This recipe hailing from Chef Senthil, whom I’ve had the pleasure of cooking with at the Gourmandise in Santa Monica, is as pleasurable as Indian curry will get. It encourages the usage of entire spices because that is in point of fact appropriate one of the necessary trademark ways of getting an pleasurable sort in Indian dishes. It’s far peaceable ok to make use of ground spice powders as acknowledged in the recipe, however I extremely indicate the use of as many entire spices as that it’s good to perhaps perchance perhaps perhaps mediate of. Vital more straightforward to invent than anticipated and I am hoping you revel in! —Ellie Betzen
