Photobucket

I had a day off from kitchen yesterday, yipiee finally sayangku cooked for our Friday brunch. Totally I’m not interfering on cooking, I have just help to cut and clean all vessels after finished. He said he will cooked something special, chicken kadai with vegetables and Yogurt curry. Yeah its real Indian food because cooked by Indian hehehhehe

He prepared two main dish, chicken kadai with vegetables and yogurt curry. Special yogurt curry only he could make perfect. Frankly I tried many times and was not successful. Yogurt curry needs extra attention, do not leave to boiled and we have to stir frequently with very low flame, otherwise yogurt has broken.

Chicken kadai it’s his version, he added some vegetables to increase the flavors and to get thick gravy. I can say both curries were fabulous! We enjoy our Friday brunch with a great menu and off course it’s really pleasant for me ;)
