I would love to hear your favorite Indian/ Pakistani/ Indonesian/ Fijian simple potato (or equivalent yam etc) curry that I can serve as part of a buffet table, also, any simple side dishes or dips/ condiments that can be served that are tasty and easily made. We will be having lamb, beef, chicken and prawns, mostly bbq’d after marinating in yummy stuff. I have access to good spice shops locally so if I don’t have it I can get some. Thankyou Curry lovers of the world!

I know there’s some great family secret type ethic recipes for goat meat, especially from the islands and Africa. I don’t live in an area where I can get them. How about sharing some of your favorites?
