Hot Indian Action

After work today, I took a short detour by the Indian neighborhood near the La Chapelle métro station to buy some spices. I had been making pseudo-curries in these past few weeks, but I was always improvising with a collection of cumin, garlic, ginger and cumin (and lots of butter, of course). So today’s goal was to get mustard seeds, fenugreek, fennel seeds, cardamom pods, coriander seeds and maybe some lovage. I was successful, but I also managed to leave the store with a bag of spicy yucca chips and spicy murukku. Of course, once I got home, I scarfed down half of the bag of the murukku. That shit is delicious.
