take a tip?

Too hot?  Tempted for take-out again? Michigan’s Gretch shut down everything 5 years ago and we’re still adjusting..  So much no touch you couldn’t tell what’s touch into what.  Keep Mr. Corona away!  With it, the cornocopua of take-out offers variety that maybe ol’ home cookin’ doesn’t.  That same March was when ordered begain to change starting from March—May 2020, in the early months of the pandemic, spending on delivery through third-party apps started to become more popular for both full- and quick-service restaurants. At quick-service restaurants, third-party delivery spending in the United States tripled from about $0.4 billion in the December 2019–February 2020 period to about $1.4 billion 3 years later (October–December 2022).. Although total spending through apps has declined since peaking in early 2021, it remained higher through the end of 2022 than before the pandemic, with the increase more pronounced for quick-service restaurants than for those offering full service (Z).

Do I need to be worried about ordering takeout during COVID-19?. Kerry breed.  Today 12/10/20. https:.today.com/food/do-i-need-be-worried-about-ordering-takeout-during-covid-t203507

Habits to obtain this slate of food were hard to break.  Homemakers tried to duplicate these and other treats, but home cooking expenditures flattened to pre-COVID levels by October 2024.  Families blessed with a library of cookbooks can tip back to treats of their youth.  Then there’s that usage to make the same treat you’ve been ordering.  Why not have as much curry as you want?  For us, that treat’s an easy one: right from the Jamaican Jerk Pit comes a curried meat and beans dish 

That used to be a curried goat dish, but no more than meat.

While making curried Korean lamb slabs as a trial, which came out well, we decided that much more fish might be available and stretched out to this new recipe.  So, we stuffed in a bunch of tilapia, a lovely bland fish that marries with the curry and vegetables.  I’m sure goat will work if I can get my hands of it.

“Curry” is a big deal in this recipe.  The name comes from ‘cairn” by which Brits whipped up a collection of spices like they and already know.  Sukhi.  What is your comprehensive curry guide.  https://sukhis.com/full-curry-guide.

Here is my recipe (next page).

Getting ready for this recipe caught up with a shirt that could save Clorox and other items to get it straight.  My own pants got so much turmeric, they required special treatment.  But all is clean.  

The counter takes its toll.   No goat there (that’s for another day).  Ya go through a lot of Curry Powder.  A little hot powder helps, so from Mexico we dig out some some Chimisa  curry powder III toast gently (frying pan or 200 X 300)¼ C turmeric3T coriander2 T cominos1 T white peppercorns1 T whole clove2 T ginger1 T cardamom2 t cayenne1 T mace1 T fines herbes1 T fenegreek seed grind in spice grinderstore in airtight container.  will last indefinitely

Once you’ve got the spice, then there’s the rest

After that, the recipe is straight forward and even.   No restriction on eating some of the curried fish.
