Curry, from Audrey

This may be a surprise, but as a small town Midwest girl, I did not grow up eating curry. I don't think I ever even tried curry, until I moved to Iowa and worked a woman who lived in New York City for decades.
I was just learning how to cook, and I wanted other dishes to try and make. I asked her what I should learn how to make and without hesitating, she said curry.
So I went online to try and find a recipe, and did not care for it.
After looking at the recipe I realized it was because it had the cursed ingredient of peas in it, so I've been on a mission to find a pea less curry I like, and I found 2 recipes I wanted to try, and this is the first one I gave a shot.

Ingredients

1 chicken breast
1 cup of flour
2 tbs of olive oil
1 cup of chicken broth
1 tps of mild curry
1 tps of strong curry
1 carrot, peeled and diced
1 onion, finely chopped
1 tbs of mango cutney
1/2 apple peeled, cored and sliced
Splash of coconut milk

Directions

Chop chicken breast into small pieces and cover in flour.
Fry in oil in a large skillet, until golden brown.
Once golden brown, add everything else: broth, curry, carrot, onion, mango, apple, and milk.
Let it soften then serve.

Changes I made!
My grocery store only has one level of curry, so it was just two tablespoons of whatever level of curry my grocery store had.
Also, I used the whole apple, skin on. The apple held on to its bite and added more color.

This recipe comes from Audrey at Home.

Penne alla Vodka

Spaghetti Carbonana

I love pasta, and I love mixing up how I serve pasta. I'm normally not a big spaghetti fan, might have to do with how Giada pronounces it on Food Network, not sure, but I really wanted to try this sauce. This recipe also has pancetta in it, which is my favorite addition to a good pasta dish. Ingredients 1 lb of spaghetti 2 tbs of olive oil 4 ounces of pancetta, chopped 4 large eggs 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan Salt and pepper for seasoning 3 tbs of parsley Directions Cook spaghetti according to packaging.
