This curried chickpea terrine is simple to make, and the homemade curry powder adds an exotic flavour.

Keep the homemade curry powder in a jar with a good seal, it will keep for an extended period, and you can use it in many recipes.

Surrounding the house are nine (9) hectares of grapevines and Luberon villages (Apt, Saigon, Saint Saturnin les Apt and others) waiting to be explored.  These maison d’hôtes share a pool, and the hosts offer “cuisine sauvage” (natural, seasonal cooking) on demand. For larger groups, the entire property is available for rent.
