"stew some meat in a sauce made of chilies, garlic, cumin and coriander" -that sounds very tasty. But I think it'd be better if you added in some oatmeal.
Or maybe porridge oats would be better. (I mean, if it's oatmeal, is it really oats?)
There used to be Chinese Restaurants and Fish and Chip Shops. Nowadays round where I live most of the Fish and Chip Shops are run by Chinese owners and sell Chinese Food as well. Sometimes we call them Chinese Takaways, and sometimes Chippies. The tradition marches on. I think Chinese Chippies are folk; and Macdonalds is fake.
