An Indian lady offered me some of her home-made Curry paste. She said that ‘It’s the real thing’ and had no reason not to believe her. Well, it was far more realistic than anything else I ever tried and I will try in the future to create a recipe out of it. Instead of a traditional rice side dish serve instead with Bulgur (press Link for recipe) and with some Greek yogurt.
