Its the first Saturday of the month, and I am going back to an old habit of mine, by having a take-away. I used to do this every first Saturday years ago, and I'm not really sure why I stopped !
So, tonight its a Chicken Jalfrezi, with Coconut Rice ( terribly yummy on its own ! ) served with a Mushroom Curry, and a Bhindi Curry, which I have order in advance, as I am the only white man in the Village that likes it apparently !
Served with poppadoms and that bright green mint and cucumber raita.
I shall add some chopped banana.
I did a one pot with, new potatoes, red,green and yellow peppers, red onion, fennel, courgette, sweet potato tomatoes and salmon steaks that were marinated in a sauce of anchovy, capers, gherkin, sweet chilli sauce, olive oil and honey that was whizzed up in the processor.
Veggies baked in the oven for 50 minutes then salmon and marinade added for 20 minutes. Delicious.
Met a friend for her birthday drinks, then walked down road and found a little Indian restaurant. Had chicken jalfrezi, pilau rice, Bombay potatoes, Naan bread etc etc... was very lovely...
Roasted Salmon, topped with Waitrose's lemon pepper, lemon rind, thyme, a little chipotle pepper and olive oil, served with fresh tagliatelle and some steamed green veg.....wine not sure yet, either a Gavi di Gavi or a Fleurie.
