Oriental Cook Book (Kitchen Library)
By Lorna Turpin
Hamlyn - 1994
Curried Crab : page 77
This turned out pretty good, but the recipe is a mess.
- The picture shows a reddish curry; instead it was yellowish (turmeric, nothing red involved).
- Whole spices are added (fenugreek seeds and peppercorns) with ground ones. They should have been ground.
- The recipe wants you to make coconut milk from scratch.
- The total liquid (coconut milk, yogurt, milk-milk) would give you soup rather than a curry. I cut all this back and still have some mixed yogurt-milk to use in the next days.
Not sure this cookbook is going to be a keeper. (It was a gift.)
(The page number is not a page number, but a recipe number.)
