Ingredients: 1 tbsp tomato paste 0.75 cup plain yogurt 1.5 tsp garam masala 0.5 tsp cumin seeds 1 tsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp ginger powder 1.5 tsp chili powder 1.5lb chicken breast 2 medium onions sliced 2 tbsp ghee 1 inch cinnamon 4 green cardamoms cilantro Cut chicken in strips and marinate with tomato paste, yogurt, garam masala powder, cumin seeds, garlic, ginger and chili powder. Heat oil and fry sliced onions to make them brown and crispy. Remove onions, cool and crush. Reheat the oil and and add back the crushed fried onions. Add chicken to the onion fried oil and stir fry for a few minutes. Stir until cooked. If needed add little water. Separately take some ghee and add cinnamon and cardamom to the ghee. Julienne green chilies and chop cilantro. Add the ghee, cilantro and the chilies to the chicken. Cover and let sit for sometime to let the aroma blend in.

Moms Pudding when I was young.

This is one desert I remember mom making when I was young. She had no time, this was simple and we absolutely loved it. I collected the recipe a decade later from Aneeqa. Yet to try but when I do try it, I'll upload the photo. You need: 3 eggs, one can condensed milk, one can evaporated milk, some sugar and a round dish. Mix 3 eggs, one can condensed milk, one can evaporated milk Blend very well... preferably with mixer. Make caramel by melting sugar and pouring into round dish or making it on the round dish. When this cools, pour in the egg mix. Bake in water bath 350F for 40mins. Cool in fridge. Plop it onto a the serving plate. dont get scared if caramel cracks :).
