In most of my posts I have been recommending pairing dishes with naan. Couple days ago I decided to attempt to make some from scratch instead of using store bought. I came across the recipe in indiansimmer (I highly recommend following this blog-beautiful pictures and variety of Indian recipes). I followed her naan recipe but I was light handed with cumin and salt, therefore, mine turn out pretty bland.

I am going to attempt to make this again very soon, and I will re-post the results, but in the meantime if you are interested in the recipe go here.

Over the last couple of weeks I have made several items. However, it turns out that I have a heavy hand when it comes to spices, especially salt. Couple days ago I made minced beef curry, and it was so so salty that even when I made second batch without a pinch of salt it still would not offset the salt when combined. It is safe to say it was not a pleasant dinner.

I need to learn balance between the spices and rice/curry. I think at this stage I need to follow recipes to the tee, and hopefully in the near future I will be able to deviate, and tweak the recipe here and there. Fingers-crossed.
