Curry poll.

Curry, proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

I love the chickpea vindaloo from a local joint I go to.

I have tried India curry, and it's very good. More familiar with red and green curry from Thailand .

I've enjoyed chicken curry a few times in restaurants over the years. Though I don't see "time warp" on this Curry poll. Pity....but I didn't see Tim in the video either. My bad!

Shoutout to @Metalhead for creating this poll. Allowed me to troubleshoot and fix my computer speakers. Seems the right channel was dropping in volume. Re-connected them and now the Rocky Horror Picture Show sounds just about right, thankyouverymuch!

When I visited Thailand a few years ago, I took cooking lessons and one dish I made was Panang Curry. I was taught to start with the ingredients and use a mortar and pestle to grind the powder. Phew! It was a lot of work.

It was during the trip that I had an extremely fiery curry. A woman and her husband was showing me around. I went to visit since I helped her with logistics on a COVID site for professionals. They made it clear that we were going to eat like natives. They took me to Kanchanaburi and one evening we were at a restaurant overlooking the River Kwai (with a view of the bridge) and they ordered wild boar in red curry for us. I've never tried a ghost pepper, but that curry was painful and at my limit. That hot and it seems to overrun the other flavors, but it was delicious.

When I was a kid my mother always used to put a few sultanas in the curry (English curry) but that's disgusting, it's like having pineapple on a pizza. I like a flavourful curry, it doesn't have to be overly hot, just tasty. Something that makes you break out in a sweat after 3 bites but doesn't burn out the taste buds. A slow burner, not a ring burner.

Is curry always hot? I don't much care for foods that make my tongue sting.
What's wrong with pineapple being on a pizza?

Yes and no, depending on the curry. Even found a "heat index" for Indian curry, though personally I've never had any curry that I thought was hot. I've never understood the point of any making food so hot that it's painful.

Is curry always hot?

You can make it as hot or as mild as you like.

Mustard by itself is also not hot, but add the tiniest bit of black pepper to it and it becomes extremely hot, it accentuates pepper flavours.

My mom always put a spoon of mango chutney in her curry dish, says it adds to the complexity.

Speaking from before my stomach problems started:

I’m a vegan and Indian curries are my favorite. I definitely like spicy food (although I’ve heard that real authentic spicy Indian food is sort of extreme), and medium and milder curries can be good, too, if they’re at least flavorful. I’d be willing to try different kinds of curries.

Goulash, I think was originally using curry as in old days it was main spice available to gaulish tribes. But notable is difference between goulash and lamb masala!
Oddly, mince samoosas are western influence unless made with lamb mince since cow is sacred in India. Mostly today the samoosas at Indian shops use soya alternative (which I can't handle soya)

Vegetable samoosas!!
I mix lentils and mung beans for my goulash (dish was to compensate for high price of meat during the world war, but somehow translated to influence of vegetarians coming from Europe) mostly known as those influenced by the North Indian style of vegetarian cooking which TT O'Day now places Thai veg dishes on menu!

Reminds me before my veg days of dip for chicken nuggets. Honey-mustard
It's interesting version of sweet-chilli

Paneer with any type of curry

 

[SusanLR]

Lamb curry homemade.
Also, most Indian foods use curry, and I like the Thai as long as it isn't extremely hot.
Green curry chicken is good also.

 

[AmberOpalite]

Katsu curry with sushi rice with extra veggies. I don't do well with spicy so I try to avoid it.

 

[Kisa the tea]

Chinese curry is great. It's got the perfect texture and it's so spicy.
Japanese curry is nice too. It's more on the sweet side than spicy side
And Indian lemon curry is really good too.

No matter the type of curry though, my go to meal with it is rice, chips or wedges and hardboiled eggs.

 

[Toirtis]

Loves me a good vindaloo, korma, pasand, etc....I could eat it at least twice weekly (gotta leave some meals for other food types I love).

Curry with Paneer

 

[Captain Jigglypuff]

I like curry. I just don’t know how to make it. For the longest time, I never knew what the dish my grandma would occasionally make that had potatoes, chicken, onions, and carrots in a mildly spice sauce was until I was an adult. I remember that I liked it and would enjoy eating it whenever she made it. I have also tried some Indian curry from a restaurant before. In my area, we don’t have any Indian restaurants despite having several people from India, so I don’t get to enjoy curry that often. I don’t mind a little bit of spice in curry as I do like a little spicy kick in food but not too spicy that my mouth feels like it’s on fire.

One thing I might add is that along with Indian curries like chana masala (chickpea curry), baingan bharta (eggplant curry), and bhindi masala (okra curry), I like breads; like naan, chapati, and especially poori. Another favorite is aloo paratha, bread stuffed with potatoes.

But these days this is usually how I feel if I have curry. (It doesn't make me have to go to the restroom, but it does give me heartburn.)
