      I don’t think I’ve ever bought lychees, at least not in Australia. They just aren’t on my radar at all. Do you normally put them in the curry itself, or serve them as an accompaniment?

        I just throw them in at the end with the pineapple.

        A few years I had a duck curry at a place in Queenscliff that threw them in and though it was a nice little addition.

      But global warming means you’ll be able to grow your own lychee before shit really hits the fan?

      I actually had a Thai red duck curry last night at a restaurant and there was a notable lack of lychee. Now I understand why.

      Wow! Who would have thought that tin in the back of my cupboard would be in demand.
