Dishes Off The Curry Lane

The recipes in this blog are from our moms, sisters, friends and other internet sites which we have tried at The Curry Lane. So, you will observe that we have shamelessly copied recipes from others and made some changes based on what we did to those recipes. You will see some pictures of how some of them turned out. We will post only those recipes that we have tried and liked at The Curry Lane. Pssssst.... This is mainly for Mr.Curry lane's reference when Ms.Curry Lane is not in a mood to cook.
