Tandoori Thanksgiving

Traveling the world, we have lots to be thankful for. Our health, family, this opportunity to experience the unknown everyday, the fact we have made it this far! We realize that gorging ourselves on turkey and pies annually is a tradition unique to the States but old habits die hard so we tried to at least find some poultry for old times sake. We managed to find a nice tandoori place out of the tourist part of town and enjoy some chicken. Here is how we loosely translated the menu of one of America's favorite holidays into a delicious Indian lunch...

  • Turkey- Tandoori Chicken
  • Gravy- Marsala Curries
  • Stuffing- Chicken Biryani with Raita (That one is a bit of a stretch) 
  • Dinner Rolls- Nan Bread
  • Sparkling Apple Cider- Mango Juice
Not exactly the same but isn't the whole purpose of traveling to experience new things? If we wanted a good old fashion roast turkey (which believe me sometimes we do) we would have stayed in Vermont! Happy Holidays! 
Yum would the pilgrims approve?
