This is actually our second curry of the week, but I didn't take a picture of Murali's chicken dry fry on Monday night. We had it with tomato rice, also courtesy of Murali, as his wife brought us a jar of fab tomato pickle which is apparently what single men in Bangalore live on. You stir a couple of spoonsful of this pickle into your rice and supper is prepared. Beats the hell out of a ready meal.
So: pork vindaloo, from Richard Turner's book Hog. Delicious, and much more subtle than you would expect from the amount of garlic in it. Shredded cabbage, stir-fried with mustard seeds, curry leaves, garlic, chilli and ginger. Flatbreads, seasoned with kalonji seeds. Completely delicious.

Curry week AND chocolate week. The answer has to be a chilli chocolate cake - sounds good to me anyway.
if you think curry awareness in britain is bad, you need to visit north carolina in the us of a! i'm so ignorant about curries. :/
Choclette - or a bit of chocolate in the curry like a mole sauce?
Grace - with the pretty big Indian population you'd think the Indian restaurants would be better here but I think most of the best curry is made in the home!
Love curry. It is an incredible spice blend that can be under appreciated. Thanks for sharing.
