All-Beef Texas Chili
Texas-style all-beef chili with cubed chuck, beer, toasted cumin seeds, and no beans. Simmered low for 90 minutes and thickened with masa harina the authentic way.
Balti Masala Spice Mix
A fragrant homemade Balti spice blend built from toasted coriander, cumin, cassia bark, fennel, black mustard seeds, cloves, and cardamom. Use it dry in curries or mix it into Balti masala paste for the real deal.
Usal (A Mung-Bean Curry)
Usal is a spiced Indian mung bean curry with cumin, turmeric, coriander, ginger, and garlic simmered in tomato. Vegetarian, high-protein, and ready in 40 minutes. Serve with rice or flatbread.
Berbere Sauce
Toast whole spices until smoky, grind with dried chilies and aromatics, then blend with oil and wine for a thick Ethiopian berbere paste that clings to meats and vegetables.
Chicken Dopiaza (Chicken in a fried Onion Sauce)
This is not called chicken dopiaza by M. Jaffrey. But last night I was at my favorite Indian restaurant here and I asked the owner what chicken dopiaza was and he told me it was this.
Black Beans in Spicy Tamarind Sauce
Smoky black beans simmered in tangy tamarind sauce with cumin, ginger, garlic, and garam masala. This hearty Indian-spiced side is vegan, protein-packed, and loaded with warmth from turmeric and red chile.
Spicy Whole Mung (or lentil) Beans
I made this dish and thought it was too bland. I made it again, doubling all the Indian spices, and it came out much better.
Headquarters Chili- Marlboro
I've been making Headquarters Chili since before leaving Philly for Vegas in 1991. I use turkey meat, sometimes over rice, sometimes as Sloppy Joes, sometimes as a Tamale Pie. Traditionally I make it for Presidents' Day, but this year I'm doing it for Super Bowl Sunday. It keeps me off the Vegas Strip that replaces our lost Las Vegas Zoo.
