Can anyone point me to recipes for restaurant style Malaysian curries - you know, the sweet, coconutty types that get random fruit put in them, the kind that your Malaysian granny would disown you for making?

Thanks!

There's a couple of suggestions in this thread, although they're based on the idea that a Malay / Kashmir are all basically a korma but with different fruits.

Try cook4one's recipe, perhaps, and come back with some photos and a rating  :-)

thanks!

turned leftovers into turkorma and Madras. Also pie, but pie is off topic for *this* forum 

Hi Bham curry,your  wheat allergy sounds about unbearable as Celiacs,you have to be so careful, don't you ?
We're still waiting from the hospital dietician for what he can eat to bulk him up Geoff

my consolation is that I can still drink beer, albeit nothing made with wheat or rye! I was already cooking most of our food from scratch, the allergy just reinforced that and removed a couple of props from my food stash (no more busting open a packet of pasta for a lazy dinner )

Ho Geoff, I don't have Ceoliac but I am allergic to wheat. I have to read every label - spices and spice blends are often cut with flour as an anti caking / bulking agent.

The easiest takeaway (sorry) from my experiences is to read all labels, and to equip yourself with the names of things derived from gluten containing grains.

There's also the issue of "cross reactions" to things which do not contain gluten, but still trigger the immune system response as if they were. This is a huge subject that I cannot give any advice on, it's just something I have read about.

So long as you make your own spice blends, from whole spices, and use a dedicated grinder that is only ever used to grind whole spices, you should be able to avoid triggering any health nasties for the Ceoliac in your life.

Good luck.

nice work there, Livo!

I have a Pro model KitchenAid. The grinder is a bit temperamental but a beast once you get it into its stride. I found the sausage stuffer attachment OK for small runs (a couple of pounds) but any more than that and it showed its cheapness. I bought a column sausage stuffer from Amazon that makes stuffing sausages an absolute dream. If you're regularly making batches of sausages of more than a couple of pounds / a kg or so, you may want to check out a column stuffer.
