Goanese Stew/curry
Can anybody remember the name of the Goanese stew that was always simmering on the galley stove?
I have been racking my brains for weeks but to no avail,

Curry/Stew.
Hi. I was on the Oriana back in the 6Os, and the Go-go's used to cook a curry up called Chow-Chow, and it was great. I have tried to copy it, but cannot get it just like the ones that they cooked. Take care.... Terry

If we found any flying fish on D deck, they ended up with the Goanese, not sure if they ended up in the curry.

Re: Goanese Stew/curry
I worked on the Himalaya in 1972 and we always called it Goanese chow pot.
