Mexican Bean Pie
I just wanted to warn people out there who may be as unsuspecting as I was: wear gloves while seeding the jalapeno! I was in intolerable agony for 3 hours because I seeded the jalapeno with my fingers. Fortunately I only got it on my fingers. I tried milk, sour cream, oil, alcohol, coffee grounds, vinegar, etc. I washed it off with dish soap. It just kept on burning...So USE GLOVES. The dish is good, it's hard for me to assess because I was thinking about the pain rather than the food, I would just leave the seeds in next time, and still use gloves.

Makhani Chicken (Indian Butter Chicken)
I am so happy to finally have made an Indian meal at home that actually tastes Indian. I made some modifications: I added about 1/2 tsp of coriander, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp curry powder, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper to the yogurt marinade. I cooked this in a large saucepan, sauteed a shallot and some white onion in peanut oil, then added the chicken mixture to only 1 cup tomato puree and 1 tbsp honey (nothing else in the third list). I simmered the mix over medium heat for 10 minutes, added 1/4 cup of ground cashews and 1/4 cup more yogurt then simmered for another 10 minutes.

Kashmiri-Style Kidney Beans with Turnips
Yummy! I had to stop myself from having a third helping of this! I didn't change anything. I love the turnips. It's easy, and healthy too. The cumin seeds were definitely worth the purchase. I will be making this again. Thank you.
