Never heard of Kapitan Curry (originating from Malaysia & Indonesia) & so many other Southeast Asian curries before coming across Roots Palate (avail at Yes Natural & online)!
Love how they’ve made these more accessible to us in plant-based & super convenient-to-prepare forms :>
According to Wiki, “Kari kapitan, or Captain's chicken curry, is a classic #Nyonya dish. It is normally a richer, drier, and thicker version of the standard local chicken curry, with each household having its own family recipe.
The origins of the name of the dish, Kari kapitan, are much debated. One popular suggestion is that a ship's captain during the colonial period in Penang asked his cook what was being prepared for dinner, to which the cook responded: 'Kari, kapitan!'.
Nonetheless, the title 'kapitan' was first introduced during the 16th century by the Portuguese and was used to indicate a local leader, without any specifically nautical connotation.” #vestigesofcolonialism
This curry was mildly spicy & tasted like it had dessinâtes coconut in the mix. Super flavourful and fragrant & pairs really well with rice for warm & hearty rainy day meal 😋✨ #curry
