Herbs & Spices

This dish was inspired by one of cookbook author Madhur Jaffrey’s lamb curries.

This recipe makes enough sauce for 8 chickens. Refrigerate leftover sauce for up to 2 weeks.

Roasting the garlic in its skin mellows and sweetens its flavor; to remove the cloves, squeeze them with your fingers or press on the cloves with a butter knife.

Red onions, cut at an angle, form a V-shaped roasting rack for the chicken.

For a side dish, try basmati rice cooked with a pinch of saffron.

Serve this dish with arugula, tomatoes, blanched green beans, and crumbled Parmesan cheese tossed with extra-virgin olive oil and vinegar.

Brine-curing the pork makes it soft, tender, and juicy. The pork is cut into small pieces, so it only needs to be cured for 4 hours.

Brush on fish, chicken, and burgers.
