This is an awesome contribution. Kathy writes:
I don’t have a blog or anything, but I’d like to contribute some tasty and fairly cheap curry and other recipes to the project. The recipes.doc file is a cookbook I put together a few years ago with family recipes and some contributions from the mother in law a few years ago as Christmas gifts for my mom and sisters (Tigger is one of my cats). There are a few in there that aren’t terribly cheap to produce, but that I like for special occasions and such. Also, some of the recipes will be listed in both files. As far as cheap food goes, though, most of the curries are really cheap to produce if you have access to a decent Asian grocery and several in the recipes.doc file are family standards from my mom’s (and my) childhood in southern WV where ends had to be forced to meet sometimes.

Again, I make a habit of shopping at an Asian goricery store because so many of their products are cheaper. Even expensive spices like cumin can be bought in bulk for very little money. Chuck vouches for this option here, as he’s the one that introduced me to my choice market in the first place.
I just want to point out that the pumpkin pie recipe (which is the best pumpkin pie ever) in the family recipes file should read 1 can evaporated milk and not condensed milk. My sister pointed that out to me when she used that recipe last week and came out with an overly sweet pie. Sorry about that.
Ooh, y’all, Kathy is an awesome cook. Enjoy!
Mac users would just right-click. Or, assuming a one button mouse, ctrl-click. Simple!
I produced a family cookbook a couple of years ago. If you want it, ping me and I’ll email it.
I don’t know if anyone’s posted this already, but I love these recipes — not only are they cheap, but they’re easy and quick enough to fit into four panels!

I’m excited to try these recipes out, especially the lentil and chickpea dishes. Yum!
