    LOL, I just made curry last night! My meat of choice was pork, which I bowenrd in coconut oil, braised, and then seared in coconut oil again so it had a crispy outside. Kind of like the way they bread it, but without breading.And then, a little veg, coconut milk, and I used curry paste. I always used curry powder in the past, but after using green curry paste last night, I will NEVER go back to powder. EVER!I was less adventurous and plopped mine on top of cauliflower rice. So fatty, low carb, and satisifying. I’m actually fasting today as a result, even though only a small amount satiated me. w00t!
