CURRIED MINCE MACARONI

Steps:

• Take a deep pan and heat the 1& 1/2 tbsps oil.
• Add chopped onions and fry till transclucent.
• lower the flame to medium heat and add the garam masala powder and fry for a couple of seconds.
• Add the lamb mince and fry till no longer pink and water has dried up.
• Keep breaking the lumps to ensure the meat is lump free.
• Now add the Ginger-garlic paste ,chilli powder and salt and fry for another minute.
• Add the yogurt and cook for 2-3 minutes,stirring now and then to get a uniform mixture.
• Now add the chopped tomatoes,green chillies,lime juice and the chopped coriander,and mix well.
• Cover the pan and let cook on low flame for 15 mins,till you can see some oil on the top of the curry.
• Cook the pasta as per instructions (a little under done).
• Mix the pasta in the curry and let cook on the lowest flame for a further 5-10 minutes.
• The entire dish should be saucy-- Garnish with a few coriander leaves.
• I usually serve it with some yogurt chutney.
• NOTE:.
• The yogurt might break up due to the heat,so please don't worry about it.It is just a process,that will make the curry,taste tangy rather than creamy.
• I wanted to add a few sugesstions to this recipe after reading the reviews -- the oil can be reduced if your mince is fatty,this is just an estimate,so go by your judgement -- as for the tomatoes,i usually add tin when fresh is not available,and personally i feel it doesnot alter the taste -- .

CURRIED MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large pot, melt the butter with the oil over medium heat. Add in the red onion, garlic, and green chile and saute until tender, approximately 2 minutes. Sprinkle over the curry powder and all of the flour, stirring to create a roux. Whisk to remove the lumps, and cook the flour for approximately 1 minute.
• Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to create a curried creamy sauce over low heat.
• Bring the sauce to a simmer, and continue whisking for 2 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, discard the green chile, and add 2 cups grated Provolone, and stir until smooth.
• Add the cooked macaroni to the curry sauce, mix until evenly coated, and season with salt. Transfer the macaroni mixture to a 9 by 9-inch baking dish. Sprinkle the top with 1/4 cup bread crumbs and 1/4 cup cheese.
• Arrange the asparagus in a line over the macaroni. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs and cheese over the asparagus, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook the macaroni until it is tender and drain it very well (do not rinse it). Spread the macaroni out in a well-oiled jelly-roll pan and let it cool, tossing it to coat it with the oil in the pan. In a kettle fry the macaroni in batches in 1 inch of 350°F. vegetable oil for 2 minutes, or until it is pale golden, and transfer it with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. In a small bowl combine well the curry powder, the salt, and the cayenne. In a bowl toss the macaroni with the sesame oil, add the curry mixture, and toss the mixture well.
