Last night I made grilled pork sirloin and grilled asparagus, with purple peruvian potatoes that I boiled in beef broth.

That sirloin looks really good! Never had asparagus, but I'd definitely try it since I like most greens. The potatoes though... They are something else and looks like an alien should be eating them. I'd get a second helping of everything. :D
Thanks! :chef:
Asparagus is good stuff. They're in season in the Spring. But it's imported year-round. Go for the skinnier ones. And don't be alarmed if your pee smells funny after you eat it. :D
I got the purple potatoes for a little something different. They were creamy on the inside, and the skins had a subtle coffee or cocoa flavor.
Plus lots of (natural) color variety in one's diet is supposedly a good thing -- antioxidants, and all that. The blues / purples are rich in anthocyanins, which prevent tumors from forming and suppress their growth.
How come I get hungry everytime you post Grrlscout? That looks very good, as usual. Do the purple potatoes taste the same as a regular potato? You mention the skin having a subtle flavor but not the rest of them.
Samosas:

I was too lazy to make 'em small and thin, so i went for big, stuffed and hearty instead. sampled them and i'd say they passed.

i'll be starting the rest of it soon.
DAMN ! That looks GOOD ! I hate you guys sometimes ! lol
everything but the rice is standing by for it's last bit of simmering or reaheating before people show up.
i didn't take prep pictures here, but i'll throw in a serving pic and hopefully a rundown.
Mmmmmm MMMmmmm !!!!
I guess my invitation to dinner got lost in the mail.
Looks amazing.
i don't know if it's just me, but the chilies at the markets here seem to be getting milder.
the aloo gobi had loads of serenos in it and came out mild. i tasted one raw and i think my grandmother could eat them.
Try habaneros instead. Guaranteed to make you weep.
too expensive here, and frequently in poor shape.
and,, They are real Butt Burners !
Great looking cooking Candid and Grrlscout.
As for the after burner, I crave hot stuff like many people crave sweet stuff and rarely have the problem. I did have a friend once who worked at our family shop. Every time he ate something hot the night before he would come out of the bathroom saying, "Damn, I shoulda ate ice cream before dinner last night!" :)
i always figured it went hand in hand with digestive health.
eat lightning, cra# thunder.
Ohhh canid that looks so yum! I love samosas.
I do think that grocery store peppers are pretty tame. Thankfully, peppers are one thing that seems to do well in my garden.
Last time I made aloo gobi, I used one dried dundicut (purchased from Penzey's), crushed, and it added a nice heat. I had to keep it relatively tame for the rest of the family. But that pepper didn't mess around.
Camp10 - oh yeah, the inside of the purple potatoes tasted just like that of a yukon gold to me.
Fajitas.
Sirloin steak, onion, green peppers, tortillas, lettuce, sour cream and salsa. ...and tomatos
