Title: Hello from Mexico
Post by: Serrano on February 11, 2008, 06:54 PM

Hi Everyone,

No curries here in Mexico.Closest is in Texas. Bit of a trek.

Wow so lucky to have stumbled on this forum.

Looking forward to learning lots from you all.

Regards

Nev

?Hola Nev! ?como estas?

Welcome to cr0!
Well at least you have most of the major spices on your door step and the best chilles on the planet.
Where in Mexico are you?, I love the place and have been there 5 times covering most regions.
You will find all you want to know about curries here so feel free to get involved and post your results.

Have I eaten a curry :D

I was raised in the West Midlands and can even speak some Punjabi and of course Spanish.

Then I ended up in West Yorkshire so I have probably been eating curries for
some 23 years.

You are right in saying that we have all the ingredients on our doorstep plus a few more that are substantially cheaper than in the UK.

avocados ( sometime I am experimenting with in my curries)
Fresh tamarind pods (my favourite in a pathia)
Oodles of coriander and tomatoes (plum and salad and even green tomaotes)
Loads of varieties of chiles
No lemons but lots of limes

Anyway I am hoping to convert the Mexicans into curryaholics, they have every other food Chinese,Japonese,McDonalds(courtesy of our cousins across the pond) but no curry.

This is set to change ;D

Anyway I look forward to conversing with you all

By the way I am in the North of Mexico in the desert region 30 mins from Monterrey

Hasta la proxima mis amigitos

Nev

Ps Jethro excellent use of the double question marks but I guess u noeed a Spanish keyboard. It indicates you know some Spanish " ?C?mo est?s?

I just can't see it somehow but, given your location it's a natural thing to try. Let us know how it goes.

Hi Nev

Welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy the wonderful recipes.

Doesn't the "local" Texas Tandoori Takeaway deliver then?
