I decide to start the challenge of emptying out my food storage by clearing the fridge of the leftovers generated by my daughter's recent visit. I know there is leftover Indian food and take-out from Moby Dick's House of Kabob. (And no, I don't know why a restaurant serving cuisine from a landlocked, primarily Muslim country is named after that great Puritan seafaring tale of cetology and revenge. I don't think they have any fish kebabs on offer, even.)
I pull out the ziploc of rice and the various tupperware containers, anticipating a hearty meal, only to discover that the mice, two legged or four legged, have already had at them. There's about a quarter, maybe a third of a cup of rice and about two tablespoons each of dal, chicken tikka makhani, and saag makai, plus some raita. So I add the grilled onions and tomatoes that are all that's left of the kubidah platter (those same mice have made off with the rice and kebab), some leftover grilled asparagus, and the last little corner of flatbread. Tasty, if eclectic. And not quite as filling as I had hoped. Good thing there is also half a Milky Way milkshake from Good Stuff Eatery. The perfect dessert, it just fills in the corners nicely.
Bon Appetit!
