I need to either figure out what week we've on or give up trying!

Last night was Chicken Korma, from the Food Network Cookbook (Thanks, again, Pam!!). It was acutally turkey, since I couldn't find ground chicken (although, admittedly, I didn't look very hard!). It started out with sauteed purple onion, to which was added a spice paste of pureed chopped red onion, minced onion, thin-sliced fresh ginger, cumin, coriander and water. That was reduced until dry, then the chicken (turkey) was added and cooked until opaque. Green peas and chopped cilantro were added until heated through, then plain yogurt. This was served on toasted pita rounds and garnished with fresh cilantro, plain yogurt and cashews. With all the spices involved, I was expecting an amazing, super flavorful dish here! It was just okay - very edible, good even, but just okay. Tasty, but a little bland. It was really quick to throw together, though.

Next week: Texas Chili and cornbread! Yum!

Til next time!
