last sunday i had lunch at the indian restaurant next to trader joe's. it was only my second time ever having indian food, and i ordered the chicken tikki saag (chicken and spinach in creamy sauce). it came with rice and naan bread. it was quite a generous serving, so i made sure to box up the remainder of about 1/2 c of the chicken tikki saag and 3/4c of rice.
i could've merely heated up and eaten the leftovers, but instead i decided to experiment by converting the chicken tikki saag into a soup. i started by heating 3c of water. to that i added two low sodium chicken broth packets from trader joe's. once the broth was hot and blended, i added the tikki ssag and rice. there was enough seasoning in the tikki saag that i didn't need to add anything else.
it was delicious and i was able to eat off of it for two days. don't know when i'll next be eating indian or chinese, but i'm kind of excited to play with whatever future leftovers i have. (and i'd have posted this when i did it, but . . . well, see previous post).
