Bangladeshi White Chicken Korma
admin February 23, 2011 No Comments Adventures in the Kitchen, Favorites, Main dishes, N's Diet (high-protein, low-carb)
This was freaking fantastic. However, having somebody else cut up the chicken (or just using quarters/breasts) would probably help. If you have a whole chicken to work with though, cut it up! Note, you probably want to have as wide of a pan/pot to cook this in, so you’re not trying to cycle the chicken […]

Yellow Basmati Rice with Sesame Seeds
admin February 23, 2011 No Comments Adventures in the Kitchen, N's Diet (high-protein, low-carb), Side Dishes
A good, basic, rice. The split-peas don’t really work, so I may leave them out next time. Only down-side is the 30 minute prep on the rice, but you can do that while making other dishes. 2 cups basmati rice 2 tbsp olive or canola oil 1 dried hot red chili 1 tsp urad dal […]

Ground Meat with Potatoes
admin February 15, 2011 No Comments Adventures in the Kitchen, Main dishes, N's Diet (high-protein, low-carb)
Adapted from At Home with Madhur Jaffrey. Not particularly intensely flavored, but again the boys really liked it. It makes a LOT — at least a couple of meals’ worth, if not more. 3 T olive/canola oil 2 cinnamon sticks 1 onion, finely chopped 1 t finely grated peeled fresh ginger (microplanes rule) 3 cloves […]
Spicy chickpeas with potatoes
admin February 15, 2011 No Comments Adventures in the Kitchen, Main dishes, N's Diet (high-protein, low-carb)
From At Home With Madhur Jaffrey. I found it fairly bland, but that’s undoubtedly because I didn’t use a really spicy cayenne. The boys LOVED it. 2 T ground coriander 2 t cumin 1/2 t cayenne 1/2 t turmeric 4 T olive/canola oil 1/2 C finely chopped red onions or shallots 2 t finely grated […]
