CURRY AMBILLA- A TYPICAL KRISTANG CURRY

RECEIPE EXTRACTED FROM A PUBLICATION CALLED `LINGGU MAI’ BY JOAN MARGARET MARBECK

 

TODAY’S CURRY AMBILLA HAS BEEN MADE WITH BEEF AND EGGPLANT AN ALTERNATIVE TO PORK AND LONG BEANS

 

In English

 

Ingredients

1 kg Pork

10-15 long beans (broken into 2″ pieces) a handful of wet tamarind, salt, sugar

2 — 3 cups of water

3/4 cup cooking oil

 

Wet herb paste

 

20 shallots

10 pips garlic

15 dried chillies

6 candle nuts or almonds

3 stalks lemon grass

1 small piece fresh turmeric

1 small piece ginger

a little belacan (shrimp paste) optional clean and cut all the above and then ‘blend’

 

Method

Heat oil in pot. Fry blended ingredients till aromatic and oil is seen to come to the sides of fried herb paste. Put in meat and fry. Pour in a cup of water and continue to fry. Then stir in the long beans and another cup of water. Allow to simmer for 10-15 minutes until beans are cooked. Squeeze tamarind in another cup of water and take away tamarind seeds. Pour the rest in and keep stirring. If curry looks dry, add a little more water. Put in salt and sugar to taste. Served with long grain fragrant rice. Pork Ambilla Curry is really nice!

New Life Members elected at 2010 AGM

You had to be there to really appreciate this news item. It brought a tear to some eyes I can assure you.

Well the old Management Committee got through the required AGM matters in its normal professional way. Then we came to General Business items. 

It came as quite a shock to our great outgoing President Heather to be nominated and elected as a new Life Member. She thoroughly deserved the honor. 

But wait there’s more.

There was a second Life Member to be nominated! Me!

Well I never did, it came like a bolt out of the blue. OK I have done a few things for the association over the years, but only because I enjoyed doing them and enjoy the rich cultural cross section of members and guests one gets to meet.  Oh and of course the FOOD!

To those two guys that proposed and seconded the motion - Many thanks (What was your Swiss bank account number again?). To the members present who voted in the affirmative, Thank you very much, I am sincerely humbled by this most gracious award.

Keep a close eye on the web site as we will soon be making a few changes as a result of the AGM.
