Yum! I have never tasted Indian food ever. If you consider chicken curry Indian then that's about it.

I actually dream of visiting India someday. I'm sure I'll be happy because of the delicious food!

Great tips! We go through a lot of garlic here. Sometimes it can be such a pain to have to peel a lot of it. I've never had garlic that wasn't peeled. That is different to me. We will have to try it that way.

My mom doesn't really peel off the garlic. Because in our are we don't really chop the garlic but instead pound it using a mortar and pestle. It's a lot faster to do. Once you have pounded the garlic the peels loosen up on their own and you just have to pick them out of the way.

I usually pound mine with the knife like Medako said, then the skin just falls right off.

I do this too. It peels very easy after that
