Hmm food experiment

I made a chicken curry for dinner tonight. It's in the crock pot now, simmering away. I have NO idea how it's going to be, since 1) I didn't measure any of the ingredients, and 2) when I was trying to add "just a sprinkle" of ground cinnamon, my hand slipped and I added a big blob of cinnamon, which got all mixed in with the other spices and couldn't be scooped back out again.

What I did: Three onions, peeled and sliced, and one package of chicken breast, trimmed and cut into chunks, cooked together in a big pot over high heat, with some olive oil. Then I added curry powder, cinnamon, tumeric, saffron, garlic, ginger (paste and powdered,) coriander, cumin, chili powder, and four whole cloves. While this was all cooking together, I poured a big can of tomato puree into the crock pot and turned it on high. Once the outside of the chicken pieces were cooked/browned, I dumped everything into the crock pot. Now we play... the waiting game.

La la la.

Sounds yummy! And I'd add golden raisins or currants at the end if it were me...
