Chicken Korma

I recently learned how to make this delicious meal. Here is my recipe. *note- it may sound unconventional to some Indian cooking enthusiasts, but it tastes great!

Chicken Korma:
Serves 2

Ingredients.

2 large chicken breasts, chopped into semi thin pieces
1 onion, finely chopped
2 Tbl spoons olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
Tumeric spice
Garam-Masala spice
Ground Cardamom spice
Curry powder
hot chili powder
Ground Cumin
Cinnamon
Ground coriander
3/4 cup of coconut milk


Using a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil at medium/high heat for approx. 1 min. Add the finely chopped onion and garlic and cook for about 2 min, constantly stirring to prevent burning. Then add the chicken pieces and cook everything for an additional 5 min, or until both sides of the chicken have hardly any pink left. liberally and equally spice the chicken with Tumeric, Garam-masala, and curry powder (about 1 tablespoon of each). Continue stirring and moving the chicken. Add then a slight sprinkle (1 teaspoon) of cardamom, hot Chili powder, and ground Cumin. Stir the chicken until the spices are evenly distributed, but not for longer than 3 min. Add the 3/4 cup of coconut milk and stir. Once the coconut milk has been distributed and its of an orange color (no more white), add a second wave of the above mentioned spices: Tumeric, Garam-masala, and curry powder (about 1 tablespoon of each) and a slight sprinkle (1 teaspoon) of cardamom, hot Chili powder, and ground Cumin. Stir all of the spices in with the mixture. Now add a dash of ground coriander, and cinnamon. Stir and cover for appox 7-10 min on a medium heat. You will want to stir it a few times after covering to avoid The sides from burning. After the 7-10 minutes and the sauce has thickened it is ready to be removed from heat and served with basmati rice.

West coast rox

Here's a short video I found today on dubstepforum.com documenting some of the more popular electronic music in city areas of California, more specifically LA and San Francisco. It focuses mostly on the kinda glitch bass (?) stuff out now ala flying lotus to the more dubstep defined genres. Mary Anne Hobbs's presence is strongly felt in the video, the film makers likely took advantage of her drop in not too long ago. It's great to see this genre thriving and evolving with the US and it not just being a UK dominated thing (drum and bass, jungle); and as the video explains,the west coast definitely created a feel all their own. I could only hope other cities evolve and merge with the music in the same ways. As for the midwest,Chicago has gotten me pretty excited lately. Anyone that was at Smartbar for Caspa's show last month knows what I mean...

Anyway, heres the video:

Rough it out...

I must admit, Twitter has really impressed me over the past few days. Upon first signing up, it looked like little more than the status update feature on Facebook or Myspace. Today alone I've been followed by several organizations supplying information on various work abroad programs, volunteer work, as well as copious amounts of networking connections in relation to the global realm. One such group "One world 365" http://www.oneworld365.org
looks to be very promising. I'll likely be involved in it more and more in the future in regard to networking and such.

This is the beginning, and being my first post in this blog, I'd like to present this video I found on youtube a while back. Open your mind and experience how small we really are! Yeah, it has a few typos, but you get the picture.
