Added sauteed onion, garlic (out of ginger), cardamom, coriander, cinnamon, turmeric, bay leaves, garam masala, chicken stock and marinated chicken.

 

Wtf


Made me look twice lol

 

I'm now near critical completion... Soon will be the family's determination of failure lol.

Normally, I'm pretty awesome at curry, but I didn't realise how much of our base ingredients were gone. No whole garlic, tiny sweet onions, no ginger, no cumin and no tomato paste. Hopefully custom works. Added the saffron soaked whole milk to the basmati rice and finishing off the chicken stuff

 

How did it all come out?

 

Letting the rice absorb the milk/saffron mix, sauce flavor is light on taste, heavy in smell. Overall okay, but I'll let the wife make the determination lol.

 

Plated....

 

Looks pretty tasty to me.

 

It was a huge success. Wife and six-year-old ate two bowls (3/4) of what I made. Whew!

 

Quoting myself, but I just finished their bowl, and it was a creamy chicken curry with flavorful rice. Came out surprisingly good.

 

It darn sure looks it. Nice work there.

 

Thanks, I was worried without the Asian "Holy Trinity" of garlic, ginger and chile.

 

Good job

 

Shiner time

 

I was worried missing about 50% of the ingredients for masala, luckily I could wing a light yellow curry.

 

Already there lol. I'm hoping to get my new Lodge skillet broken-in before my next calling trip. I picked up a well-used Lodge 10" shallow skillet in Colorado, so I need my new one to smooth out a little. I also need to do some baking with my new production, huge Lodge Dutch oven.

 

Cook bacon every morning and you will get it

 

Bacon was what started getting that skillet squared away lol. I guess I'll have to up my bacon quota for the cast iron Dutch oven. I'm thinking a fire cooked pork roast would be cooler, though. I need to up my Dutch oven skills.
