Sunday "lunch" Indian Feast cooked mostly by me

David is showing off his empty plate, emptied TWICE. The menu: chicken in tomato and spiced sauce with ginger, raisin chutney, red lentils, not sure how to spell dahl (?) made with onions, spices, tomatoes, coconut milk and lemon juice (very good) bitter greens, broccoli rabe and spinach pureed, a raita with red and yellow peppers, radishes and yogurt, chai, coconut cookies and mandarini for dessert. It was fun to cook and I was pleased everyone ate with relish.


Even Filippo admitted that just a few years ago he might not have been able to eat this meal, but he's showing just chicken bones left on his plate and he ate quite a bit of everything, even the greens.
