There’s a story behind tonight’s dinner, but I’m not capable of explaining it right now. Suffice it to say, this was DW’s Birthday Dinner, but all the day long, I was clueless


It’s dreadful getting old.

Musakhan for dinner tonight - chicken, some spices, heavy on the sumac, plus red onion, placed over a (scant) bed of (wet) pita chips - in lieu of pita - and baked.

YES :heart_eyes: So easy, so delicious! Wetting the pita chips slightly worked well - they didn’t burn, softened enough with the juices under the chicken, and re-crisped around the edges.

This was what I really wanted to eat when I made that Milk Street version a few weeks ago.

Cooked only half, because it tastes better (to me) fresh, right out of the oven, with the mixed textures of pita .

Plus the rest of yesterday’s asparagus with more romesco.

Hopefully, hubby is in town and can help with the household duties and let you recuperate!

Feel better.

My brother shocked the hell out of me when he called to wish me a happy birthday last year. For the first time. In decades. Turns out he programmed his phone to give him alerts. Might be worth looking into? Less painful than tattooing the date somewhere discrete

I thought it was quite tasty! But- i’ve actually not had it at a restaurant before, seems to have dairy in it usually (well ghee anyhow, any that kills me). It’s not spicy at all

I love how HO teaches me etiquette, it’s like getting a phone call from my mother.
