Vegetarian curry I never expected this to be so yummy. Thanks Nigella for the tip. Exploring different cultures watching travel documentaries and learning new recipes is my thing right now. This is so easy to make and doesn’t take long. Firstly for 4 portions, I chopped 1/2 butternut squash and 2 sweet potatoes and baked them until they were tender, it didn’t have to be completely soft. (20-30min @180c) I would say al dente because it was going to be cooked later in sauce until softened. In the meantime I prepared the curry sauce where I put 2 garlic cloves, 1 red onion or you can also use a pink shallot, turmeric (if you don't have fresh , use powder 1 tbs), 3cm long piece of ginger, a bunch of fresh coriander, and 3 small chillis. I blended all these ingredients. Then I cooked the paste in the pan, I added 1 can of coconut milk, which gave it a very smooth texture. Also a little bit of water, salt and pepper, 2 tbs of red chilli paste, 2 tbs of tamarind ...

I can’t wait to make a trip further than 5 miles from my house. Once we will be able to travel, I will go for a trip down to Brighton. And I don’t know about you, but the first thing I’ll do when everything re-opens, is to book a table in a restaurant or pub, even the nearest pub will do. They will all have to be pre-booked in advance because there will be high demand. I giggled when Boris announced earlier this month that pubs (and restaurants ) can re-open in April, but only if they won’t serve alcohol. I was thinking about people that used to go to the pub just for a pint, what will they do?? Stare at each other π ? Before the complete lockdown in December started, the government had implemented various tiers of restrictions; one of them was that pubs can only serve alcohol with a meal - guidance included saying that a Scotch Egg constitutes a meal! ’Scotch Eggs quickly became the best sellers in many pubs. No surprise there π! It seems like this will be our new n...
