I can definitely get fresh ingredients, especially the okra. My father has planted two 50' rows of okra in a late garden, which will be coming in soon. Thanks in advance for the recipe!

I am jealous of your handy okra.

Or, perhaps, I am jealous of you for your handy okra.

Or, perhaps, I an envious. Either way I'm sure it's better than the frozen okra I had the other night (not that that was awful).

Umm, so, Tom... anytime you're ready with that recipe, dude. Thanks.

I'm about to order Madhur Jaffrey's book because "Tom Arnold" upthread was a complete waste of internets. Also, because Amazon's listing let me look at the index and it looks like what I'm looking for.

I found Food-India.com this morning, looking up a recipe for kima mutter (ground lamb with peas).

Thanks, Jaq, I just found several must-try recipes there.

hm, their palak paneer recipe says cottage cheese is an equivalent for paneer, which seems quite wrong.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 10 October 2005 23:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Dry large curd cottage cheese would be close if you wrap it in cheesecloth and press it for a few hours, but not the creamed. I made paneer once this summer and it came out not quite right. The temperature of the milk has to be very exact when you add the lemon juice, and I was just boiling it up. It tasted fine, but the texture was too crumbly - very cottage cheese like. A coworker of mine keeps volunteering his wife to teach me to make it, but she keeps demurring :).

A vegan coworker (he's a Jain) recommended using firm tofu instead of paneer, which sounds like a good substitute. I haven't tried it yet.

hah, a coworker of mine keeps offering his wife up too.

six years pass...

has anyone ever successfully made vietnamese-style curry & have a link to a good recipe? i have tons of madras curry powder, which seems to be what all the recipes call for, and i have tofu and coconut milk and fish sauce. i think i'm just going to combine all the "easy" recipes on the internet and guess what to do. i don't have any lemongrass though, or basil.

oh, i thought i was posting on a general curry thread. i'm sorry to mislead anyone. i am not interested in red curry.

― tunnel joe (harbl), Monday, 16 January 2012 21:18 (twelve years ago) link

one year passes...

For the record, I have totally given up on caring about making red Thai curries.
