on the other hand, FOOD GOOD

Visited Laxmi today. Got good stuff: hot curry powder, garam masala powder, tamarind concentrate, very fresh poppy seeds, tea masala, chana dal.

Came home and made a lamb curry with tomato, the garam masala, some tamarind, a glorp of plain yogurt. Put it on brown basmati.

Oh dear GOD that was good.

OH GOD IT WAS SO GOOD.

Wow, that sounds good. Care to share the recipe? Where is Laxmi?

I just kind of faked it. Basically 1 lb of meat, 8 oz tomato sauce, a tomato, about 4 tablespoons of the garam masala powder, and about 1 teaspoon of the tamarind stuff. Laxmi is in Tustin on El Camino Real in the "old town" part of town.
