gratuitous lunch post
Oct. 13th, 2012 03:51 pmLamb stewed with coconut, star anise and curry leaves
Chickpeas simmered in darjeeling tea and ginger
Green beans and yellow cherry tomatoes with mustard seeds
Basmati rice
Yum factor: 10,0000
Amount of time and labor that went into these seemingly simple dishes: LOTS. Although that will be compensated for by the considerable quantity of delicious leftovers.
Recipes for the lamb and chickpeas can be found in Raghavan Iyer's 660 Curries, a book I will eventually have to return to the library and then buy a copy of it for myself.
