Good morning all

Hi jvh bet you make some awesome curries. Any tips to share?

hi kez sounds too hot to enjoy your walking too!

Hey Beani great to see you!

Got my yams for Xmas baking in the oven for a dish called bourbon mashed potatoes. Hey ho and just found out I have a family reunion to attend (picnic) Xmas eve. Means I will need to be even more prepared in advance lol!

Kezza thank you for the info regards the avitar.  I kinda got it back just doesn't fit as well - but at least now ya know who it is lol!

Afternoon all  hope its not still as hot up in Townsville for you Kezza

Miss i basically make the curry right from scratch.......i have a curry leaf tree and i have the curry plant as well which i was lucky enough to find at Bunnings......the curry tree and the curry plant 2 seperate plants are wonderful in the curries.......and give a gorgeous aroma when cooking

I always fry the curry and the onions garlic first up so that the aroma is allowed to waft...........also use the coconut cream rather than the milk i know very very rich.

Have been doing some Moroccan food as well.......with the main spice used

Ras El Hanout..............looked everywhere for that and was easier to buy it on ebay and get it that way. You can use that with chicken or lamb......

Geez no wonder im carrying weight.

A very very easy receipe that i use in the summer.

Take one BBQ chook

Some lettuce

Some Macadamia nuts

A chopped fresh mango

Chop up all roughly toss in a bowl and just before serving put a dash of salad dressing.....serve with fresh bread and a light white.

Is a great stand by and always looks attractive

Ooh thanks JVH sounds great. I'm going to try the cooked chook one! I love using coconut cream in curries too. Thanks so much!

Bourbon mashed potatoes (yams) turned out well. Are cooling to room temperature then will properly seal and freeze. Also found a recipe for a vegan curry will leave till the night before for the vegans. Off to walk the pooch while the dishwasher does its job lol!

Mmmmmmmm Bourbon mashed potatoe sounds devine..........wow is that an old family receipe coming from the States?

I love sweet potatoe and stewed apple mashed together with a dob of butter and a little brown sugar.......all this talking about food is making me hungry lol

Hi JVH your recipe sounds very similar. Mine had cloves cinnamon nutmeg and bourbon lol. Brown sugar and unsalted butter. Also heavy cream. Potatoes are baked in lieu of boiling. Yes it is more of a US thanksgiving dish.

About to watch some tv. Lunching tomorrow so need some rest lol!

Oh your Christmas sounds amazing.............i bet you decorate the whole house as well:)

Of course the house is up with the fowls to go to golf here:)

Morning all :-x

 

Up late I was sick last night think I overate than when I finally went to sleep got woken by a hugh thunder storm (weather bureau got it wrong no rain for ages they said) my little dog went nuts with the thunder claps even the cat was scared.  cooled everything down though I could even sleep on my side a feat unacheiveable with the humidity, lol.

Going to a Chrissy party today C will get some prezzies.  than I might atempt going to a shopping centre to evade the heat spent 2 hours at the library yesterday.

also think I drank too much caffenine yesterday as all my nerve endings felt like they were spiking in my body took a Claratyne no good had a cold shower and got C to scratch my back and my nerves settled down.

We got our Child Support early hopefully we get another lot on Friday.

Hope everyone has a great day it will be 32 today so a cool change for the tropics they say the very humid days are gone for now maybe a few days, lol..

Oh wow it sounds hotter than hot up in da North ........hope you have a nice time at the party:)
