[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	R. M. BEEF CURRY 2 lbs. inexpensive braising or stewing beef cubes 1 lb. of 1/2" diced carrots, onions, celery, turnips (4 oz. each) 8 oz. Patna rice (Mahatma or UNCLE BEN'S®) 1 oz. hot curry powder 1/4 oz. fines herbs (sage, thyme, cumin) 2 oz. tomato paste 6 cloves garlic 1/2 tsp. salt 1 oz. honey 2 pts. chicken stock 2 oz. butter Melt the butter in a saucepan, heat until hot, add the beef and fry until sealed golden brown, add all the vegetables and the crushed garlic and the herbs. Fry for 5 minutes and add the flour, cook for another minute, stirring all the time. Add the tomato paste with the stock, cover and cook in an oven for about 2 hours, or on the stove simmering very slow for 2 hours, after 1 1/2 hours boil the rice until soft. The rice takes no more than 18 minutes to cook. The oven should be at 350 degrees. The chef just used some oil, not butter and long grain rice. He also substituted rib eye so he didn't have to cook very long, about 10 minutes before adding the rice. You don't have to use beef or any meat at all if you want it it veggie, I'd add taters. If you want to use fish or shrimp, wait until the rice is almost fully cooked before adding because fish and shrimp cook very fast. You can throw this together in just a few minutes and feed a family in 1/2 an hour. Edit: You don't have to use hot curry if you don't want to. -----signature----- There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity.

	I really do hate it. I've tried red curry, green curry, yellow curry, sour curry, panang, and masaman. The SO absolutely LOVES the stuff and somehow always manages to get me to at least try it, but I really can't stand the stuff. -----signature----- http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/ "It's crazy that the board newbies think I am a Liberal and B_T is a neo-con." - Gustaive_MT "God left a very clear instruction to Adam.

	That sounds absolutely yummy! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE curry....so I balance out Lynea. I'd probably put in garbanzo beans instead of beef or some chicken or turkey. I'll have to try it later this week. -----signature----- No sense being pessimistic.... It wouldn't work anyway.

	I've never heard of korma curry, but I think it's the cardamum I don't like. I also don't like coconut. -----signature----- http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/ "It's crazy that the board newbies think I am a Liberal and B_T is a neo-con." - Gustaive_MT "God left a very clear instruction to Adam.
