@carly you should always cook onions right down, at least until golden (20 mins minimum). Undercooked onions are a cardinal sin in any form of cooking!

I don’t know how to cook curries at all, and I want to cook a slow-cooked beef or lamb curry for tonight. When I look at recipes, they all sound horribly wrong to me. They involve things like covering the raw meat in yoghurt and then putting that, cold, into a simmering sauce. The image that this conjurs in my head is not something I want for dinner. This runs against all my instincts, which would tell me to sear the meat with spices, put that into a simmering sauce for a few hours, and add yoghurt just before serving.

I have cooked one or two recipes that go like this. The recipes never sound appetising and often they don’t look that promising during the cooking process – however there are one or two curries of this style that have become my favourites so I would encourage you to give it a go even if you never do it again.

can you paste the exact quote? I was under the impression he said something along the lines of “why are we letting all these people from shithole countries in here?”

That was my thought, though some now claim he mentioned Africa specifically. (Not that Africa is a country of course.)

There are countries that are shitholes. That’s why lots of people are leaving them. I don’t really have a problem with that description, just what he wants to do about those people who have decided they are not going to waste their lives living in a shithole.

A debate we are constantly having here in Aus; “should we let in anyone, regardless of their ability to contribute to our society.”
