Topic: Aroma over taste

[Bob-A-Job]

Most Wednesday's, I cook many meals, some for the weekend and some for the Freezer.

It has become known by my neighbours and my monthly window cleaner as 'curry night' even though we (my son and I) don't actually eat them on that night, it is just when I have the time to make the majority of future meals.

It was tonight again noted that the house smelt like a 'curry house' when they knocked on the door and when asked, they had no idea whether it was Pakistani, bangladeshi or Indian.

I am either a bad cook or have less discerning neighbours.

I am either a bad cook or have less discerning neighbours.

I genuinely doubt that either of these is the case.  I have been eating BIR since the mid-60's, yet were I to enter someone's home where a first-class curry had been prepared I do not think for one second that I would be able to identify it (other than entirely fortuitously) as Indian, Bangladeshi or Pakistani.
