    Sharing Our Family Recipes

    Dan Toombs, The Curry Guy

    Hey, I'm Dan!

    I'm the author of The Curry Guy cookbook series and blog. I love bold flavors from around the world! This blog features my favorite recipes from Europe, the Mediterranean, America and Latin America. Some I've been making since childhood. Enjoy!

    Hey, I'm Caroline!

    As Dan's wife, I've spent the last 10 years helping him perfect hundreds of spicy recipes. We've had so much fun and now want to share our favorite non-curry dishes. I'll be focusing on recipes I've loved and recreated from Spain, France and across Europe. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
