Dal has always been a favourite of mine... kinda makes me feel like I've eaten my veges since lentils kinda fall in the same category I'll have to throw the spinach in there and see if I like it.

Okra Winfrey.



For some reason, okra is one of the only foods that I CANNOT eat....Too slimy in the middle. Yuck.

Agreed, I remember Gordon Ramsey choosing okra for the Room 101 show...what a tragedy. On a side note, I tried fried okra in an Indian restaurant once...I won't be doing that again.

Re: Curry Recipes

I've never heard of Bhindi being referred to as "gooey". Heck I've eaten raw okra and not for once did I feel it was "gooey". Unless you're getting a bad stock or adding just too much water to the recipe, Bhindi won't go gooey.

Now egg plant on the other hand (or as they call it in my language.... Baingan), that shit will gooeify your poop it's soo gooey.

Re: Curry Recipes

100 miles south from bombay - city called Poona (by the brits) and Pune (by the rest of the country). I still call it Poona cause I hate the local pronunciation of it.
