 tbsp cooking oil
1-2 big red onions, sliced thinly
Method:
This is one of the quickest curries to attempt if you are often put off by curry recipes with a whole list of the spices etc. Do try it and tell me if you like it too.
