Squid Curry

Bought a squeamish thick squid from the nighttime market as well as I dear squid.

I went through my kitchen to run into what I take and cooked this. I'm non certain what to telephone call it, sense of taste is a scrap like Thai Red Curry, but I didn't position inward coriander rootage, nor did I function whatever kaffir lime rind, but but the leaf. There are no spices in it similar an Indian curry.

I served it amongst white rice as well as raw cucumber slices. Lazy me only cooked 1 dish for dinner.
I didn't notice this to be spicy, as well as my ten-yo girl loved it. If you lot prefer it to live hot, add in more or less plane'sec centre chilli into the spice glue.

I happen to take a bit of torch ginger left afterward baking my Torch Ginger Chiffon Cake, and so I but sprinkled it on. It will live smashing to take about, ok to have none. Doesn't really matter. Kaffir lime leaf as well as torch ginger helps to trim back any fishy smell, simply incase in that location is.

OK, hither'sec the recipe.
