4 east recipes

A buttery, brown sugar tube cake loaded with four cups of chopped pecans and a hint of coffee. Baked low and slow for a tender crumb that's pure East Texas pride.

Curry-spiced chicken simmered with whole tomatoes, green pepper, and plump raisins for a sweet-savory weeknight dinner. Served over rice and ready in under an hour.

I have never tried a fish curry before until today. It was delicious. We used roasted chili curry to add some spiciness, and served it with rice that soaked up all the yummy sauce. Definitely recommend this recipe to anyone who likes a good Indian dish.

Kolkata-style curried salmon simmered with whole spices, yogurt, and mustard, served over crisp-tender steamed vegetables. Fragrant with cardamom, cloves, and fresh ginger.
