The Magic Pantry

Tonight I cooked twice. I didn’t plan for that to happen… it just did. D. had gone shopping during the day, and bought enough to make lamb cutlets on a bed of fusilli with a garlic and wine tomato sauce (one of our favourites), and to make a hearty Indian curry. Curry is so much better the next day, so I thought “what the hey”, and prepped ingredients for both dishes, cooking both simultaneously, using all four burners on the stovetop and the oven. The lamb was sensational, washed down with a few brewskis, and the curry is cooling in the oven as I type. Most importantly of all, and something very necessary to my general well being and happiness – the kitchen is clean and tidy.
