This recipe comes straight out of the book Apocalypse Chow which I recently received as a gift after having it out for 9 weeks from the library. At a certain point, the library cuts the cord on my library book renewals and I have to face the facts. Now someone else at the library can enjoy it because I have my own copy!
The theory behind the book is that you can eat well even when the power goes out. My thoughts: if the recipes are easy enough that someone without power can pull them off, I should be able to make something edible in a fully powered kitchen. These are the types of books I get my best ideas from... well, these and cookbooks for kids.
I switched in some fresh vegetables in this recipe since the power is on and I have the ability to do that.
First I boiled up some yukon gold potatoes.
And since Zoey wasn't in the kitchen with me tonight I brought the kitchen to her so she could do the Zoey sniff test. Luckily this can was still sealed.
I mixed all the vegetables together with some curry powder and simmered it for about 10 minutes. The whole house smelled so good that I even opened the windows so that the neighbors could enjoy the smell of a good curry.
I served it over some brown rice and barley (which I am finally getting better at cooking even without the rice cooker of my dreams).
This recipe made a quick delicious curry and I am eager to try something else out from this book later on this week.

mmmmmm. This dish was soooo good. :) I highly recommend it.
Love the name, and the idea of cooking with curry. I can almost smell it now...
I cannot take credit for the name of the dish since it is straight out of the cookbook, but I liked it too :)
