The best vegetarian curry pastes IN THE WORLD*

I want to share this for all the non-meat eating / non-shrimp eating folk out there who also might find themselves peering at the small print on the sides of cans of curry paste at their local shops. Well, have I got news for you – a brand that makes at leat 5 kinds of curry paste that are completely vegetarian, cheaper than most others and available in little feisty concentrated tins rather than big creamy cans at a mainstream fruit and veg chain. ‘Nnoooooo?’ I hear you say? But yes! It’s true. Look out for:

Available at Harris Farms grocers in Sydney and I’m not sure where else.

Am off to eat tofu massaman curry n rice with a side serve of steamed winter greens. Don’t mind me.

* Did I mention that my little brother was a fan of saying ‘IN THE WORLD’ about everything when I saw him last? As in ‘did you know that transformer /playground /dinosaur is the fastest/ best/ biggest IN THE WORLD???’.

The big questions

Well, for me today anyway.

Sheer stockings – the most stupid thing on earth? Doomed to the dustbin after just one wear?

Heaving crowds at book signings in inner city book launches – the most claustrophobic, dry and cluttered feeling ever?

Asking for a Turkish coffee in a Lebanese restaurant; drunk, or stupid?

Tidy bedroom – new regime or passing fad?

Early lunch plans on a Saturday – sociable and cheery or a recipe for disaster when you want to sleep in after a busy week?
