Chicken Tikka
Ingredients Instructions 1 kg. chicken 1½ tsp. ginger (Adrak) paste 1½ tsp. garlic (Lehsan) paste bunch fresh coriander (Dhaniya) leaves 3-4 green chilies 1 medium onion 1 tsp garam masala 4-5 Whole dried red chilies ½ salt (according to taste) 6 tbs. yogurt OR 3 tbs. lemon juice Mix all the spices together. Put in a blender and make a paste. Make 4-5 deep cuts on each side of the chicken pieces. This will help it cook better on the inside as well as giving it a better flavour. Coat the pieces with the paste and leave to marinate for a few hours preferably overnight in fridge. Then BBQ or bake in oven. If baking in the oven use an aluminum tray covered with foil for the first 20 minutes at 375o F. Uncover, turn the chicken over, and cover it up again. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes. By this time the chicken should be cooked. Increase the temp to 4500F , uncover and bake until the top is dry and the cuts that you made have 'opened up'. Turn over and when it looks done - it’s done! Serve with salad and naan Serving: 2 to 3 persons

Paratha
Ingredients Instructions 2 cups Flour 1/4 tsp. Salt 1 cup water Oil or ghee as need In flour add salt and mix. Add a little water and mix. The consistency should be soft and putty-like. It helps if you kneed it with a wet hand. Keep the dough in the fridge for 5 minutes. Divide this dough into 4 portions. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it into a chapati shape (round). Spread a little oil or ghee on it. Make a cut in it from the center to the edge. Pick up the cut edge and start rolling it so that you end up with a cone. With the palm of your hand flatten it while twisting it so that it once again forms a ball type thing. Flatten it again in chapati shape and fry it on medium to low heat with three tbsp oil or more depending on the size of the frying pan. Turn it over once the bottom is golden brown. When both sides are golden brown it’s done

Australia v Sri Lanka, VB Series, 1st final, Adelaide
Dilshan's brilliance sinks Australia
The Bulletin by Peter English
February 10, 2006
Sri Lanka 8 for 274 (Sangakkara 83, Atapattu 53, Kapugedera 38, Bracken 3-61) beat Australia 252 (Clarke 80, Katich 56) by 22 runs Scorecard and ball-by-ball commentary How they were out
Australia suffered their first home finals loss in nine years as their chase froze under extreme Sri Lankan pressure and the brilliant fielding of Tillakaratne Dilshan. Sri Lanka bowled well and their defensive effort was superb, but the home side's batting was a disaster as they gave up five run-outs - four horrible ones to Dilshan - and a 22-run loss in their most tentative effort of the summer.
Sri Lanka head to Sydney for Sunday's second final with a 1-0 lead and need to win only one of the following two games for an upset series victory. Australia led the group phase by 13 points, but that was not respected today as they were ambushed by a careful batting performance that carried a deadly sting in the tail. It was followed by a stunning display in the field that made their opponents' running between wickets look like the acts of social games. It could be their most costly showing of the season.
Defending a target of 275, which relied on a late charge of 58 in 5.1 overs from Dilshan and Chamara Kapugedera, Sri Lanka's huddle throbbed as they collected 3 for 13 to dump Australia to 3 for 64 in the 15th over. The dismissal of Adam Gilchrist for 26 silenced the home fans, but the run-outs of Ponting without facing a ball and Martyn for 1 shocked them. By the time Simon Katich departed for 56 to the third mistake and Michael Hussey was upended for the fourth the supporters were familiar with such catastrophes and the result was sealed.
The ground was not a sell-out so noise was not a factor, but the batsmen failed to hear the calls of their partners and instead took in the celebrations of Dilshan. Ponting and Katich ended up at the same end, Martyn was so far out from the direct hit he didn't bother sprinting or sliding his bat, Katich was sent back by Michael Clarke, and Hussey suffered in another mix-up. No decision was close, and Dilshan then grabbed a catch off James Hopes, who could not provide a Supersub salvage operation.
Katich struck six clever boundaries to give his side some well-needed stability until his dismissal at 5 for 122, leaving the job of an extended run-a-ball chase to Clarke. Muttiah Muralitharan made that difficult with 3 for 40 and while Clarke produced a last-ditch 80 from 83 balls that made the score look respectable, Australia had been trying to catch up since giving up 88 runs in the final ten overs of the first innings.
"I didn't think we did too much wrong with the ball until the last five and then we had brain snaps with the batting," Ponting said. "We had five run-outs and a stumping with a few serious communication mix-ups and it cost us."
Kumar Sangakkara, the Man of the Match, and Marvan Atapattu set up Sri Lanka with half-centuries before a brilliant late-over push shoved them to 8 for 274. Sangakkara posted a fine 83 from 106 balls and Atapattu added 53, but the fireworks were saved for Dilshan and Kapugedera as they flexed to a convincing total.
Australia were comfortably placed as Sri Lanka reached 3 for 186 after 40 overs, but their advantage was quickly lost despite Nathan Bracken claiming 3 for 61. Kapugedera, an 18-year-old playing in his first international series, smashed two sixes from Symonds and another from Bracken in the final over of an amazing 38 from only 21 balls.
Dilshan, who had 26 off 20, also struck some hefty blows, sweeping Symonds for a six and lofting a Lee delivery on top of one of the Chappell Stands to start a memorable day. He didn't get a wicket, but everything else he touched seemed to turn the match, and Australia were the losing side in a VB Series decider for the first time since South Africa beat them by six runs in 1997-98. That was also the opening game of the contest and Australia fought back to claim the series.
After arriving in the country in despair following disastrous tours of India and New Zealand, Sri Lanka are now buzzing with belief and the Sydney surface will also suit them. Most importantly, they know how to disrupt the rhythm of Australia's batsmen, who tonight were made to run like newborn foals by Dilshan.
