Lots of people think Indian food is complicated but this here is an example of how you can make easy, tasty, healthy Indian vegetarian food in less than 30 minutes....

I’ve been getting into miso lately. The salty, earthy, savory flavour just seems to add magic to everything it touches. Miso grilled chicken with Korean kick I saw recipe for Japanese broiled miso chicken. Looked really good. Subtle and understated in that Japanese way. But so tasty. Then I started thinking.

The immersion circulator types like Anova go on sale for around a hundred bucks....
