Recipes from the Vegie Curry Woman
On one of these hot weekends, just gone past, we were at a fundraising
for The Greens, and I was thinking to myself that we needed to have
some cooling dishes this summer and that we finally had the time to
do some experimenting. The only cooling thing in the fridge was a watermelon
and I scrounged up some apple. It needed a vegetable as well so... cucumber.
I had some chilli jam in the fridge and I used that as well but in
the end, I mdecided that just adding a whole chilli to the tempering
ingredients would be easier and just as tasty.
So the Vegie Curry Man came home from a hard days work at St Andrews
and he said "I was so hoping that you'd make me something really
nice". So I told him the good news upon which he replied, "But
I wasn't looking for a sweet."
After being duly chastised and told to accept whatever was dished out,
Vegie Curry Man sat down to eat it. By the time he had finished (two
helpings) with a summery dhall that was left over from the day before,
he had decided that it was a must-have and proceeded to try it out the
very next day at the Greens Fundraising Party as a raita.
