Last night was a success!



I really need nice plates, though.

It took seven hours, but the chicken tikka masala, chapati-like things, and rice all got done! I set the stove on fire while pan searing the chicken bits, then a few hours later, while we were frying the bread, the fire alarm went off. A random drill, wonderfully timed.

It tasted great, though! I think I added a little too much yogurt, so some of that will be replaced with just heavy cream next time. But the chicken was tender and flavorful, the sauce was spicy but not too much (and spice was easily added with hot paprika) so that everybody could eat it, and there was so much of it. Easily serves 8.

David and I ordered pizza tonight for dinner. XD

Thankies! I'm so proud of it! It's so hard to resist eating the leftovers, but I promised a girl who couldn't come to dinner that I'd bring her some.

This looks scrumptious. <3

By the way -- I'm going to be around campus for the next three days or so if I could bother you when I get my work done in your room.

I really hope you like it! :) It should be even better as leftovers, since the flavors have had extra time to meld.

Sure! I'll be in my room tomorrow between noon and 5-ish. :) Same on Tuesday.

That looks so delicious. I just finished dinner, but I'd eat that right now!

Thanks!

It's funny, but everybody responding over here thinks it looks delicious, and everybody on the forum I also posted it on thinks it looks like cat vomit. XD More responses over here, though, so.

Clearly the forumites don't appreciate a good Indian dish.

Yeah, I responded that I couldn't help how it looked, that's just the nature of the ingredients. Tomato and cream sauce over meat. :P
