    I have the cookbook from which this recipe comes from. Julia Child did spent time in India but states in the book that she is not an expert in Indian Cooking and refers readers to Madjur Jaffry's "an invitation to Indian Cooking". Julia didn't pretend to know everything which was another reason she was so great.

    In 1993, Julia Child had Madhur Jaffrey on "Cooking with Master Chefs" to demonstrate some real Indian food. At the time she taped this, many of the ingredients for a more authentic Indian recipe would have been difficult to find in cities and probably impossible to find in most of America.

  • @Leguminator
    @Leguminator 17 днів тому +17

    She did say up front this isn't authentic Indian, so I give her props for that, plus the ingredients available in US supermarkets then vs. today makes for a pretty stark contrast. I wonder if canned coconut milk was even a thing in the US in 1970, 1971. Overall this doesn't seem like a bad effort, but as someone said below it doesn't hold up too well. I think with the ingredients we have available today in supermarkets and online our palates are better informed. Or maybe I'm overly optimistic regarding American tastes. No matter what, Julia remains fantastic.

    The journey of globalization of food recipes is so interesting pre-internet, it was so based around guess work and using text without photos, standardizing recipes that had never used an imperial measuring cup, etc. it’s not always great but it’s cool to see how even before we were hyper connected, we craved to understand and learn about each other through food. Yes companies and governments capitalized on that desire for profit and with atrocity, but look how far we have come when it comes to learning about eachother! A lot further to go, but still amazing progress so far maybe? Idk

    Julia is a delight as always. I do love that her French cooking led her to using olive oil when there were so many choices available. The Madras curry/powder she’s using is still available. I like to use it in coronation chicken salad. I think I may have to try Julia’s recipe sometime soon (maybe without the raisins ;))

  • @jessrow1275
    @jessrow1275 14 днів тому

    The funny thing is that this isn’t that different from Japanese curry, especially Vermont Curry, which incorporates apples. It has no relation to Indian methods of preparation at all, as JC knew very well. Her mistake is to suggest that this sauce would work with any kind of leftover meat.

    "Some Wag"....is this a variation of the term "wog"? lol

    • @VladamireD
      @VladamireD 17 днів тому +3

      In British English, the noun "wag" is a person fond of making jokes, as in 'Harry’s a bit of a wag'. This use of wag is generally thought to come from an obsolete word meaning ‘someone who swings to and fro on a rope’, in other words a person sentenced to be hanged. A synonym of Joker, comedian, etc.

      The world's most popular "Indian" dish -chicken tikka masala- was invented in Scotland. Brits returning to the UK from India really missed the foods they had eaten there, and they did their best to recreate them.
