Kapsalon

 On BBC tv recently they showed a recipe for a Dutch dish called "Kapsalon" - totally new to me, but looked really tasty. I understand that it originated in Rotterdam, - and is often seen in  fast food restaurants -- and that Kapsalon translates to Hairdresessers ----
Anyway, when I cook stuff I like to do things from scratch, so it wasn't fast, but was fun, and very tasty

That's what it looked like, --

Well it's Dutch isn't it

Start with chips/fries - I don't like deep frying. so these got baked in the oven

Seasoned with salt and paprika

Chicken breast with spice mix. I ground the whole spices where possible, - I had most in the cupboard

2 tsp Cumin powder

1 tsp Cardamon powder

2 tsp Cinnamon powder

2 tsp Sweet paprika

1 tsp Nutmeg powder

1/2 tsp Ground cloves

1 tsp Cayenne or hot paprika powder

1 tsp Allspice powder

1/2 tsp Turmeric powder

2 tsp Black pepper powder

2 tsp Garlic powder

1 tsp Ginger powder - 1 tsp

Fried & sliced the chicken breasts

Piled on top of the chips 

salad with freshly cooked beetroot & mild pickled chillies

Great Grated Gouda

The dips /sauces (with the ground spices)

Chilli sauce is tomato puree and chilli powder, but of salt & honey. 
Garlic sauce is yoghurt and finely minced garlic

and here we are again. Pile on the salad -

 Just melted the cheese a bit under the frill, and added the sauces.

Friend round for dinner, beer, wine and movie --
