Pui Vindaloo (chicken Vindaloo)
articol scris de Brindusa blog brindusascheaua.blogspot.com
Vindaloo este un curry din estul Indiei, din regiunea Goa. Prin partile acelea influentele Portugheze au atins atat modul de preparare (cu vin sau otet), cat si numele, care provine din "Carne de Vinha d' Alhos". Mancarea se poate face din porc, pui, miel si nu e neaparat necesar sa fie foarte iute (cum des se intalneste in restaurantele din vest), ci foarte aromata.
Pentru ca in hindi "aloo" inseamna cartofi, in multe retete se gasesc si acestia. De fapt,traditionalul vindaloo nu are cartofi.
