At first I thought you were standing in front of an open fridge and wondered why you had a printer in your fridge. It's time to go to sleep.

Same, I thought... "this person keeps a printer in their fridge? And books??? And...oh, it's a shelf."

I thought I was losing it thinking it was a fridge but apparently quite a few others did as well.

I thought it was a fridge too and wondered what the heck that white machine thing is! This made me LOL

I can't believe how many other people thought the same thing lol.

The amount of people who thought the same makes me feel so much better about my brain function lol.

No Indian would recognise this as vindaloo.

According to ancestry.com I am 0% Indian, and I definitely don't recognize this as vindaloo.

Doesn’t look much like vindaloo tbh

Vindaloo is supposed to be red...it's pepper based.

ts1506 OP t1_j60st7w wrote

Its not that red because I couldn’t find kashmiri chilli / powder nearby. I substituted it instead. Standard chilli powder or paprika doesn’t lead to a vibrant colour. The rest of the spices are as per the recipe I followed.

ts1506 OP t1_j6024b8 wrote

I added a few ingredients that I wanted to get rid of in my pantry, so certainly not a traditional recipe.

So it's a curry you made. Looks nice, I'd have left out the vindaloo part.

Curry's are a base gravy with added meat and/or vegetables. Where is the gravy man?!

10

ts1506 OP t1_j60szaf wrote

If you must know, its there, just not in this picture. I’ve had a spate of incidents with gravy spilling over when trying to hold a plate and take a picture, so now I pour it over only when sitting down to eat 🤫

This post is like someone making campbells chicken noodle soup and making a post picturing it saying "progresso tomato soup"... Looks more like stir-fry to me.

Lots of comments in the vindaloo, which admittedly looks like a stir fry.

But nobody commented on the bulgur. F*cking bulgur?! It’s rice or GTFO

ts1506 OP t1_j60z9c9 wrote

What did bulgur ever do to you bro 😢

ohms12 t1_j60zryt wrote

The real question is, what ever did rice do to you?!

ts1506 OP t1_j610456 wrote

Nothing, I’m asian, I love rice. But I mean, bulgur is pretty nice too.

ohms12 t1_j610d07 wrote

Also Asian. Also an owner of multiple Asian restaurants.

But bulgur has no place in our food, man. It should be tossed in the same heap quinoa came from 😂

1

ts1506 OP t1_j610oxa wrote

Admittedly true. I was introduced to it by a Spanish friend, and I occasionally mix and match it with certain stuff.

This is the first time I’ve used it with an asian food though, and I honestly thought it went quite well, although fresh rice would’ve been nicer.

ohms12 t1_j61a80b wrote

I’m guessing you’re SE Asian?

My test would be this; could you serve this to your gran? In my case, I’d get openly laughed at if I tried this. Or smacked. Idk 😂

ts1506 OP t1_j62r3ck wrote

Haha fair way to put it. I’m Indian to be specific. Bulgur isn’t a thing there, I had never heard of it before I moved abroad.

That looks like a stir fry with rice...

Brother that is a stir fry

Vindaloo? Looks more like a HP 2710e to me.

Could be wrong though, difficult to tell from that angle.

ts1506 OP t1_j60yhgm wrote

Its a 2722e but tbf all of them look the same to me.

I have the same copy of Saratchandra's novellas 🤭 love me some Devdas (and vindaloo ofc)

ts1506 OP t1_j6100uz wrote

Its one of the few physical books I considered carrying with me when I moved abroad and primarily started going e-books. I want to read the Bengali versions, but unfortunately I’m quite slow at reading Bengali. The translations unfortunately makes it lose a lot of character.

It’s important to feed your printer a healthy & varied diet.

Queasy-Philosopher85 t1_j61qvzt wrote

It's your version of Vindaloo. Looks yummy and healthy. Forget about the keyboard critics who I highly doubt can make any version of curry. Enjoy your warm home-cooked creation!!!

rocannon10 t1_j6254xj wrote

Cook bulgur with some onions and tomato paste. It’s much better.

Ooo you reminded me that bulgar is delicious. I keep trying to make barley happen.

Looks good!

I thought you had a printer in your refrigerator at first.

Looks yummy, looks a little dry though

ts1506 OP t1_j60y9bj wrote

I keep the gravy out when I take the picture, due to a number of disastrous spills in the past 🥹. I pour it in when sitting down to eat.

Took my far too long to realize you don’t keep books in your fridge.

I am not Indian but have been cooking Indian food for 33 years. This is not vindaloo.

I’ve got that printer. Any idea why it often doesn’t print the second page without needing to push a button?
