Este inusitado curry convierte, de manera rápida, simples sandías en un auténtico y espectacular curry hindú.
Página1  2  

Vierte la mezcla de sandía y especias en la olla.   Psssssh, hierve y burbujea como aguas termales de Islandia.  Reduce el fuego y déjalo espesar un poco, 3-5 minutes. Pruébalo y añade un poco de azúcar si la necesita.  Las sandías se ven muy dulces pero no lo son.

Agrega los cubos de sandía a la salsa.

Cocínalo unos 3-4 minutes, removiendo suavemente hasta que los cubos estén totalmente cubiertos de la salsa.  Sazona con un poco de jugo de limón (photo).

Sírvelo como acompañamiento o como una cena ligera y refrescante con arroz y pan naan.

Esta receta es más que una curiosidad - te agradará mucho.  Yo la estaré cocinando de nuevo.  El curry pica mucho por los chiles y a la vez explota con frescura en la boca, un poco como un primo rojo de una raita.

Interesting recipe.  I made it this afternoon and it has definite potential.  I'm wondering about the 2 tbsp of turmeric, though -- is that the correct amount?  It seemed off-balance to me; I think I'd reduce it by half the next time I make this.Also, what is the rice dish shown in the final picture?  I cooked some basmati with raisins and cashews and it was pretty good.  Maybe yours has saffron?

Derek, I revised the ingredient list and you were indeed right - there was way too much turmeric. Sorry for that!

For the rice if I'm in a hurry I usually boil basmati or long grain parboiled rice with a chicken stock cube and add raisins soaked in water and saffran or just a drop of turmeric water for the color. You can add some cashew nuts or blanched almonds briefly dry-roasted in a frying pan.

Hi Francois.I tried this at the weekend for an Indian barbecue for 25 people and it was a serious hit. However the dish generated a great deal more fluid than I'd expected (not a problem as I just drained it). Have you experienced that? One of my guests suggested that if it was lightly blitzed in a food processor, it could be an interesting Gazpacho-like spiced soup!RegardsClive

Clive, your making one of my curries is praise from Caesar! I've never eaten better curries than yours even in serious Indian restaurants - thanks! Yes there is much water coming off the crushed watermelon but you just boil it off over high heat. The watermelon cubes are just heated, not really cooked, so unless it is very ripe they should not give off all that much liquid. As for a gazpacho, why not, it would be a nice substitute for people like me who are not too keen on tomatoes!

Hi FrancoisWhile recently in Canada I sampled for the first time, wine from India. This was a 2005 Nashik Shiraz, apparently from 100 miles from Bombay, at 2000 feet asl. Interestingly, it was quite light, closer to a South African Pinot Noir. They've got a website which I've not had a chance to visit yet: www.sulawines.com

Vijayan Tambi. This is a foodie's blog and the wrong place for your question, glad as I am to hear the name of the sixth century saint adi Shankara, as my 4-year old son's name is Advait (non-dual). I suggest you contact APEDA in delhi, a quasi-govt developmental body for further information through their website. The UP goverment Agriculture dev. deptt is also a good place to ask, as the Rampur pathans, desecendants of invaders from the original melon country, Afghanistan, do extensive cultivation of all varieties and types of musk and water-melon. The GM Namdhari melon from Pune, Maharashtra is also worthwhile for your research. I may also add it is ridiculous to ask this question on an international food blog run by a Swiss CA, but it is more to do with your (innocent) lack of exposure than anything. I have lived in an Indian village, ( my maternal grandmum's family zamindari was in Chittor ditrict, Andhra Pradesh) so I understand.

I made this dish a few times this past summer. I work and live on a towboat for two weeks out of every month, with three other men who are not as adventurous in their willingness to try new foods as I am. I cook Indian food almost every day and most days the men will only try a bite. This dish they loved and asked me to make it a regular part of my menu.As the sauce reduces, the cubed watermelon in the bowl releases more of it's delicious juices. I keep adding that juice to the reduction. This prevents the finished dish from becoming too diluted.Rick...

Rick, this sounds intriguing! What do you do on a towboat? Where in the world is it based? Your fellow workers must like you big time for cooking such fine dishes every night!

Mmmm ... cannot wait till the watermelons fruit and ripen in the garden to try this.

I'm a carnivore though. Trying to decide what type of meat to throw into this sauce to bulk up the texture.

Helena, if you try this I recommend you do a separate meat dish and keep the watermelon curry as a refreshing side dish.
This is a very interesting recipe. I never know that we can use watermelon to cook curry. Nice colour!

 Im going to try this recipe,it works perfect for me right now because we have plenty of watermelons in my city plus a very hot summer and it will be nice to have refreshing meal.
  • FX's answer→ Yes it's a great way to use watermelons, don't let it cook too long though and use plenty of chilies.

How many people will this serve?
