Home-cooked Indian-style dinner
A few weeks ago, I came home from work to the most delicious smells in the kitchen – Jac had cooked us an Indian-style dinner. I’ve said “Indian-style” as Jac made no claims to its authenticity, having had help from jars! It was great, though! She made a chicken curry and a vegetable curry, and […]
Three curries in a row
Without planning to, I had curry three days in a row! The night before Jac made a Thai green curry with fish, eggplant, zucchini and peas. She didn’t cook the fish in the curry; she panfried a couple of fish fillets, placed the fish on top of the rice, and spooned the curry over the […]

Jac’s birthday lunch 2008
It was Jac’s birthday on the 13th of January, and we had an Indian-themed* lunch with her family to celebrate. Jac’s brother B and his partner and kids have returned from a year on the road, travelling around Australia in a caravan, and so Jac wasn’t the only one to get presents, as we also […]
Indian and Italian takeaway dinners
As we were leaving on Friday night (21/12/2007) we couldn’t be bothered cooking and creating piles of dishes to wash, so we had a couple of takeaway meals during the week. Dinner Wednesday night, from Maya Masala. Clockwise from the top – naan, lamb and spinach curry, vegetable curry, butter chicken. The lamb was very […]
