The c(r)ook has been having a lot of field days!
She reached home last friday night from work and decided to feed 4 hungry men! (and her appetite rivals theirs any damn day!) :) So it was 15 eggs in a yum curry! Keep the eggs to boil and settle down with the onions and tomatoes! Shortest, simplest way to make the curry nice and thick is to run the onions and tomatoes in a mixer! Saute the onions till pink, add ginger garlic in generous amounts and continue to 'bhoono' and then add the minced tomatoes and stir once in a while till it changes color from a soft pinkish red to a nice deep brown-red! Add the masalas as u please and then 'bhoono' some more! If you have coriander/mint chutney at easy access adding some of it is a good idea too! There on ad lots of curd and stir around till the oil separates... add a lil water to get to desired consistency! Meanwhile the eggs have boiled and u get one of the mushtandas to peel all 15! and then you're lucky if he offers to cut them too! :) plonk em in and keep on slow fire for 10 mins while the 'blub blub' begins to sound like music to the ears as the smell wafts and settles in every corner of the house! Lo and behold! :)
Egg curry tastes best with onion rice! Add coriander to it if you please.. the flavor is amazing! However, if you have just come back from office do with the shortcuts of Jeera Rice / Bread! :)
On another given day in the week she decided she needed some TLC and so fell sick! Her knight in shining armour stepped into the kitchen and lo and behold was prepared scrambled eggs with mushroom and cheese.. hint of mustard.. some garlic powder and it tasted right out of a gourmet chef's kitchen! :)
Her quick fix breakfast for him... Mushrooms and tomatoes sauteed with garlic powder, butter, salt and pepper! Bread covered with cheese slices and then dump the tomato mushroom dumplings on and thereon layer it with sausages! I tried the cheese and onion sausages this time around and have fallen in luv with them! You can try any kind you please!
If you are the Jamun loving kind of person here's a coktail u can try:
whiskey + soda + jamun juice + a wee lil bit of coke/pepsi! It sounds really absurd and looks a very funny purple but it tastes damn interesting!!!! :)))
If you have the time and are brunching before going to office a quick fix is mooli parathas! They are a lot faster than the aaloo and gobi...! Just grate it, squeeze out the water... add the masalas.. add anar dana (its not being there will not make a difference.. but its being there makes all the difference! :) ) and add a green chilli cut real small! Tip: Go slow on the salt!
A pasta quick fix: Take a packet of knorr soup (the white base.. non tomato).. add a weeny bit of water to it so that it becomes a thick sauce... tumble the boiled pasta in... add a bit of mustard and some pepper / tobasco sauce! Garnish with sauteed bell peppers in all colors! :)
And that's a lot! I plan to experiment with some more pasta tonite! :) May the guinea pigs be well fed! Ciao! Happy C(r)ooking!!
