Ginger thug 😺 (not that he is - at 7kg in his prime other males tended to retreat!)

She was tiny - about 3kg. But the other cats respected her and she owned the ground she walked on. She'd never start a fight but wouldn't turn one down if someone pushed her.
She was 3 month old ex-feral farm cat when we got her - more work for a wonderful reward.
We still have her brother.

It's what I was told it was called by a very good Indian chef. Any spelling mistake is mine, aided by autocorrect!

Cut in half then thin slices across the halves.

The British army has a hell of a lot more in common with the French and Germans than with the US. That's what 500 years of war does 😺

And Indian food was utterly different - peppercorns for heat, sweeter spices for flavour. And tamarind for the sweet/savoury tomato flavour.
Not a huge fan of excessive chilli but pretty much everything I cook has tomato in it. Thank you, south America. Love me a lycopene!

I've just bought some buckwheat whisky from Brittany - good to support small producers that don't produce enough for the supermarket! Trying some tomorrow (tasting notes look interesting - especially the double distilled one)
Benefit of being old - you can afford the unusual!

All good - stent is still working. Small artery has some obstruction but not enough to need intervention

Added to my recipes for making next week 😁

If I posted my failures my posting history would be a fair bit longer.. Still, as long as it's still vaguely edible, it'll be eaten. If not, we have dogs 😸

PS - I added red pepper to the recipe.

I was going to try it with jackfruit next - got some tinned spiced jackfruit chunks that looks like it'll go.

Sounds good - would it work with spring cabbage too? Got lots of that..

Stir fry in my house is "what's in the fridge/cupboard/veg cupboard that goes together". Sometimes I follow a recipe but even then I usually add stuff not mentioned in the recipe..
