Pot Luck- Curry & Pickles

I made a big pot of Malaysian Chicken Curry for a friend's birthday pot luck. I'm so glad pot luck dinners are the 'in' thing, I'm attending THREE this month. So much nicer to eat at a home and enjoy good conversation with friends, and so much cheaper.

I was told BBQ ribs are from a guy behind Publix around 44/Biscayne Blvd. on west Dixie hwy?

Easy cucumber & tomato, red onion pickles go well with curries. Just add salt, rice wine vinegar and lime juice to taste. That's IT!

This curry always turns out well, I had to add more curry powder when it started cooking down. I could see it wasn't a deep red color. All about learning to adjust on the fly. Try this, it's SO EASY, I made the curry and pickles in 50 minutes. Just curry powder, cloves, cinnamon stick, onion, potatoes and tomatoes.

Yin and Yang Lunch

Yin and Yang Lunch: cold salad and spicy chicken curry...

Field greens, grape tomatoes, pickled cue & radishes

Reheated leftover Malaysian Chicken Curry and dipped with whole wheat toast (too hungry to reheat frozen paratha or chipati!) Think my mom wouldn't approve, Asians like to dip with white bread. You'll read about this in my post.

Last night, I packed this same curry for my hubby's lunch, added some stir fried veggies (leftovers for the veggie curry) and topped with a wok heated chipati. Also packed a tiny tub of pickled cue & radishes to balance the spiciness.
