Curry Eaten in a Hurry

Last night, I made beef curry. The recipe suggested that I add water to the curry paste, but because I thought that was weird, I substituted with milk and it was delicious! However, I think next time, I will use some coconut milk and a hint of lemon/lime (as Jeff recommended).

To compliment the curry, I made naan from scratch. This was easy but took some time (40 minutes for the dough to rise) and muscle (lots of energy to flatten the dough to 1/8in thick ovals with a glass cup haha!). It tasted as good as it looks:

Because we both didn't have much for lunch, we ate all of this very quickly. Needless to say, Indian dinner night was a success!

We are off to San Francisco tonight and have plans to have dinner with friends over the next few nights which means I will take a break from cooking. However, I excitedly went to the Chinese supermarket (called "99 Ranch" and is the sister company to Canada's T&T) this morning because we have a car. The menu for next week is Asian-themed! Stay tuned for dumplings, gỏi cuốn and bánh cuốn.
