We Love Curry!

Curry dishes are some of our favorite items to serve at Ruchi.  The word curry refers to the preparation type that the cuisine undertakes.  There are several ways in which curry may be prepared.   In Telugu a dry curry is referred to as vepudu, in Tamil it is varuval. Gojju refers to a thicker consistency and pulusu  has the most liquidy or stew like consistency . Although they are treated differently, they are all considered curry. We love the complex combinations of spice and herbs such as clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, anise, bay leaf and more that create mouth watering dishes.  Ruchi is proud to serve a new meat and vegetarian curry dish every day for lunch. This week’s curry specials are:
