Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Is kurma curry? 🤔
Asking because Max Fosh think it is, but I disagree.

What even is (or isn't) curry... 🤔 Is tikka masala curry or spicy thick sauce?

Indian korma is meat/vegetables braised in yogurt, stock and spices. In Malaysia and southern India yogurt is replaced by coconut milk. Not quite the same as the typical curry.

Depends on how hard you want to fight it. Back in India they'll argue to begin with it refers to a specific type of dish. But in a non-indian English esp in gwailoland, anything vaguely thick stew and south asian is seen as "curry". So if you rajin you can pick a fight along the lines of cultural appropriation kot - simply2 say, dasar org putih etc etc

I mean even kari is not quite curry. Japanese curry uses applesauce. That said, not having curry powder/leaves and calling it curry still is quite tone-deaf
