Shan Yakhni pulav masala

Yakhni pulav used to be one of my favorite dishes as a child. I saw the shan punjabi yakhni pulao masala and decided to try it out and it came out pretty good. I tried it with chicken instead of beef or mutton. All one needs to do is follow the instructions on the packet.

Theres a video on youtube for making yakhni pulav using shan yakhni pulav masala

The thing i did different was not strain out the spices from the stock but in hind sight i think it is better to strain out the spices. Personally, since i love the peppercorns i would put them back in. Definitely worth trying for first timers like me wanting to replicate the taste of yakhni pulav!

Manchu Wok, Stonebriar mall, Frisco, TX

I made the mistake of ordering from Manchu Wok. I ordered chicken egg rolls, kung pao chicken, fried rice and jalapeno chicken. The egg roll was raw and the chicken pieces were too big.

Central market, Plano, TX

The other day we went here to grab a quick bite before catching up on a movie. Its a pretty decent place and one can choose what one wants to eat from a variety of food and pay for it and heat it up in the microwave. The price is pretty expensive. A friend said that was the best meatballs they had ever tasted. 320 Coit Road Plano, TX 75075-5712

And it has been an excruciatingly long time since I last blogged. So, here we go with a delicious solution as I am cooking. Tandoori chicken on Kamodo Joe. I won't do the "pure version" of doing everything from scratch. Instead, a quick path to food you'd like to make again. This is a result of at least 3 experiments so far..
