How dare you take a photo of this and share it publicly? Our lawyers will be reaching out to you.
Oh, ic. That does appear to be what OOP meant.
Would you still call them a pirate though? More of an ex-pirate imo. If someone was a blacksmith in their 20s and is now a chef in their 60s. You would not call them an elderly blacksmith.
According to that image French privateering ended before two of those other things started, right?
Am I missing something?
That looks great!
Damn, two bloodywood posts in two days in this sub.
Yeah, most things like that in India aren't made from mixes, but rather each cook individually adding each spice.
That brown soup is probably one of those regional specialties I mentioned. I've never had it, but now I want to try making it. I don't think I'll be able to find it around where I am. Regional specialties are super hard to find in Indian restaurants in other countries.
Chapatis are a subcategory of roti. Like baguettes are a subcategory of bread.
Roti is a very broad term, its closest translation is just "bread".
I'd say south Korea has us beat rn. But we won't back down, we'll keep fighting for that gold.
Btw, curries are more of a special occasion thing in India. You don't really cook them at home everyday. I don't know much about Orissan cuisine, but let me walk you through typical everyday south Indian home cooked food.
Breakfast:
Typically Dosa, idli, and some region specific variants served with a chutney or sambar. Dosa can be served with some dry vegetable stir fries as well.
Upma.
Vermecilli noodles.
A few rice dish breakfasts also exist like pongal and vangibath.
Lunch and dinner:
Rice with sambar, rasam, or any type of dal.
Palaus.
Chapati with a stir fried vegetable dish.
There are some regional specialties for both chapati and rice. Example: https://aahaaramonline.com/ulava-charu-kollu-rasam-recipe/.
There are also regional substitutes for rice/chapati. Example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragi_mudde.
Not in India, but I looked it up, and these seem to exist over there: https://www.jiomart.com/p/groceries/mtr-ready-to-eat-mix-vegetable-curry-300-g/490081395.
Maybe try looking for these MTR ready to eat curries in a reliance supermarket if there are some around.
Also, ordering from a restaurant - even with delivery - is really cheap in India. To the point that getting fresh food delivered to your door can be more economical than buying a premixed curry. I would check the Zomato or Swiggy delivery apps.
