Saffron Pistachio Tiramisu
The texture is pretty one note, just mush with little textural assistance from the chopped pistachios. The flavor is also one note, with overwhelming saffron and not a hint of cardamom.

Malabar Shrimp Curry
Very flavorful. Would try it with a different protein.

Classic-Butter Chicken
Texture of chicken was too fibrous. I could not finish this meal. Flavor was wonderful but the chicken ruined it. Maybe try thighs?
