A Little Story About This Dish…
This recipe is SO versatile. It’s a great dipping sauce for beef and chicken sates, its fabulous when tossed with pasta or rice and just thin it a bit with cold water and it makes an outstanding salad dressing.

The curry power in this recipe can be of any brand but you may want to consider Oriental curry powder for the most authentic rendition. You can also adjust the heat of this recipe to your liking, This version is mild.
