fancying trying curry.

well,
just an idea for adding a little spice to my weekend.

and boat,
it's the only kind of spicing up i'm likely to fancy,
or get.
okay?

have bought a tub of asda "mild curry powder".
we shall see.

Chopped onion garlic ginger 3 or 4 hot chillis turmeric, corriander cumin tin of chopped tomatoes, chopped okra, nice dolop of madras curry paste add meat lamb, chicken simmer long and slow till tender and stir in a few shakes of garam masala once off the heat before serving... you can cool it down if too hot wirh coconut paste and natural yogurt. Serve with Basmati rice , chapatis, and popadoms, im not a fan of naan bread myself too heavy going.

bugger all that boat.
i'll just put some curry-powder in my hotpot at the weekend.

Eric, Sainsbury's do a Basics jar for I think 9p, yes, 9p, that can go three ways for you.
(i) You can try it, find it a bit bland, bump it up with something else a bit stronger and job's a good 'un
(ii) You can try it, not like it and you've lost 9p
(iii) You can try it and like it. You have a lengthy supply subsequently for under a pound

Handy for kids (and mums who don't really care for it and dads who have to be careful with spices...) who like the idea of curry but don't want/can't tolerate even the mildest burning and you can throw it together in as long it takes to chop up a chicken breast or two.

The jar alone is worth more than 9p

i threw some in a small dish of baked beans,
and it was okay.

i shall be putting it in my weekend slop.

go for it eric , i belive chillis are supposed to release endorphins , i love hot curry , i can make my own from scratch but it never tastes like the curry house its good though

well,
i think it is said that there are health benefits from eating curry.
but i'm not really a curry eater,
and what i've got is asda medium curry,
it seems okay.

could certainly do with those endorphins.
apparently.

we'll see.

iv never used curry powder , let me know how you get on , , what sort of curry are you making , have you had take away curry eric

mj,
all i'm doing is throwing a few spoons full into a big casserole that i do every saturday.
it's nothing special.
i fill a pot with an assortment of vegetables,
and that does me for the weekend.

the baked bean thing was just to find out if i actually LIKE the stuff.

no,
i've never had curry takeaway.

always had chinese.

dont you fancy a change eric

not really mj.

borin old tawt eh.

nah,
i just amble along in my own little world.
so predictable.
my food,
pack-up for work.
bus times.
cooking saturday morning,
the rest of the weekend in the bunker.

i don't have the capacity to fancy anything really..

this curry thing is merely a variation on a theme.

you fancied bus stop girl

yeah right.

and what would i have done?

it was all in my head mj.

and now i'm pushin 60.

waht you at today eric , any plays?

i dare say i shall find a few footie bets somewhere.

other than that,
just sit here,
consume 2 ltrs of cheapo 4.2% hawksridge,
and wait for bedtime.


you?

picking popos eric ..we need Tony back for the footy season

you reckon?

i make my own choices.

good for you eric ,, im gonna do some weeding in a bit

depends how you look at it.
i'm still working nights.

good luck with the weeding.

ha , one day your ship will come in eric

mj,
i wouldn't see it if it pissed on my boots and spat in my eye.
i'm too busy being a loser.

i reckon that "my boat",
if there ever WAS one,
came and went a long time ago.

things still the same eric

mj,
it's my life-story.
it's been this way for 40 yrs.

i was born a wimp.
and although i might have been dealt a fairly decent hand..............

you see those tipsters advertising,
asking "do you dare to be a winner?"
well,i didn't.

what am i saying?
you people know all this.

and i bet if i had the opportunity to change it all,
tomorra,

y'know what?

mj,
if my wife had half a brain,
she'd have dumped me before we married.

only,
she was as desperate as i was.
