Nice simple recipe and really flavoursome
Courgette subzi
Peel and chop 2-3 courgettes into discs
Fry one medium sized Bombay onion until turning brown. Add courgettes, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, salt to taste but probably 2/3 teaspoon, half a fresh green chilli and 1/2 tomato or a few cherry tomatoes whole. Reduce heat to half, cover and cook for 20 mins. Mash up with a potato masher/back of spoon
Sprinkle fresh coriander and serve. The sweetness of the courgette is really good.
I usually make this to accompany daal and rice.
I'm doing veggie curry tonight - might try this one. Got everything except the fresh chilli but my partner is a spice wimp anyway. Courgette subzi

Bombay onion is a generic term for an onion imported from India. They're pinkish. In between a white onion and red onion. Flavour is different to white or red onion (unsurprisingly). Probably a softer flavour.
Readily available from your South Asian grocery store. Slightly more expensive than white onion but per onion we are talking a few pence difference. Price can go up really high sometimes if there are supply problems.

Does anyone like or had dal makhani or black dal? We hunted high and low for a decent recipe and found the Rick stein one to be the closest to being authentic. It’s so tasty.
A desi recipe in English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOlNWZbcn4MThere are much better ones but most are in Punjabi or Hindi.

Mae Ploy is the daddy of Thai pastes....in my opinion.
Oil in wok.
Paste in wok
Onions, garlic ginger, fresh coriander
Few mins to get going
Coconut milk in, let it simmer and reduce a bit.
Chicken in...let it poach
Dump in some green veg.
You'll get a decent green curry with that as a base method.

I made this last night, but with a European onion rather than an Indian one! I didn't mash it down completely as I wanted texture rather than mush, and I could have added used more chilli, but it was tasty. I shall finish the remainder of it tonight with spicy salmon I think.

Glad you enjoyed it.
I got a bit obsessed with doing BIR curry a while ago - its a bit of a faff but worth the effort.
