My favorite curry recepie: 1/2 cup (100g or 4 oz) ghee 1 lb (450g) of boned lamb shoulder or leg cut into 1 inch cubes 1 - 2 large onions peeled and sliced 2-4 garlic cloves peeled and sliced 2 teasp corriander powder 1 teasp cumin powder 1/2 teasp freshly ground black pepper 1 green chili, chopped 1/2 teasp chili powder 1 1/2 cups water 1 teasp salt 1 14 oz can coconut milk
Melt the ghee in a heavy pan, add the lamb and fry until browned on all sides. Remove from the pan, drain well and set aside. Add the onio and th egarlic and fry gently untill soft, stir in the remaining ingredients except the water and salt and fry for a further 3 minutes. stirring constantly. Return the lamb to the pan, add the salt and water and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the meat is tender. Cover the pan if a curry with plenty of sauce is preferred; cook uncovered for a dry curry. Add the coconut milk, mixing well and reheat to bubbling. If desired, thicken with a little cornstartch. Serve with rice. I've just started knitting the Rose leaves Tunic on page 86 of "A Gathering of Lace". I just finished Marianne Kinzel's "Rose of England Shawl" in a dark red two-ply handspun (I spin, too). I haven't blocked it yet, but I think it's going to be about 7' across!! Good thing I didn't like her border and didn't do that! As for bobbin lace, it's been on hold, but I still have on a roller pillow the 3" wide Torchon edging I've been doing FOREVER. I've used it for four sets of pillow cases. I think that's nearly ten yards. I leave it on for demos and someday I'll have enough for a set for myself! On another roller I have a sweet little edging the Tamara sent the pricking for - only a foot or so of that one. I also have about three unfinished class pieces. I want to learn some point ground laces. With the nursery, I don't have a lot of time to focus on any one thing for very long. Best to you all, Linda, the string-a-holic in Oregon, where we're actually getting to have some spring!
