The Curious Case of Curry

 What up dudes and dudettes? Drop your skateboards or whatever you kids text with now a days and get ready for more kitchen shenanigans!

I’ve already covered some of the basic things you can make in the kitchen, like spaghetti and Shakespeare’s favorite omelet. Now I’m going to attempt to create something not so commonplace. CURRY!

More specifically, Peanut Curry!

This recipe was provided by my roommate. So if this all goes to hell just blame it on him.

This recipe was brought to you by the Roommate Foundation.
Where no one washes the dishes.
Seriously guys. Just do it.  

Let’s see what we will all need:
Rice
Coconut Milk
Peanut Butter
A Single Onion
Garam Masala
Tomato Paste

Step 1: Pour 2 cups of water in pot with rice. Turn heat to low-medium. 

Step 2:  Dice Onions and put them in a pan. Turn to medium heat.

If in the process of dicing onions someone asks why you're crying
just say you saw a vision of their future career at Wal-Mart.
Step 3: Shake up coconut milk. Pour it into the onion pan and mix it around.


Step 4: Put small amount of tomato paste into pan. Mix.


Step 5: Put in a handful of garam masala into pan. Mix.



Step 6: Put peanut butter into pan. Mix. 

When I asked Roommate why peanut butter, he responded with “It makes the sauce thicker and the taste better.”
A response that would truly make George Washington Carver roll in his grave.  

Step 7: After letting both items heat for around 20 minutes, turn off heat and admire your work.

You did it! You made Peanut Curry! You made a magnificent bowl of shitty peanut curry!

That's right. After my taste testers and I ate a few bites of this gleaming pile of waste
we immediately threw both of these pans out.

You are now allowed to mock Roommate for the recipe. 

Everyone say:

Booooooo Roommate 

Yep. He deserves it. 

Now enough of that. Your roommates will think you may be haunting them.

But all is not lost! You did something! You tried and took the effort and that’s all that matters!
Well eating also matters, but that’s beside the point.

Guest Eater of the Week: Ben aka musical genius 

“I don’t think it’s supposed to taste like this.”
“Is this even curry?!”


Until next week I bid you farewell and happy non curry cooking!

I'd also like to take this opportunity to showcase her improper use of
"your" when it should be "you're".

  1. Great post! Even though it may not have been good, I still feel like I learned something from it. Maybe a few weeks from now you can attempt a curry redemption post with a better recipe (and a better room mate).

  2. What do you think went wrong? Was it just a bad recipe? I'm with Austin as far as a Curry Redemption post.
