Eats for Saturday 3/5/11

I bought some korma mix at the Farmer's Market the other day and decided to make it tonight. We heart Indian food and most of the other mixes we had tried were good. So, I whipped the korma up and put it over brown rice with a side of sauteed brussels sprouts.

Looks tasty, right?


Not so much.

When I took the first bite, it felt like my mouth was filled with sand. It was so gritty and thick, it was disgusting. MB and I couldn't even eat it.

We ate the brussels sprouts and ended up ordering Indian food from the take out place. I tried to order a couple samosas with some lentil soup. They were out of samosas. I tried to order palak paneer with some lentil soup. They were out of palak paneer.

I ended up just getting whatever the lady on the phone suggested because I was so frustrated. When MB came home, I had gotten a cup of lentil soup and some tikka masala paneer. I had never tried it before but it was delicious.

I ate all of it and saved the lentil soup for tomorrow's lunch.
