Hey there! I am Hilah, so a couple of weeks ago I posted this thing on Facebook and I
-
was all like, "Please help me with show ideas because I have no ideas, and I am so stupid."
-
Just kidding, it was just like a regular thing asking people if they have any requests, and
-
a friend of mine Zeb requested a quick and dirty curry recipe that he is a bachelor type
-
of guy, and so he could like make up a big ole pot and leave it in his fridge, take it
-
for lunch or he can like show it off to a date and get some panties down, whatever,
-
we'll see if it works for him, let's go. [MUSIC]
-
So basically just a really good technique for making a currently. I don't know authentic
-
it is, but it tastes pretty good, and so we'll cut up the onion really, really small, and
-
fry it in some oil with spices and tomatoes and sort of cook that down until it's real
-
thick and then throw in the vegetables and I don't want to make a vegetarian curry today
-
because it's easier and cheaper and healthier, so there you go. All right, cut this up super-tiny,
-
let's go. All right, I got my big ole pot heated up. I am gonna put in a couple of tablespoons
-
of butter, and a little bit of oil also, and I am gonna cook my onions and my spices.
-
So I throw in my onions. Okay, so I am gonna add my spices. If you just have curry powder
-
that's fine, but most people have cumin seed also, mustard seed, whatever, but if you just
-
have, if you just have curry powder that's okay. I am just gonna give it a little crush.
-
I don't need them finely ground because I am gonna actually put them in here and sort
-
of toast them a little bit and then I will bring out a lot of the oils and then also
-
some turmeric which what I have read in my Indian cookbook readings is that it is important
-
to fry the turmeric to sort of get rid of the bitterness. I don't know any difference
-
but I am just doing what they say, and then it turns bright yellow, and it's beautiful.
-
I am gonna add in my premixed curry powder. Stir that around and then I'll add my tomatoes
-
and just let that cook for a while until it gets a little soft while I cut up my vegetables;
-
my vegetables. All right, I'll do that hand squeezing thing
-
that might gross some of you out, but you can cut them up if you want to. Okay, I forgot
-
to put the garlic in. I should have put that in before the tomatoes, but in the grand scheme
-
of things, who really cares right? So I don't know. This is kind of a lot of curry so. That
-
much. Get it in there, and then I have got potatoes and broccoli and cauliflower, but
-
you can use whatever your little heart desires. Oh, this shit is bubbling. It's like a bubbling
-
cauldron. I am gonna get my vegetables ready. I got a couple of potatoes and I have my little
-
potato friend there that looks like a ball sack, and I can't bring myself to eat it or
-
throw it away. I got some broccolis. I am gonna use the stems and the top part because
-
I don't like to waste food, and I am back, okay.
-
So I am just gonna dissect this way, set that aside, and then use this. So let's see what
-
am I doing here. So just cut off the main part of the stem, and then you can use your
-
knife just to get off most of the peel, but it's not really that tough, so it will cook
-
down and it will be fine if you don't get it all off,and just chunk it. Just as long
-
as they are roughly the same size, and these because they cook a lot faster, I want to
-
to leave them a bit, a little bigger so that they don't just turn into a big mush pile
-
at the end of it because I mean that's okay, but it's all mushy, but broccoli is one thing
-
that I am not a huge fan of if it's really overcooked. Pretty much everything else though
-
I'll eat it undercooked or overcooked or whatever. I am not very picky. Looks good, looks good.
-
All right, I am gonna cut up these potatoes. Throw these bad boys in there. Just cubes
-
about the same size as your broccoli stem chunks.
-
Whoa! So this has been about five minutes kind of over medium heat, and it's really
-
thickening up and it smells delish. So I am gonna put in these vegetables and cut up some
-
more, and then we're practically done. All right, put the potatoes on the bottom for
-
now, and then most of the broccoli stems. It'll all get mixed up later, but whatever.
-
I like to keep stuff segregated until the very last minute. A couple of carrots, I am
-
just gonna give them a rinse. I don't ever peel carrot. Who gives a shit about carrot
-
skin? It's barely there, so these little round. Whoops! Put those in, and somebody something
-
interesting about turmeric, and that is it's really good for your prostate. So guys, it's
-
a good idea to eat some turmeric or yellow curry because it has turmeric in it. Also,
-
yellow mustard is colored with turmeric, so if you love mustard, you probably have a healthy
-
prostate. All right, now these are kind of a beast to
-
cut up, but what you do is break off all these leaves and put that in the compost or send
-
it to me and I will put it in my compost, and uh, okay, I am gonna get in there like
-
that. I don't know. There's probably multiple ways to do this, but this way is kind of fun
-
because you get to use your muscles. Rrrrghhh! All right, so just like break off hunks like
-
that I guess, or if you have a better way to do it then by all means, go ahead. Okay,
-
there we go. That's the way I normally do it. That's what I meant to do getting, okay,
-
so I don't know. I don't need a ton of cauliflower because we have a lot of broccoli in there
-
already. So we have our cancer fighting cruciferous vegetables, and I will just cut these about
-
the same size as the broccoli florets. I am tired. That was like a race. Okay, throw
-
this in. I am gonna give it a stir. So colorful. Okay, now I need to add some water. We want
-
the vegetables to be pretty much covered, not completely. So maybe three cups total.
-
Yeah, that's more like it, and I am gonna add the salt at this point, and then I am
-
gonna put a lid on it, put a lid on it. I am gonna put a lid on it and just let it cook
-
for a while until they are kind of soft. That's probably a teaspoon. I am gonna stir. Oh,
-
I am also gonna throw in a can of rinsed and drained chick peas, but you can use any kind
-
of beans you want, and I am gonna put a lid on it, turn that to high because I am impatient
-
and let it cook for I don't know, 20 minutes, give it a stir every five minutes or so, and
-
then it's chow time mother. . . sorry. Get some of this business in a bowl. All right,
-
check that out. I am gonna put some cilantro on top and make it authentic. You could put
-
rice under it or you could not. I don't care. You could just eat it like that. That's what
-
I am gonna do. All right, that's how you make curry real quick down under, dirty style,
-
that's for Zeb. Check it out. Go to YouTube, subscribe to my channel, why not? I mean it's
-
fun right? See ya!
