Lots of cooking today.....

Dhall; rice; bhagee (spinach + kale + bok-choi) with pieces of green mango; 'fry' karaila; sardines with lots of onion/garlic/tomatee.

Hopefully, will have enough leftovas for the rest of the week. Plus I have some bigan/chicken curry in fridge and some stew chicken in freezer.

duck curry, rice and salad for lunch

I like salad for lunch (no curry/rice though)

Today, I chopped up in small pieces - cucumber, grape tomatoes, radishes, green/yellow/red peppers, red onion, baby spinach and avocado. Added a dash of balsamic vinegar/extra virgin olive oil/sprinkle of salt.

The best lunch!!!

Hubby had his with a toasted cheese and tomato sandwich made with whole-grain flax bread.

Today I am going to a memorial reading😢 so I will eat everything they offer except beef. Looking fwd to sirni 😔

Channa n aloo curry......yummm.  one of my fave.

Did you have any goja for Diwali?

I have been craving this for 46 years!!!

No idea how to make it and I don't want to learn.....I want someone to make it for me!!

You should get him to cook hassar for you.

Is hassar cooked as any other fish? I had that once and did not care for it.

I only like Hassah if it’s fried before currying and there must be other stuff like saijan, ochro, potato or eddo etc cooked with it so that I can be full after pulling and sucking all that bone-shell…

no gojah this way.  I have not had that for few yrs.  my mom used to make the best but these days she doesn’t manage.
I have not made a lot of things since hubby passed away…I was so spoilt by him when it came to cooking special stuff ….he always helped or I didn’t make things like gojah or butter parsad.

46 years is a long time to crave a food…

If you place your tongue to the left side of your mouth it does come out squarish...you hold it to the right it does come out round.

Like u mek world maps deh buddy Ir??

the consistency of mixture.. too watery n prob needs more baking powder or yeast.  I use some yeast in my phulourie  n bara as its softer n doesn't soak up too much oil
