Recipe reminder

Have you seen my recipe for a " quiche "? I have done it recently and I though to remind you of this easy and tasty solution for a starter. This version is with feta, tomatoes and ham cubes and some grated yellow cheese. But you can use whatever you have in the fridge in general... Especially for John that tried it and liked it :)

Chicken curry

I will share with you my favorite chicken curry recipe that a dear friend of mine has given me years ago. It had been quite some time that I did not do it, as my kids where pretty young and such recipes were too exotic for them. Thanks to an indian friend that brought me recently some of the ingredients, I decided that it was time to indulge myself. Not a bad idea, as kids really liked it, and it was a nice change. I serve the chicken with some basmati rice and the trip to India starts... (ok with some chinese touch :)
