Beef Stew with Orange and Cinnamon
Delicious, delicious- one of my favorite stew recipes. Orange and cinnamon are synonymous with cold weather. I had some stew meat in the freezer. I took it out the night before and made the stew in no time. All you need is some chicken broth and red wine. I always have mushrooms in the fridge- my daughter loves them and they are super versatile. I decided to add them to the mix. I zested and juiced an orange and added a cinnamon stick. It is amazing what those flavors put together do to any dish- whether it is a sweet or savory dish.
The stew took no time to put together. It cooked on the stove for a good half an hour, forty minutes. You can cook it even longer, depending on the meat.
Everyone loved it- the only problem was that it finished in one sitting. Everyone wanted it the next day.

Greek Chicken with Potatoes & Feta
This dish was a big success. It was easy to put together, extremely delicious and it took not time to cook. Best of all, it is one-pot meal. I wanted to make the meal extra healthy so I roasted a couple bunches of asparagus on the side. I served my daughter some crusty bread on the side with the chicken and some asparagus. I ate it just with the asparagus and it was extremely satisfying.
I had a tray of chicken thighs and legs which I marinated in some garlic, olives, lemon juice and oregano- all the flavors I think of when Greek cuisine comes to mind.
I then cut up some tomatoes and potatoes, mixed it all together and had an amazing dinner. Some delicious red wine made it even better- enjoy!

Dhaniya Meat (Goat Meat Cooked in a Cilantro Sauce)
This is one of my all time favorite dishes-ever. I grew up eating this and learnt later my maternal grandfather used to enjoy it immensely as well. I love it for its simplicity and amazing flavor.
This is my first time making this delicious dish and realized how simple it is to make.
The dish is made with one of my favorite combinations- cilantro, onion, garlic and green onions. The mixture imparts amazing flavors and color. It is as simple as that.
If you are not able to find goat meat, use lamb, beef or chicken- the basic flavor will be the same. I introduced the dish to my daughter who love it. The taste brought me back to my childhood. I love how food invokes delicious memories…
Enjoy this dish…
