take some photos! I love seeing what people make and that stuff sounds great!I've done two big meals in the last week. One was for my sister in law and her new boyfriend which was a Chicken Pasanda, Lamb Shashlik and Tarka Dal. My shashlik is always 48 hours marinaded, minimum and tastes amazing. The Pasanda was super creamy and had a really refreshing tang from the yogurt and the Dal was super spicy and buttery because I loaded it up with cumin and mustard seeds deep fried in gee just before serving. I've given up on Indian restaurants, I'm better than they are.
Second big meal was a Chinese. I cooked crispy chilli beef which came out really nice and tender alongside a sesame chicken. The chicken was cornfloured, egg drenched then rolled in a flour and spice mix. It came out ultra crispy then got tossed in a reduced maple syrup (for I lacked honey) and sesame seed sauce to make it sticky. Tons of rice, hot prawn crackers and fried seaweed (which is Kale for those who don't know) finished that off. Chinese restaurants can also go fuck themselves.
I've also cooked a few roast dinners and things because it's gotten cold here the last few weeks. I think this week it's time for one of my legendary winter hotpots.
