Curry is not my favorite thing. For years I avoided making curry. Then Natish and Sari lobbed in and, as they are Indian, I knew there was a curry somewhere on the horizon. It happened. It was great. It was beaut. Read more Turns out, it’s all about the curry powder. Seems no self respecting Indian would buy that ready-made rubbish. She said it took her so long to invite us for curry because she couldn’t get the proper ingredients in Samoa and had to have her sister send her the proper stuff from Fiji. Simple; you want good curry, make your own curry powder. See less
