What's for supper?

Damn, you should taste my coconut and tomato and chicken pot.

If it weren't so much effort, I'd make it 3 times a week.

Recipe?

I've posted it numerous times. It looks just like the dish in KSINGH's post but without the chopped coriander.

Basically ... Fried onions.
Seared pieces of chicken (preferably thighs and drumsticks).
Chopped Peeled tomatoes (peeled by pouring boiling water over a large amount of tomatoes).
A masala mix to infuse into the chicken and the tomatoes.
Chicken stock (or any substitute you are happy with ... I sometimes just use a stock cube because the tomatoes have so much fluids that little extra fluids are necessary ... - - - some might say that my concoction might be too acidic because of the high tomato concentration ... but I am addicted to the strong tomato flavour).
A curry mix to infuse into the whole pot (powder or whatever you have)
A can of coconut milk poured in at the end to impart the exotic flavour.

I sometimes break down the tomato pieces with a stick blender ... but that's mainly for cosmetic purposes.

The whole dish is served on a bed of cous-cous.

The above is the best dish I can make. Yes, my talents are normal and limited.

EDIT: Let me just say that that after I ate and the remainder is still in the pot ... I can't stop ladling the curry "soup" down because it's so good.

Double EDIT: I can't make it tomorrow night (I've got a birthday party on) but I'm going to make it again on Friday night.

Triple EDIT: Here's an old pic. The "glazing" you see on top is just a little bit of real butter and olive oil and chicken fat that have risen to the surface.

Also ... you could remove the skin from the chicken flesh to make it a bit more healthy.

The above pic is after I've stuffed myself for much of the evening.

I am adding to a French loaf, cheese, tomato, hummus, avo, artichoke with perhaps some american potato salad.

Thanks man, will try my local tomorrow or the next day. Their sushi seems to be of a lot better quality than some of the sushi restaurants around.

Yeah I even prefer their sushi to some Sushi restaurants I've tried. This was Saturday.

^^ That's ****ing gorgeous!!!

I may sound like a homosexual ... but that is ****ing appealing.

It just needs a little bit of soy sauce and some pickled and preserved ginger ... yes I'm a shallow and commercial fool.

Looks epic.

Tonight is curry again. Leftover gravy from last night's chicken korma being transformed in the blender into a nice ringstinger with some tomatoes, ginger, chillis, beef stock, yoghurt, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, garam masala, curry leaves, and pureed onions, cooked with chunks of beef and served on mint and lemon basmati rice...
 
Early supper today.
Rib eye steak from checkers. Awesome value for 37 bucks.
Sides of steamed asparagus and a few pickled onions.

You didn't have enough oil in the pan when you cooked the steak. Hence the burning instead of the browning. When that happens, it creates very bitter compounds and the maillard reaction doesn't get to do its thing. More oil next time.

Also remember to add the oil just before putting the steak in the hot pan, otherwise you'll burn the oil...

It's actually the Moroccan spice rub that got burnt. But I did burn the oil in any case :)
