Creating



I finally started a new weaving on my table loom. It is just plane weave with a dyed warp, but I think it is looking good.  I am planning on making bags with it when I am finished.

Curry Chicken



Ingredients

2 cups Jasmine rice
in 3 cups water

3 chicken breasts fat removed
2 tsps 5 spice
2 tsps curry powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 can coconut milk
salt and pepper


bring rice and water together to a boil then cover and lower temperature and simmer for 20 minutes

 In a sauce pan mix olive oil and curry powder, let simmer for 2-3 minutes then add can of coconut milk and reduce for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, cut chicken into thin strips, and coat with mixture of 5 spice, salt and pepper. In a pan with a small amount of olive oil, cook chicken strips until done,  about 7 minutes. Cover with curry sauce and simmer a little bit longer. Serve over rice. We had it with red wine and it was good.
