Curry recipies

 I threw a little get-together for some friends who were celebrating a thing. One of said friends is celiac so I was like, EEP! I know nothing about cooking gluten-free. But it turns out that curry is basically always gluten-free unless you do something weird to it, so I made two different types of curry and they both were amazing so I'm posting about it a) to share, so that you can make it too, and b) so that I remember once I run out of the massive fuck-ton of curry that is currently in my fridge.*

Vegetable Phall: I basically followed the instructions with a few changes:

• Vegetable oil instead of ghee.
• Patak's Vindaloo paste instead of curry powder.
• I'm fully incapable of measuring grams, so I just guestimated.
• Fenugreek powder instead of seeds, because I couldn't find seeds.
• Most importantly, I added a ghost pepper because the whole point of phall is to burn your insides out. I'd have added two if I were just cooking for myself.

8-Minute Pantry Dal: With the following notes:

• This does not take 8 minutes, fuck right off. It even says in the instructions that it takes half an hour. 
• Patak's instead of curry powder.
• Garlic paste instead of powder, and much more than was suggested.
• I didn't see any turmeric, ginger, or garam masala in the recipe, so I added some.

Anyway they both turned out so well. It's 1 am and I'm not even hungry but it's taking all the restraint I have not to just eat more of it.


* Typically, I would anticipate food at a party that starts at 7. But this was a teacher party, and I forgot that dinner for teachers is like 5 or 6. So a lot of people had eaten already.
