Pataks or similar?

The Sharwood tiki masala is very good, I prefer that to the butter chicken.

We had Oven BBQ Brisket with baked potatoes and pinto beans....I had a
little of each.
Hubby brought me home some Godiva choc covered strawberries. Hoping I can
eat one without a big spike.

you making for dinner on Vday? I'd like to get a few ideas that aren't
outrageous with the carbs, aren't terribly tedious to prepare, and
taste good. I'm kind of tired of the same old chicken, steak, etc. I'm
thinking of a main dish, a side dish, and simple dessert. Any
suggestions?
