CARROT AND GOLDEN RAISIN (SULTANA) SALAD
I came up with this as a side for a fish curry we ate last night. I have a hand held tool that shreds carrots in long strips. You could just grate the carrot if you don't have the same. I'm in a remote area so used dried mint, feel free to use fresh as I would if I could get it!

CURRIED RICE WITH RAISINS
My friend Cara and I needed a side dish one night and all I could think of was a curry dish I'd had at a local (Manhattan) Tai resturant. I could not find anything that was exactly right in the recipes already posted so I made this up. It was soooooooo good I now have to make it everytime we have dinner!!

Steps:
- Cook rice in 2 cups of water. Basmati rice is hard to ruin. It cooks fast and is exactly 2 to one ratio water to rice. 1 cup uncooked Basmati will take 10 to 20 minutes to cook.
- While rice is cooking melt butter in skillet.
- Chop onion and saute in butter until translucent.
- Add curry, raisins, salt and pepper, cover and simmer on low heat until rice is finished or about 5 minutes.
- If rice pan is large enough, mix it around with a wooden spoon to losen then pour mixture in skillet over the top. If not, transfer rice and curry mix to a larger bowl.
- Mix well and enjoy.
