Hi, I've read that Bob likes to eat curry. Just wondering if there is a particular favourite from a cultural region (such as vindaloo) or if he is a lover of exotic food.
When in Africa, does he partake of (my favourite to cook) Morroccan couscous with vegetable tagine and whole baked fish in spices, (and sometimes fave' medamas on the side to give a windy lift to the evening...). Some of my Tuareg friends told me he is an honorary member of their tribe, and also welcome at the annual camel race near Timbuktu.
Or does he have any other specialties that are his own special favourite?
Has he ever tried Nasi Padang - Sumatera curries?
How do you Bob interact and relate to the cultures you have given so much of your time to support?
We greet guest with Shubat (fermented camel's milk) and Kumys (fermented mare's milk), then appetizers made of horseflesh or mutton - kazy, karta, shuzhuk, zhai, zhaya, sur-yet, kaburga..
it is girls and young women to pour the tea. they do this wonderfully though it is far from easy. guests' drinking bowls be always full
guests are treated with a kuyrdak made mostly of liver, kidneys, heart, lungs and tail's fat.
For main meal, lovely Beshparmak with Beet Kvas to drink very nice. pelvic bone and shin are given to elderly guests of honor, like Bob Geldof.
The most honoured guest, like Bob Geldof, is usually offered a koy-bas (a boiled sheep's head) cooked in a special way.
At end of the meal kumys is served, which is again followed by tea.
I look forward very much to inviting Bob Geldof to my home when he gets better and is able to play music.
The Tradition especially the "tea pouring" ritual is a beautiful one. I guess Bob is not a veggie then.
I personally am not a great meat eater, (I prefer to be friends with my animals) although I appreciate in some regions that this is practically all there is by way of natural sustenance, and thankfully many of these roam free range and are not brought up in slavery.
Boiling the sheeps head is using all the body parts and a great respect to the animal.
Do you have anything that might accompany the meat stuff besides the pouring girls? Rice? Cous cous? Some vegetables/leaves/nuts/berries?
If Bob is sick Ithink he should try some alternative herbal remedies. Ganja flower tea with Bretagi Volcano Bee Honey is a very good one. Or if it has to be sourced from Waitrose across from Picasso on Kings, then one large clove of garlic, 1 lemon whole, 3 dried lime kaffir leaves. Boil 20 mins and then sweeten with honey. Bitter but works well. I'll send him some Reiki/Spiritual Healing, poor man - he's over extended himself with all the adrenals.
I think Mrs Geldof wants to eat Bob, not Goulash...
But Hungarian does sound tasty, especially those Hungarian pancakes if cooked with fresh crabmeat (I'm a bit of a mermaid "fishy" lover) and instead of imported brandy, one of those concoctions from those "moonshine shacks" many of you seem to have hidden at the bottom of your gardens... Perhaps you could then take Bob for a Honey spa at the Hungarian Baths to improve his health. :)
