curry withdrawal

there are things an englishman should not be deprived of for very long.

curry is one of them. it has been 8 weeks *sigh* :)

but today I had a little slice of heaven, the closest thing to curry around here. The traditional bahian dish, moqueca de camarao (prawn moqueca). The moqueca we had was a spicy mix of vegetables and sea food, drowned in a heavenly sauce. A bit like a spicy paella without the rice. Served with side dishes of rice, refried beans and vegetables. Although looking at this link I can't work out where the spiciness came from. Probably not everybody makes it quite the same.

Anyway, it was damn fine. Might do seconds tomorrow :)
