Curry- A first attempt.

I tried to make some curried squash and chickpeas, but didn't really have the appropriate spices to make it work. It was an interesting first attempt, and I didn't get complaints from my diners, but I was not at all happy with the flavors. It turns out we tried to eat it before the squash was tender enough, so after letting it stew for another half an hour or so, the leftovers were much much better. I improvised a raita with low-fat plain yogurt, cucumbers, tomatoes, cilantro, mint, and lemon juice and it was delicious. That alone with the toasted whole-wheat pita probably would have been enough! We were so happy to feed Babs' pre-frosh from last year, Zoe.
