Indian Wedding Curry
The definition of curry is that it is spicy, but it can have so many variations depending on the level of spiciness you like, whether you like salty or oily Yet it is still always curry. This will result in the taste being different too. The process of curry is made differently in many parts of the world, and so are the ingredients used.Curry can be made of vegetables, chicken, prawns, fish, lamb, meat, beef, lentils and many other products. The menu is almost the same every day. They still cook curry in large pots, and eat lots of homemade chapati (wheat flour bread). That situation has changed for me now, but there are large volumes of families still living in that situation today.
There was only one pair of hands working in our family - only one breadwinner - and a lot of hands eating the meal as it was such a large family. You could say that our curry was more like a soup curry, and that the mountain of gravy in the pot was no more than two pieces of chicken or lamb meat for each person, because our curry was made with a lot of water and potato since these were dry days and the income of our household was not enough to give one BBQ in a whole year. Curry was made in a large pot. We were a sibling of six,and our main meal was curry every day. But curry was born before me.
In the year 1960 I was born in India.
