Curried Steak


So yeah this is what I had tonight for dinner, my fusion meal Curried Veal Steak, NOW steak and curry has no combination for sure as curry belongs to Indian cuisine and steak (eating, serving, selling, whatever) is completely banned in India. (NOW cows roam around stray in India, causing accidents, living worst life on streets, eating from garbage and dying horrible deaths, but ever touch them for eating or any other purpose, authorities will bug you like bloodhounds, *f word* dumbheads, NOW HUSH I DIDNT SAY ANY OF THIS) Anyways here is this beautiful Veal Steak which I prefer than Beef as it is healthier, tender and lean meat. I've just marinated that in spices, sealed and cooked with veggies.

Here we go
Any sized steak/cutlet/chop
Marinade (pinch of turmeric, salt, pepper, hot curry powder, vinegar, olive oil)
Veggies of your choice (I've only used 1 onion, 1/3 can diced tomato, few cloves of garlic and 2 carrots)
Oil for cooking
salt, pepper
1 tsp hot curry powder
dash of vinegar

1. Now first of all just marinate the steak and keep in fridge for 3-4 hours.
2. Heat some oil in frying pan and brown the steak on both sides, take it out, add chopped onions, garlic, tomato and carrots. Stir well.
3. Add salt, pepper, vinegar and curry powder, mix well and put the steak back in.
4. Cover the pan and simmer for atleast an hour, or till the steak is tender.

Honey Garlic n Soy Chicken


Hello there folks it's been so long I posted something here. And as my sister insisted recently, I'm posting here again :) Well today I've cooked something Chinese- Honey garlic n soy chicken. Now as life gets busy you can't really get enough time for fun stuff. I must apologize I haven't cooked this chicken from scratch, as I'm working as Assistant Chef in a local nursing home and also in an Indian Restaurant and being in this profession is physically quite tough, so it's quite tempting to just sit and relax than standing in kitchen for long. Now getting back to the recipe, I've only used Honey garlic n soy marinade from supermarket, BUT YES if you cook from scratch, it's gonna taste much better ;)

Stuff needed,,

250-300 gm diced chicken
pinch of salt n black pepper
honey garlic n soy marinade (enough to coat the chicken pieces)
1-2 tb sesame oil

1. Marinate chicken pieces and keep in fridge for almost an hour. Heat sesame oil in a wok and add chicken.
2. Cook the pieces on high flame until they turn slightly golden brown, lower down the flame and keep cooking till they are tender. Add salt and pepper.
3. Serve hot with bread or rice..

Oh well that was quite easy, but if you wish to cook from scratch then just marinate chicken in soy sauce, honey and crushed garlic.
