Hi Liz,
I actually tasted my first curry fries in Belgium. I enjoyed it a lot that's why I tried to recreate this dish.
Chips and curry are a popular dish in some parts of the UK. It's good to know from your recipe how to make it.
If I keep reading your great recipes, I will put on a ton of weight --- but it will be worth it.
This sounds really nice, I'll have to try this recipe. I'll pass this on to my friend as she is Irish. She'd like this, I think. =)
