Hi All,

I made the curry posted as Madras curry last week. Using Lamb as a good
Kiwi should. Couple of points as I need to make small portions living
alone.
I mixed double the amounts of spices dry using my own dried Hab,
Serrano,Jalapeno mixture. I put this in a jar and mix to a paste as
needed with white vinegar. 
The vinegar give a bit of the Vindaloo flavour and lots of Hab powder
makes it very Vindaloo hot.

When I have got it all cooking in the saucepan. I add a bell pepper and
some tomatoes (skinned).
Because it is very difficult to simmer a small quantity. I put all into
a glass casserole and pop it in the microwave on the lowest setting for
40 minutes stirring every 10 minutes.

When using frozen Habs, for what seems to be the universally popular
Macaroni Cheese. I find it easier to pop them in the food processor
still frozen to chop up rather than let them thaw. 

I am awaiting my first Red Savinas to ripen in the next few weeks.

Margaret Lauterbach ? (spelling) lost address. Your ornamental chilies
Sirichi Thai and Black Namagualand have grown into wonderful plants
purple fruit which I expect will turn red.
