Where did you have the souffle?

I simmered some chicken and shallots with some Patak's vindaloo curry paste, hand rolled some whole wheat flour dough into thick noodles and let them cook in the broth. This was Canadian-made "paratha" flour. Turned out good for a one-person meal. Veges? I'll have some tomorrow.

Last night I roasted a chicken, a fairly small 3+ pounder. Served it with a sauteed mushroom, white wine pan reduction, some rice with the nice, flavorful 'roasting rack' veggies [carrots and onion ] diced up and mixed in. Leftovers tonight, the chicken parts heated in an earthernware baking dish, basically a terrine. Whisked up a simple roux based chicken gravy to douse the bird bits and leftover rice mix.

I've said it before, I'm saying it now, I'm sure I'll say it again. Culinary wizardy, flamboyant presentation, exotic ingredients have their place but sometimes they just can't compare to a simple piece of chicken and an honest puddle of gravy.
