Thai red curry fried rice

Our guest blogger today is “The Mistress of Spices” …

Contrary to popular belief, Thai or Thai-influenced dishes aren’t particularly complicated to make. Fried rice, for example, is one such dish. All it takes is some cooked rice in your fridge, leftovers from the day before.

Mughlai Paratha

News has reached us here in Curry Culture HQ of a new fast-food chain in Dubai with a rather different take on curry accompaniments. Curry and Toast serve all sorts of curry with, you’ve guessed it, toast – it sounds like a student’s culinary heaven.

Of course, it’s definitely not a traditional side dish and you’re unlikely to find it in any restaurant this side of the United Arab Emirates.

Aloo Gobhi (Gobi)

A delicious vegetarian dish consisting of potatoes (aloo) and cauliflower (gobhi).

Very popular across India and Pakistan with many different variations as additional vegetables are added to give it a different twist. The end product has a yellow tinge from the turmeric in the recipe.

Commonly served as a side dish, you can add peas kale or cabbage to vary the taste.
