Crumb baked chicken

Sooo I prefer crumb baked chicken (fry if you want) to popcorn to go with a movie.

it's so simple!!

1. Beat one egg in a bowl. Add salt and pepper.
2. Take the skin and fat off chicken thighs/drumsticks whatever you prefer. Party wings are preferred.
3. Rub some cornflour on the surface of the pieces.
4. Dip in egg and coat 'em with breadcrumbs.
5. Either fry or bake at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
6. Turn sides. Continue baking for 10-15 minutes.
7. Squeeze lemon on top. Add cilantro if you want. Or lettuce by the side works too.

Don't forget the movie :)

Egg curry

Was craving curry. Its been some time you know.

1. Fry 4 tbsp of fresh ginger garlic paste in 2 tbsp of oil in a pressure cooker.
2. Add 1 chopped one medium onion and stir every 30 sec. Cook on medium flame.
3. Add salt.
4. Fry till onions turn transparent golden brown.
5. Add tomatoes in 1:1 ratio to onion or more. Not less - tastes terrible!
6. Stir stir. Make a paste. Cook for about 20 minutes. Boil 6 eggs by the side.
7. Blend the paste and add meat curry masala. Cook for another 10 minutes. Keep stirring all the while.
8. Add eggs and cook for 20 minutes. I wait till the steam smells nice enough :)
9. Add fine chopped cilantro and eat with whole wheat tortillas.

Enjoy!

Dill Salad

I moved 2 blocks away from Pike's market so I had to try some SALMON :)

There are 2 versions of this recipe - one with salmon and one that replaces it with red skinned potatoes. I have pictures of both too.

I made both. Here's how:

1. Boil about 3/4 packet of barilla's medium pasta shells
2. In the meantime bake 1 pound salmon or boil 1 pound red skinned potatoes
3. Chop a bunch of green onion, half a cucumber. Toss in a small can of sliced olives.
4. The recipe says to add 8 oz of sour cream and 8 oz of mayo. But I cut that quantity down by may be half.
5. Once the salmon/potatoes are done, mash them and add them to the mixture. Add the pasta. This dish is supposed to be served cold so rinse pasta with cold water before adding.
6. Add dill, salt and pepper.
