No longer my favorite

Currently: EW.

Coming home from travel often means a return to comfort food (once I can stomach restaurant food again), and in my area, that means Indian! Bangain bharta, smoked eggplant, is one of my favorite dishes and it has been reliably at good several of the local Indian restaurants. This particular homecoming, however, was less than...welcoming.

This is the grease I decanted off of a pint container of bangain bharta. Notice that the vessel it is in now is a quart container, which is twice as big.

Oh, snap, that's disgusting. The whole point of eating restaurant food is so the fats and sodium and other delicious ingredients are hidden or disguised. I don't think I'll have a craving for Minerva for awhile...
