Like any other art, the first important thing is to think your project in hand, wether it is a  starter, main course or a dessert.  Cooking good food is a pure art.

Tandoori chicken salad.

Tandoori chicken is a rich, delicious yet healthy dish which is not too spicy, with tender chicken marinated in yogurt and spices.  Here we have used minced  chicken breast with spiced rolled and cooked. Served cold tandoori chicken salad with coriander sauce.

One of my favourite places of work in kitchen was garde manger (a cool storage area for food).  Usually they serve the banquet hall functions, which was always  on of my favourite places of work. I loved creating those edible food displays like Ice carvings, butter sculptures, bread sculptures, cheese carvings, gelatine works on the mirrors, cold cut presentations and much more. Enjoy cooking!!
