All you lucky people with Trader Joes can find the perfect one to go with that spicey dish. If you insist on wine, an off-dry Riesling should do the trick. I vote for the beer.

As to what to pair with them, now there's a kicker. But Trader Joe's being Trader Joe's, I'd go for one of their cheap six-packs of beer from (choose: El Salvador, Slovakia, Argentina, Mexico). - wolfgang Tyler, these little packets of Indian crack are delicious!

What about a sparkling moscato or any other off dry sparkling wine ? A nice medium dry rose ? Another wine that we had with Thai food could also work here - Paringa Sparkling Shiraz. It's got some sweetness and served chilled, it was amazing with spicy thai food. Rich and Spicy Indian foods ? What about a sparkling moscato or any other off dry sparkling wine ?

Riesling, Sav. Blanc, or Loire whites would cut through the thick flavors of Indian foods and provide a nice juxtaposition. That’s not an impossible food-wine pairing. Riesling, Sav.

But they pale compared to the TJ's Thai curried tuna dishes (Green, Red and Yellow are all spectacular and sell for the astounding price of around $1.29). Anyway, even as a committed oenophile, I'm afraid that the only good wine I've found to have with any of these is beer. ;-) I am a huge fan of all of the TJ Indian dishes.
