Well, as I was telling @landsharkkidd it only takes me like 4 hours to cook two dishes, but I present a shitty photograph of tonight's dinner.
dins
Dal with watercress, a make-it-up-as-you-go-along prawn curry (frozen prawns) with snake beans and discount tomatoes, and white basmati rice cooked in the rice cooker with a couple cloves and a pod of cardamom. Top tip doing the latter will make your rice smell NEXT LEVEL delicious.I haven't made curry in a while so the dal was a bit too watery, and the prawn curry is spicier than I thought because I just chucked in random bits of unidentified curry powder(s) from the bottom of empty jars to tidy up the spice cupboard a bit. And I'm never using Coles brand coconut milk again. But otherwise, delicious and satisfying!
Now to actually eat it.
Wow.
That looks so impressive. Puts me to shame.
Aw it's not a competition. I've had more energy this weekend but most days I couldn't even rustle up what you could. Mind you this is like 5 meals worth of curry, I ended up putting some in the freezer. Might as well make it worth the effort
Hehe it’s ok. I was just impressed by it.
I’ve tried my hand in making curries as well and it does sometimes take a bit of time to do.
I hope you’ll keep posting pictures of your meals.
That dinner will also be assimilated. Looks great.
dayum 💜 💜 😍
Looks amazinggggg ❤️ whatever you do, don't use Aldi's coconut milk either. Couldn't even eat the curry I made with that and I eat everything 🤮
Uggggh yes I found that one out the hard way. I nearly threw up. Tbh I almost never use coconut milk anyway - of any brand - because there seems to be more weird shit in it than coconut cream.
Anyway, Ayam brand 4 lyf - you could eat it outta the can
