Follow me, go cooking

I often like the things I cook.

I often improvise on the spot.

I rarely recall the components afterward.

Sometimes I remember to write things down.

Below are what I did the last two times I remembered to write.

• Half a rutabaga, chopped
• Bread syrup
• 1 die chicken stock
• 1 onion
• 3 cloves of garlic
• A few dashes of jalfrezi spice mix
• 1 can of corn
• 1 can of mushrooms
• Salt, black pepper
• Served with pasta because I felt like it, but should stand just fine on its own.

Bread syrup is a pretty nice sweetener, I like how it adds its own character.

And in the picture, we see the following:

• 1 can of mushrooms
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 smallish piece of ginger, coarsly chopped
• 3 small cloves of garlic, chopped

I fried the above on somewhat high temperature for a while, then put in:

• Half a pineapple, chopped in nice large chunks
• Around two or three decilitres of yoghurt
• Plenty of curry and turmeric
• A little salt and pepper

Then I just stirred everything and let it simmer for perhaps 20 minutes.

Served with pasta (with a bit of cheese on top for good measure). It came out a bit spicier than I expected, but not in any bad way. I think the ginger surprised me (also, that innocent looking last curry powder in the jar was perhaps a little larger than it looked).
