International Week at The Toliver's

Hope everyone is enjoying their week! This past week I felt a bit adventurous and thought I would try some of Ryan's favorite foods. The first recipe is Chicken Bryani, which is Ryan's favorite Indian dish.

I cut up chicken, bell peppers and added frozen pea's. The Briyani paste made the dish very spicy.
The chicken mixture was atop Basmati Rice, which is an Indian rice. It is skinnier and longer than regular white rice.

The meal is topped off with raita a cucumber yogurt sauce. The following night I made Beef Currry. I slow cooked cubed beef in yogurt, tomato sauce and beef broth.

I made an authentic Indian bread called naan. These dishes may be a little out there for many of you, but if you have not tried Indian food I recommend trying it at least one time. You may be surprised ;-)!
