Don't forget to let me know what you did when you've done it.

Hi Intel,
My OH makes this. Although it's not a curry, it's an original Yemenite recipe for a hot pepper paste which can be added to any food, and is especially great with hotpot style cooking. So you won't actually need a curry recipe. Beware, though ... it blows steam out of your ears!
Ingredients:
50g dry tiny red hot chillies
3 medium sized heads of garlic
1 bunch fresh coriander
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon coriander seed powder
1 tablespoon black pepper powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon cardamon powder
1 teaspoon clove powder
2 tablespoons olive oil (optional)
1 tablespoon methi seed powder (optional)
Preparation:
Peel the garlic and blend roughly until all are crushed. Add the chillies and blend for about a minute. Thoroughly wash the fresh coriander and cut as small as possible. Add this and the rest of the ingredients to the blender and blend for 15 minutes. Allow blender to rest for about a quarter of an hour and then blend for a further 15 minutes.
Hope you both feel better soon.

I think I will try this with a little Ofra Haza playing in the background
Thank You0 -
Check the websites listed at the bottom of the Cleaning section of the MEGA index - I'm pretty sure there's a good one for curries that's been added not too long back.

There's a website called Mamta's Kitchen which is really authentic.
(Sorry, I haven't sussed out how to do links yet).
Mamta's Kitchen is full of recipes, you can do a recipe search, etc etc.
I've done their Lamb Passanda recipe twice now, and it's gone down brilliantly!0
