I know some parts of US have some empty shelves, but for the most part here
where I live, you’d not know there’s a pandemic.
It’s pretty much moved into endemic stage here…
Shelves 98% stocked.
We’re planning to have Mardi Gras again at this point.
I need to go hit Costco…
I’ve not been grocery shopping since flying to Moms for Christmas…
But I do have a veggie box delivery tomorrow, along with new puppy!!
:)

We have a wholesaler just down the road where I buy a lot of my meat. Lamb
fillets for $32 a kilo is pretty good value.

Yeah we are not shopping in supermarkets at the moment and have had no
problems at all getting meat, veg or anything else.

Yes covid…There are shortages at the plants and logistics issues so also
shortages of fruit and veg. However, your local greengrocer is generally ok,
or those who purchase at the markets. It’s mostly the big supermarkets that
have the issues.

I used Coconut Cream (all I had to hand), but over did the water and
consequently spent some time reducing the liquid…
Chicken is in short supply here at the moment, so will have another bash at
it in a week or two.

Hi Justin, glad you tried it. Can understand your not having coconut oil or
coconut vinegar….not something we use often and I had never heard of coconut
vinegar till Susan mentioned it, I used rice wine vinegar for my second
attempt as had run out of just plain old white vinegar which I used first go
and that tasted better actually, Next time am going to try coconut milk as
really do enjoy this dish. Wish I could source fresh bay leaves. Had such a
hard time finding dried ones today at several stores.

Hi Vicki,
I forgot I have her cookbook and did this on Tuesday night. Sadly it didn’t
look anything like the picture (hence I didn’t mention it before). I also
didn’t have any coconut oil or vinegar, so had to substitute (white rice
vinegar).
Everyone like the flavor, but I did some rookie mistakes…

Found this version I had saved, in case anyone is interested. Posting in full
because it's from the New York Times and probably behind a paywall. It was
very popular with commenters, with thousands of 5-star ratings. I love how
you can get amazing flavours from just a few simple ingredients!
Vicki. :-)
