Turkey Curry for dinner... a change from the common Thanksgiving Dinner :)
Thanksgiving and I am working today and did not go to any thanksgiving dinner, but in the spirit of thanksgiving decided to cook a turkey dish variation.. Turkey Curry. Turkey is pretty dry and not as flexible as chicken in cooking. Got some strips of turkey breast, fried them out with salt, pepper and thyme. After that, simmered some pearl onions, tomatoes, garlic, thyme and curry and let it simmer with to a thick sauce before adding the cooked turkey and potatoes and the result is in the pic..

Posterous inspired Lunch - Ramen Noodles with Sunny Side Up Eggs and Spam..
In my daily posterous email today, one of the people I subscribe to had posted a picture of what she made for lunch (http://piggie.posterous.com/lazy-saturday-15). Ramen noodles with sunny side up egg on top (and spam that she did not have available at that time). I had spam, egg and Ramen and I made the same dish and indeed it was delicious !

What i cooked for the mauritian picnic.. Tuna pastries...
We have this Mauritian picnic in the bay area every summer (there are some 30 or so Mauritians living in the San Francisco bay area) and as usual, its a pot luck and we have to cook something kind of mauritian'ish.
I thought of something easy, yet mauritianish and I decided to try to make something similar to the pate we have in Mauritius - popular french pastry sold at every bakery in Mauritius. I did not really have all the time and ingredients (mille feuilles) to make pate.
I improvised by using biscuit dough rather than mille feuilles. popped a can of the biscuit dough, a can of tuna, added thyme, onions, cilantro to the tuna and then just filled the dough with it. Baked at 400 for 10 mins and the results are in the pictures.
