Chicken Tikka Skewers


This is what we had for dinner last night, I marinated shorter than what the recipe says, but still taste as good ( because chicken taste good in many ways of cooking). Ellyn love it too, she had one skewer for dinner. From the cooking process she already waiting in the kitchen, maybe she smell the aroma of this dish, and makes her more hungry.

Anyway she love eating thou. She would eat any food i gave her, from Indonesian food with lots of spices (except chili) and rice, to simple western food ( sandwich perhaps), pasta, veggies. Oh she's my good girl.

by the way, I started to like coriander leave not long ago, after i had my baby of course, so i can try many Indian or Thai food which is call for coriander leaves. Basil plus coriander makes it unique taste, try it your self!.

About the picture, If i stuck with the setting idea, i just use my macro lens and make macro photo, looks good and simple, isn't it? most of all, so mouth watering... Yumm..
