Suvai I have not given any recipe for meat curry powder.
I will post later if you want.

Normally they sell ready made meat curry powder
and fish curry powder in the shop in packets.
Where are you from Suvai?

Or you can use 1 tsp of chillie powder and 2 tsp of coriander powder.
Thanks Kugan98

Dear Dev, normally pachai arisi is used for fried rice.
Not pulungal arisi.

When having guests we can cook in basmati rice.
other wise normal ponni pachai arisi will do.

You have to cook the rice uthir-uthir.
Must be cold rice.

If time permits I will post Chinese style fried rice.
Thanks. Kugan98

Kugan, is there a good substitute for thai fragrant rice to go with thai red curry?...

[kugan98]

Thai jasmine rice is a naturally fragrant rice with a delicate flavour. If you do not have any in your store, basmati rice makes a good substitute.

Thanks Kugan98

Kugan, I made the red curry ... tastes fantastic...just like the curry I used to get at this restaurant called Lemongrass in SG... I used normal lemon leaves for kaffir lime leaves & tulsi for basil... I added an extra lemongrass to the curry as the flavour was not strong enough...I wanted to send u a pic but my curry turned blackish brown(maybe too much soy sauce???)... so no pics this time...sry...

Thanks a lot for the recipe & for all the effort u put in to send some of the ingredients all the way from malaysia to cbe... we all enjoyed the curry with rice(normal ponni rice) for lunch...

The pleasure is all mine. Thanks.
