Deviled Chicken (Sri Lankan)
This is a side that was common in our household when I was growing up. I loved deviled chicken whenever my Mom made it for us. We used to eat it with white rice or with fried rice.The fries/wedges adds an extra touch. After all who can resist big pieces of crispy fries soaked in spicy curry?!

Add the vinegar and salt (to taste).

Add the chili flakes, cover the pot and let the chicken boil.

Once the chicken has boiled/when there's little bit of liquid left, turn off this stove and drain the liquid into another pot/container and keep aside. Do not throw the liquid!

Add the oil into the pot with the chicken pieces and leave the chicken to fry/brown on the stove. Do not turn the chicken pieces over or stir till a nice brown color has been achieved on each side. Once the color is achieved turn the piece over and let it fry on the other side.

I never liked beans; but over time I grew to love them. I ESPECIALLY like anything simmered in tomato sauce. Here’s a terrific fusion of the two; another Filipino household favorite.PS: Grandma likes to pan-fry the potatoes, chicken, and plantains ahead of time to get some color on the outside, but it’s purely for aesthetics. This version doesn’t do that - but you can totally do it grandma’s way if you like :)

Aubergine and Pepper Miso Stir Fry Aubergine and Pepper Miso Stir Fry
This is common home cooking in Japan. It is called a stir fry but is more simmered dish. When I was there I cooked with pork often. Now I know it's also good with ground beef and even with chicken breast. When you add what ever meat you choose, add after step 6. We had leftover ginger pork so I cooked without meat this time. Since miso has good flavour it was still good.

Chicken Cacciatore Chicken Cacciatore
A hearty and homey meal for any chilly evening. Fall off the bone chicken, a touch of heat. To soak up all the goodness I suggest to serve it with a good quality bread and sop up that sauce. Creamy polenta adds a decadent touch. Have rice soak in all the sauces goodness too. If you can find the garlic stuffed olives, grab them. In my opinion they add so much extra flavor to the dish.

Chicken Campagnola Chicken Campagnola
There is this great little Italian Restaurant in the Irish section of the Bronx. A perfect place for me to frequent, considering my background. They have a lot of great dishes, but there is one dish that I love the most. It has potatoes, sausages, peppers, and chicken. All of my favorites ingredients in one dish.Two weeks earlier, my family and I went there for my sister's birthday. Of course, I had this dish. After dinner on the ride home, I told my wife that I will make that dish. Not sure how, but I will do it.I went to the store and blindly bought what I thought may be in the dish. Did I get the right stuff? Did I miss anything? Did I create a totally new dish? No idea, but to me, my version is way better. No offense to my favorite restaurant.As always, this dish is open for interpretation. You can try it as is or fiddle around with it. It can be served over pasta or rice or even alone. It is up to you. #mycookbookEnjoy!

I have tried so many recipes; from the slow cooker to the regular stovetop. None of them were any good. Either the sauce was too watery, too thick, there was no flavor, etc.As is my MO in life, I decided to do my usual routine and pick & choose from different recipes. My wife and I finally came up with this recipe. We love it and wanted to share it. Hopefully, you will too!Enjoy! -
