I thought you septics used that term for Indonesia or sometimes for Thailand/Malaysian/Indonesia (which region incidentally has several different cuisines). But aloo palak isn't from that part of the world at all. All aloos (potato based dishes) are "real" Indian dishes from the Indian subcontinent. Aloo is the Hindi word for potato, patak is Hindi for spinach. More specifically they are generally northern Indian (Punjab/Kashmir/Rajisthan) which has very different food to southern India. -- Stuart _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com The information in this e-mail is confidential and may also be legally privileged.
