Inle Lake lamb curry

Heavenly lamb dumplings in a punchy tomato sauce - sort of mum’s meatballs go comfortably into Asia. I scoffed it daily on Inle Lake: a vast tract of water that supports various villages around its shores - on land, and on stilts, complete with floating gardens. The villagers lead the Life of Pi, on the water with their livestock. Fish plop, dragonflies hum, and insects buzz all day long around waters dappled with Hockney squiggles and abstractions aplenty. The place of escape. Mick Jagger
