Will be making both of these recipes very soon. Just a “heads up” and a shopping list, if you want to join in on the fun…


Indian Cashew Chicken

shopping list:
2/3 cup cashews
1 single-serving container Greek-style yogurt
garam masala spice, if you don’t already have some
(or find out how to make your own here or here)
1 small knob fresh ginger
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 large onions
1 jar green cardamom pods, if you don’t already have some
1 bunch fresh cilantro (optional)

staples:
1 small can tomato paste
white vinegar
ground red pepper
2 garlic cloves
coriander
1 cinnamon stick
2 cups chicken broth
1 small can tomato puree or sauce
sweet paprika
salt
half-and-half


Indian Bread Pudding with Cardamom Sauce

shopping list:
1 small loaf white bread
(I realize this might be a “staple” for some folks, but I’m not one of them…)
1 can evaporated milk
1 jar of ground cardamom, if you don’t already have some
1 Tbsp finely chopped pistachios, if you don’t have some on hand
(I routinely keep them around for Hubby and Boy’s snack attacks.)

staples:
butter
cooking spray
sugar
eggs
milk (the recipe calls for whole milk)

Note: I’m planning to omit the optional rose-flower water, so I haven’t included that in the shopping list. If you want to be all flowery, go right ahead…

Not sure if I’ll be making these Saturday night or Sunday night; it depends upon how open-minded our Saturday night dinner guests are…
