We've had such beautiful warm weather in Melbourne for the past couple of weeks, so we thought it would be nice to have a picnic. We should have guessed that Melbourne being Melbourne, the good weather is not likely to last. It was cold and windy and looked like the picture above. Melbourne's such a girl with its mood... oops, I mean weather swings. One can never get used to the weather here.
Regardless, we still had a good time with good food and wine. I made chicken tikka sandwiches with baby spinach and garlic yogurt sauce. Okay, so the chicken is meant to be more red rather than pink, but the only food colour I have at home is pink. Plus, pink's cooler! :)
Recipe:
- Chicken breast, cut into small pieces
- 2-3 tablespoons of yogurt
- 1 tablespoon of grated garlic and ginger
- 1 teaspoon of chilli powder
- 1 teaspoon of coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon of garam masala
- 1-2 teaspoons of chicken masala
- a couple of drops of food colour (optional)
I marinated it overnight, but a good 2-3 hours should be enough. I then stir-fried it and it's done!
