Curry...!!

Salmon Thai red curry with roasted peanuts

Silly question, but when a recipe calls for “three star anise” does it mean three ‘stars’ of it, or just three of the individual ‘points’ of a star??

 

[The-Engineer-That-Brews]

Meh - used 3 ‘stars’ of it: tastes fine :-)

 

[Sadfield]

I always assume the whole star.

Also 1 tbsp of fenugreek seeds = 1 week of every soft furnishing in the house smelling of curry.

And 1 tbsp of turmeric means your hands looking like this after washing three times

But ... DAMN, it's worth it

Yes, 3 "stars"

Tried this one last weekend, a chef I hadn't seen before: one of the best so far, didn't put quite as much sugar in as he does and used my own regular curry gravy rather than his, came out great!

After Latif's Inspired and Misty Ricardo, I now seem to be working my way through Al's Kitchen curries.The Ceylon was the best one yet, I didn't have the Coconut Milk Powder but it didn't seem to make any difference as there's Coconut Milk in there, added a few onions early on too. Probably the best balanced curry I've made, in terms of heat and sweetness.

We bought a new fancy pressure cooker.
Lamb shank massaman.
The meat is just falling off the bone

How well do chillies freeze?

How well do chillies freeze?

For flavour very well, but texture wise they get quiet mushy.

But if they're going in a curry, that normally doesn't matter. They also thaw out in about 5s under a hot tap.

I pick mine and put them in a takeaway tub then put them straight in the freezer. Great in curry and on pizza.

I put mine in a zip lock bag, close 90%, suck out air with straw and seal. It's not vacuum but it's not nothing and saves room.

Can I just add to that - we always freeze ours and use them for chilli snow, ie grate them frozen over stuff for flavour. Works well.
