Hi Dave,


DD> Ain't it a b ...ear when your medicine tries to kill you? I had to go
DD> to Bing and look up "hyperaldosteronism". I've already got damage to
DD> my kidneys I can do without having a problem with the adrenal glands.

RH> I've no idea what brought that on but I'm glad we finally figured out
RH> what was going on. They couldn't tell which gland it was coming from
RH> (or both), usually if they can tell, the "offending one" is taken out.
RH> Otherwise, as in my case, it gets controlled by a single med, once a
RH> day.

DD> I think I druther keep both adrenal glands and add another med to the
DD> cocktail I'm already taking.

Same here, but if surgery were the better option, I'd have probably gone
with that.

DD>      8<----- EDIT ----->8

DD> friends and I visited we were the only non-Asians in the place - which
DD> speaks well for the authenticity. I've discovered many new foods there
DD> as well as my favourite find - Mango Ice Cream. Yuuuuuummm.

RH> We didn't get the ice cream this time, maybe go back and do a sit down
RH> meal there, with ice cream for dessert. When we first moved to WF, we
RH> found a good Indian place in Raleigh, with a buffet. They either closed
RH> or moved after a few years, don't know which. One of the tows on the
RH> west side of Raleigh has a significant Indian population with a cricket
RH> club, all sorts of restaurants, etc but it's a good bit out of our way
RH> for just a meal so we're going to go back to this place and try
RH> another, just curry place that opened up in WF a couple of years ago.

DD> If you've never had mango I scream and you get a chance to try it - by
DD> all means give it a whirl.

We've had it a number of times. Didn't get it this time as we were doing
take out, not eating in.

DD> This (or maybe it was goat) was on the buffet one time. Good stuff.

DD>       Title: Lamb Biryani
DD>  Categories: Lamb/mutton, Vegetables, Chilies, Dairy, Herbs
DD>       Yield: 8 servings

RH> Looks good except for the amount of cilantro in it. I know, needed for
RH> the flavor, but..........

DD> Here's one w/o soapweed. And using economical chicken.

DD> MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

DD>       Title: Student's Chicken Biryani Pilau
DD>  Categories: Poultry, Rice, Curry, Vegetables
DD>       Yield: 6 Servings

It does look good--and easy. I've done a simple beef curry from time to
time but never really gotten into cooking other Indian foods.
