Goan Xacuti with Coconut Rice
Xacuti (pronounced sha-koo-tee) is a dish from the Indian state of Goa, historically eaten to rid the paddy field workers of colds during the wet monsoon season, as the spices in the curry were believed to have medicinal properties. The mix of roasted spices and vinegar in the sauce is specific to Goan cuisine - a legacy of Portuguese settlers - and those rich, tangy flavours are delicious combined with the mild, sweet coconut rice on the side.

This recipe was typical of The Spicery - straight forward and delicious. It was certainly spicey and deserving of the 3 chilli indicator. Once again I followed the instructions to the letter and the flavours all came together perfectly.
Goan X was delicious. Perfect balance or richness with tang of vinegar. The Coconut rice was excellent - very authentic coconut rice with added something. Just wish I knew all the spices. Will be ordering it again. P.S. I never normally review food but it is certainly worth it !
