Well, not really. My boyfriend and I are ooey gooey all the time.
However.
We had friends over for dinner last night. I suggested a couple of days before that we have Curried Chicken and Rice with toppings. Twenty years ago I made this fun dish often.
We bought all of the ingredients.
Then, yesterday, he said "Oh no, we forgot the coconut milk."
Coconut milk?
Then he pulled the - "Remember, I was born in Kuala Lumpur and was raised on curried chicken with sambols" - card.
That's what he calls the toppings.
Sambols.
Well, since I learned to make this recipe in Melbourne, Florida in the 80s using a Crock Pot, and, since we had the ingredients for this recipe, this is what we used.
The dinner was a success but today after he and I ate the left overs we Googled "Malaysian Curried Chicken" and decided to change the recipe a bit next time. Maybe even include the coconut milk.
Last night we compromised on the sambols. They were pineapple chunks, peanuts, raisins, mandarin orange slices, boiled egg bits - and coconut.
