To refuse to eat this dinner?

I've been made curry with pasta...

Pasta doesn't do it for me at the best of times, except for lasagne - I always think pasta needs cheese because it's so bland ... I couldn't contemplate it with curry ever though

While A korma wouldn't be my first choice as I'm much more of a dahl girl I see nothing wrong with having it with pasta, it's not that different to rice.

Aww, your poor Mum. Eating it would surely be good korma? hits cymbal

Pasta is not too different from noodles - which are often served with curries. I dish up Thai Green Chicken Curry with Rice Noodles (or even Egg Noodles) fairly regularly.

I don't see the problem curry with pasta is loads better than rice!

It's like when DH and kids ask for chips with the Chinese takeaway - I know it's not horrendous but seems wrong to me that chips should go with it - I like foods to go together like they were meant to ... not many people I am assuming would eat Chinese with pasta

But 'curry' is essentially what you make of it. Arguably veg mixed with chicken in sauce could be a 'curry' and that would be fine to eat with pasta.

I don't understand the outrage.

In Wales, curries in pubs are often ordered with 'half and half' which Curry with Chips and Rice. (The first time I heard my Dad do it, I wondered what on earth he was talking about).

Dad also likes Lasagne with chips. I know this is a weird combination, but I have to confess to doing it here on occasion, to bulk out the lasagne if there's not quite enough to go around. DP loves it now, yet he'd never heard of it before.

I like curry with pasta! And on a jacket potato!

Isn't it just a differently spiced tomato or creamed based sauce?

Lasagne and chips isn't unusual.

which is

IT is where I live now, Purple - People look at me aghast when I mention it. (It does taste lovely though)

Curry and toast is great, and served all the time by my Asian family, which must make it ok

I also do a naan bread, chopped in half and toasted in the toaster.

Serve with Hienz mean beans, and cheese.

Amazing

Anything tastes nice on toast, Pooty . . .

Crinkle chips are the best to have with curry, the sauce sticks to the curves.

I would :). I've used pasta including penne, macaroni, etc. many a times as a substitute when I ran out of egg noodles when doing fried or soupy noodles. yum indeed.

My dad made curry with custard powder once. Can't possibly have been as bad as that. I asked Dad that his "experiments" were a sign of possible Alzheimer's Disease, and didn't get subjected to that again.

Chilli con carne and rice with soy sauce is lush.

lovely, it's called 'Fushion'...

fusion! Sorry dyslexia strikes!

Years ago my bf's face was when my mum served up curry with roast potatoes, no rice , just roasties.

I ventriloquisted 'just eat it'

One of the nicest curries I ever had was a result of defrosting two anonymous dishes from the freezer ,one was a hot pork curry and the other turned out to be lasagne,the pasta got broken on the pan as I defrosted it.I have never had the nerve to try and reproduce it.
