Dinner

[davidn]

Tonight, I put together a chicken korma, with an imported Patak's simmer sauce and rice boiled in stock for some added flavour.



Absolutely nothing remarkable happened at all.

Now go away.

But how did it taste?

Probably as intended. I mean, even for someone with a knack for cooking mishaps, it's pretty hard to mess up what appears to be rice-with-stuff-on-it unless you do something horrible to the stuff part.

You could overcook the rice which would make it soggy. the rice does appear to be glistening so maybe was waterlogged.

Somehow I'm disappointed. :P It feels like... watching an episode of Top Gear where everyone's sensible and polite about all the cars and no-one blows anything up. :P

On the other hand, I'm glad you could have a meal where you don't have to risk your life. You give a little, you get a little, I guess. :P

D.F.

Don't diminish my achievement of survival! This was chicken in simmer sauce, cut off the bone with a sharp implement and everything.

It tasted fine, in a way that only Indian sauces imported from Britain can.

Look Mr. Grossman, this was all perfectly all right - the rice that we have around just now does have a tendency to come out slightly... damper than normal (and I do mean slightly), but I think that considering the source, this is a more than competent meal!

Ah, well, in that case, congratulations for having survived.

Where's the veg? THIS WILL RESULT IN SCURVY I TELL YOU.

[davidn]

There are tomatoes and onions in the sauce! And chicken isn't a red meat, so it's probably close enough too.

There is something you messed up - you forgot to put tomato sauce/ketchup on top!

A sharp implement! In addition, chicken has this nasty habit of exploding destructively when not handled with care.

[davidn]

It's the most dangerous meal I've had in a long time.

Well at least you don't have any black bits in the rice.

Nice work! :D

...I just had to say something. Here's hoping for more unremarkable dinners!
