Good advice. I always suggest chicken tikka masala as the entry point to Indian cuisine. If you like that, go further. If you don't, just give up. |

I need to clarify. I was a little short on my spicy/mild distinction.
Spicy curry is AWESOME, but it's still at it's base spicy food. It's not as distinct from, spicy Thai, Mexican, Creole, Jamaican, Korean, etc., as mild Indian food is from all other cuisines. Spicy is spicy, by and large. I advise to start with mild Indian, not because I don't like spicy. I love it. But the mild stuff shows you how distinctive Indian cuisine can be. |

Also good to define spicy. All Indian food is spicy in that it's full of spice, way more than American cuisine. Not all is spicy hot. |

Spicy curry uses the same cayenne that kung pao or larb or chili does. Describing the mix of spices in mild Indian is a much more complex matter. Explain cardamom to someone who's never tasted it, or try explaining star anise to someone who doesn't like black licorice whips. So I just recommended he try it himself at a reputable buffet. |

I've personally never had luck at buffets. I know many that have, but not me. |

Homemade chicken and noodle soup. This is the first cool day that I've had time to make it.

I'm going to do a little cross-thread posting for ideas. I just bought a 12-pound pork belly, most of which is going to get cured and turned into bacon, some of which will get given away as little Christmas gifts for people at work, probably.
But I'm going to save 2-3 pounds to actually cook with. I've never made pork belly as a dish, so open to some ideas. Anyone? |

I love most everything Indian, including curried goat. I'm 50-50% on most Vindaloo dishes as their extreme heat tends to overpower the food, like Lamb Vindaloo. . |

You put any veggies in? Personally I pass on any veggies beyond some onion. I make it pretty simple, chicken, noodles, broth form chicken, salt, pepper and some bouillon. |

the cut of meat you call is a bit suspicious you may have a belly or a bacon. if the rind is skinny and makes little lard then you have the part closest to the cock. the better cut is is close to the chest. |
