Welcome to my blog! I document my culinary adventures here.

White poppy seeds, or posto, as they call it in my hometown, is usually prepared with potatoes and ridge gourd and its flavor is kept intact in preparations by staying away from additional spices. I used up the zucchini at hand and wasn’t disappointed. I might be also guilty of adding a tad bit of spice to my version, because I like it that way!
I believe that a good spicy Thai yellow curry possesses the fix to all troubles. I am in love with the Surendra's curry at Wagamama, a Japanese fast food restaurant with amazing South Asian recipes, from Ramens to Curries. This recipe got me a few inches closer to the Surendra's curry and took me only 20 minutes to stir together.
After coming to the Netherlands, jackfruit was not something that I frequently encountered in grocery stores, maybe once or twice I sighted something like-it in Asian supermarkets and very quickly I came to the realisation that it was a similar looking cousin durian and not really the jackfruit that I knew, oops! It was not too long ago that I came across a tin of preserved jackfruit in the Asian supermarket and I was quite curious to try my luck with that. The advantage of buying a tinned jackfruit in brine is largely that I don't have to to go through all the hassle of chopping and cleaning one, but nothing can really substitute the flavour of a fresh homegrown jackfruit. I think until I figure out where exactly jackfruit is sold fresh out here, and master the craft of chopping it up, the tins are going to be my buddies!
