boyfriday Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Vesta curries always used to have raisins or sultanas in them, I'm not sure authentic Indian dishes do. For years I thought Nirmal Gupta's claim to cook authentic Asian food was false as her curries didn't have sultanas in them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loubbe Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 School curry used to have raisins, or similar in them. I've had one at Dil Shad with lychees in it. No idea what it was called, but delicious nontheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wotsits Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 I agree, I quite often used to slice a banana into my chicken curries, just provides a touch of sweetness to counteract the spice. Ahhhh Just thought of something sweet that I actually like in a curry. Coconut. I love curry when it has this in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert_Baehr Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I make a pork and apricot curry. It's delicious. You've got to use Halal Pork, though. Raisins in curries. Wrong. I think raisins in curry can be pretty good - if you can get the right kind. Those Cannabis Raisins are pretty tasty, but they're getting hard to find. Ahhhh Just thought of something sweet that I actually like in a curry. Coconut. I love curry when it has this in it. Maybe, but I find I can't eat very much at a sitting. The problem with coconuts in curry is that if you get one or two on your plate, there's no room for anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esme Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I find fruit in curries is completely offputting to the extent that I'd rather go hungry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dosxuk Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Fruit in hot food is wrong on so many levels. I agree! Especially apple sauce with roast pork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
