Curry Chicken and Safron Pullao

From "My Indian Kitchen" classic recipe book. Pretty good, except we did not have chipatis and the saffron was stronger than either of us are used to.

Char grilled steak

It's not a lie. Char grilled foods are good. I made pepper steak tacos with a spicy salsa from my new Weber grilling book. It was made from skirt steak. I splurged and bought it from Whole Foods. It was an impressive cut of meat. I then charred it over charcoal and hickory chunks, warming the tortillas in foil on the cool side of the grill. Two big thumbs up.
