Why do I have the temptation to call the blender Sir Mix-a-Lot?

We need a tea towel or oven mit that says "Give me the extra bay leaf. I'm not driving."

Her curry just went international really with all the condiments she added. It was not just an indian curry, but also combined flavours from south east asia, east asia, middle eastern, etc. The french twist was the addition of wine into it.

OMG this is my Mum's dinner party beef curry from the sixties! Complete with the side bowls of roasted peanuts, sliced banana and grated coconut! It was a great hit. :D

Someone in the comments below suggests you name your blender...Sir Mix-alot ....I second this.

I watch this channel religiously and it brings so much joy to me ❤

Julia Child actually did live in Sri Lanka and Mumbai for a couple years and ate authentic South Asian cuisine.

Adding the apple to curry is a Japanese inspiration. They like their curries milder and sweeter.

Jamie,  
Maybe this kitchen hack will help your warped cutting board problem.  
1). Heat your oven with a clean cookie sheet on the middle rack to about 250" and shut the oven off. 
2). Put the cutting board on the cookie sheet with the dome part of the warp facing up.  
3). Place a heavy Dutch oven (i.e., cold Le Creuset if you have it) on top.  
4). Check your board after about five minutes.  
5) The weight of the kettle should flatten out the board. If you don't have a heavy Dutch oven, you can always fill a big pot with water for extra heft and weight. 
 
As our Julia would say, "Bon chance." I hope it helps; it worked for me.

"Every type of farm animal except a horse .... thank God..." LOL. Another great job, Jamie! It looks delicious !!

‘You put the lime in the coconut, ’ to stop it turning brown.
‘Now let me get this straight, I said Doctor, you put the lime in the coconut’ to stop it turning brown.
‘Woo-oo-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh’

I grew up in Durban, it has the largest community of Indians outside India, and curry is pervasive. The two things I always have with my curry is curry leaves, and sliced banana. I also like having raita, which is the cucumber and onion, but mixed with plain yoghurt and a few spices. If you add fresh chillies to your curry it really helps moderate the spiciness. Mmmm, I'm so hungry for a good curry now. Thanks for a brilliant episode.

In the middle of your video YouTube had an ad for business class on Air France. You must have a very classy demographic. Makes me feel proud. And a little haughty.

I will forever love the bay leaf comments! I recently told my sons about it (both are great cooks, taught them everything 🤣) they both laughed out loud and have used your saying while cooking. Again, humor makes great food!

[kyndramb]

3:07 Made me straight-up cackle! 😂 The 1960s weren't THAT long ago... but sentiments like this remind me how far we've come.

But without those coconut shells, how will you ride forth to seek the Grail?

When I look back at some of the earlier videos Jaime impresses me more every week

Sir Mix-A-Lot. A noble knight of the kitchen kingdom.

Hi. Next time you make this curry try this - place the rice in a ring close to the edge of the plate creating a well, spoon the curry in well. Spoon the condiments alternately on the the rice forming a pattern. You can then eat it taking a spoon of rice with the condiment you want, say chopped peanuts, dragging it into the curry to get the meat and sauce. You can also mix it all together as you wish, but plating up this way is very pretty.
