Today’s lockdown boredom avoidance task. Done and yum!
I also made a few sides whilst cooking. Clockwise from the left they are …. Kachumber, a perennial favourite, brinjal pickle , a first and very tasty too, and last is cucumber and mint raita from memory but not hard to guess the ingredients…. All 3 complimented the balti and the veg curry!!
Here at the Spicery we think contrast and variety in a meal is key, and it looks like you nailed it here! Fresh, crunchy kachumber, tangy brinjal pickle, and creamy, cooling raita - all to compliment that rich balti! The perfect Curry Legend feast - well done!
My first few hours of fun with Curry Legend Veggie Table
Yum! Looks like a Legendary inaugural Veggie Table feast, happy spicing!
