Today I didn’t want to cook, so asked Shoj to cook for me. He made this delicious fish curry with catfish fillets. Actually, he cooks fast and with less ingredients which makes me feel “was it so easy?”. I feel happy and proud when he says me to give his recipe a last final touch (either to taste or add something that might miss….), but he is perfect.
