This looks yummy. Thanks!!


I love Malay food, this looks delicious!! have to give it a try.


What is candlenut and where can I purchase? This recipe does look great!


According to gourmetsleuth.com, raw Brazil or macadamia nuts can be substituted if you can't locate candlenuts.


This dish was pretty easy to make and delicious. I thought it might be too spicy for my kids, but they loved it. I would like to try more Malay food


Sounds like a winner!


Hi

I was just browsing around (I'm new and great site btw) and stumbled on this recipe. I'm an Eurasian and as Daryl has correctly stated Devil Curry is a dish from the (Portuguese (spl?) descended) Eurasian communities of Malaysia and Singapore. So, it isn't a Malay dish, it's a Portuguese-Eurasian dish, originating from Malaysia or Singapore (jury's still out on this one). I'm really proud of my heritage and I had to point that fact out. This is a yummy dish and it goes really well with slices of crusty baguette too. My mum makes this SOOOOOOOO HOT, we call it "Rocket Fuel Curry" Makes our eyes water but we can't get enough!


I am going to copy this, and make it for sure soon! I love curry, and chicken, and spicy! This recipe is right up my alley!
YUMII!!!

michelle


Definitaly gonna try this....yum!


Question... what kind of mustard? Mustard seeds (white or black) or prepared and if prepared, yellow or Dijon? Thanks!


I was wonderin about the mustard too?


Just great - I love Malay food and this is one of my favourites.

Oh and BTW, mustard in asian receipes is generally mustard powder. That's what I use


Wow, this sounds like fun. I would like to try this one of these days.


What is candlenut? This looks so good but I am not sure where to buy it and could I just omit it if I can't find it?


Candlenut is very much like macadamia nuts....so if you can't find candlenut use macadamia. You definitely can't omit it, it is essential to the recipe
