I've used it fresh, along with galangal in Thai/Laotian dishes. Never seen an Indian recipe asking for it.

Lets Talk Curry / Re: Bir vindaloo

No, much simpler these days though still using cider vinegar. I was going to write something longer but saw we'd already done the discussion in the recipe you linked.
Good tip on the Morrissons Volcanic vindaloo, I picked up a couple when I was visiting family, not bad for 2 quid....didn't taste anything like any other vindaloo I've eaten either. Still have the Phall to go.

It has its role in my BIR vindaloo, done in my kitchen in France...

lovely, I've been craving Tex-Mex for the last couple of weeks. I do like a couple of squares of dark chocolate in the sauce.

Grow Your Own Spices and Herbs / Re: Curry Leaves

I heard that last year there was a shortage of fresh curry leaves, leading to panic in the restaurants that I eat in Paris where it is considered an essential ingredient. I don't know if there's some worldwide curry leave shortage or it's just seasonal.

No but I always add it to couscous, by couscous I mean North African stew and not semoule (the grain). It has a pretty distinctive anise flavour. Wouldn't be BIR or AIR but might taste good.

As much as I love Haldi's posts, this is just complete guff.

Looking good. Love a vindaloo; cider vinager and black pepper a must, never tried jaggery though...
What Pasananda recipe did you use, still a dish I've never cracked?
