Chicken Makhani (Indian Butter Chicken)

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2005

Very good and *nearly* authentic. Good flavour. I always add coconut milk to this recipe to cut the sharp tangy flavour out. I use honey flavoured yogurt as well. I add more cayenne as well. Something is missing though. I will try marinating the chicken and using ghee.

Angel's Old Fashioned Beef Stew

Reviewed: Apr. 16, 2003

This turned out perfectly! I was in a rush so I throughly browned the meat. I can't get canned stock over here so I used cubes and enough water to cover. Turned out wonderfully! Will definitely use again!!

Spanish Rice Bake

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2003

Mmmm, this was really yummy. I've made it twice now. I did not use the sugar, tho... I haven't had a chance to buy brown sugar since moving. I did add some extra spices like oregano and some seasoning salt to the meat. It is good, thanks for the recipe!!!

Owen's Mozzarella and Tomato Salad

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2003

This is a very fresh and extremely easy salad. It was excellent. I do agree with the other reviewer who said to add balsamic vinegar, it makes it yummier. I highly recommend this for a quick and delicious salad!

Very much like my Maman's recipe. It's so simple and tasty. You can add rice to it for substance. :)

Italian Spaghetti Sauce with Meatballs

Reviewed: Jan. 15, 2002

This is great recipe. I would suggest maybe adding some spice to the meatballs though. I used pre-made bread crumbs... no problem - worked like a charm. Very good recipe. Kudos.

Cooking Light magazine's Indian Chicken Curry

Reviewed: Jan. 9, 2002

Mmmm... this recipe was soo good. Be more liberal with the spices though, when I tasted it initally it needed more curry and I dashed more of all the spices. Very good. Definitely a keeper!!!!
