ROSEMARY IS THY NAME-ALA FILLETS & A LONE SQUID

Ok so i had a full on supply of herbs & its after a long time so we decided to go with the rosemary here.

We love our herbs as much as we do a prawn curry & am so eager to experiment with all these herbs.

CHIVES & PEPPERS ALL DRESSED TO GARNISH

Due to a not very good market supply here,most resorts,which do use herbs in abundance,tend their own on their vast lawns & thats the best way to have a regular supply in ur own kitchen.

THE MARINADE WELL RUBBED & PUSHED THRU THE GASHES TOO

And yeah there were chicken fillets for dinner ,so coudn go wrong with an accompaniment of grilled toms & tangy dressing(see recipe below).
And with the flavoursome rosemary-now aint that a lovely name-u cant go wrong and so here i am this week at ---the weekend herb blogging ----


I'd love to have a tandoor coal kinda grill & am working on a temp one but for now its a top fire griller which is quite good(& fast too,keeps me on my feet not to burn toast in the mornings) & yeah would love a griddle pan that'll leaves those lovely criss-cross or horizantal lines on ur grilled catch of the day.

LOADS OF ROSEMARY -SO FRAGRANT & AROMATIC

This recipe is actually my little bros,which was born when he asked a chef to grill chicken this way for him when he was at a resort & its totally his recipe-a family of foodies couldn get better for me!!!!
Am happy to join in my second weekend of weekend herb blogging ie about cooking with herbs & plants that scream different-i so like the concept,this was originally started byby Kalynskitchen around 4 years back and now is hosted by Haalo of Cook (Almost) Anything At Least Once.
