Do you tend to point YOUR finger at others? What???!!! Ok… Ok… I see your finger at me for an answer. Well, let me be honest here.. though I’m not proud of it, I tend to do it at times. Should I make an excuse for it saying, “I’m just a human” or “I’ll just leave at it”.
You can use the same recipe to make with chicken/pork/fish. I’ll mention the method in the Notes section. About the recipe.. well it was something new to me and I actually didnt mind a few pieces of pineapple in my curry. The flavours were well balanced and it paired well with fried rice.
