MY VERSION- ASSORTED RED PASTA

Apparently , this is a desi red pasta dish my version, totally for the indian pallet.
Sometimes, you feel like eating something different with an indian touch to it, so i came up with this recipe.
You can use the leftover different pastas and boil them together, i got these assorted one's from the store, looks really good. For indans pasta is not a meal, and they don't really accept the term "AL DANTE" cz we indians like food thats totally cooked, we even prefer meat thats about to fall off from the bone. But trust me boil, till the pasta is "AL DANTE" tastes perfect.
Al dante means cooked so as to be still firm when bitten , and i think vegetables should also be cooked in this way , for the nice crunch you get when bite into it.
try it......

 INGREDIENTS-

  1. boiled assorted pasta 100gms
  2. olive oil one tbsp
  3. mushrooms a handful
  4. one onions julliene cut
  5. coriander
  6. fresh red chillies
  7. salt
  8. tomato ketchup
  9. pepper
  10. chesse(optional)
HOW TO COOK ASSORTED RED PASTA-

  • heat the oil in the pan well
  • ass julliene sliced onions to it, and cook till its caramalisex
  • add fresh red chillies,coriander,mushrooms, salt pepper and tomato ketchup to it.
  • cook well, till the mushrooms are ready
  • throw all the pasta into the pan and let it be there for a while , serve hot with chesse sprinkled on top of it.

CHICK CHICK CHICKEN CUTLETS

Image
Sometimes, I get totally bored by eating chicken thighs, breasts and fillets...... So I tried something ingenious with chicken, I got chicken mince instead of the pieces. Threw some ingredients to it and that tasted like chicken heaven. I had these cutlets with bun, like an Indian burger. Everybody in my house loves it, we have this normally on Sunday mornings.............as its a lethargic rest day for us, so the dish should be heavy and comforting as well. My mother guided me during this experiment, otherwise, I would have made a blunder...!! Because of the supervision, this dish came out perfectly........... with no cutlets left in the plate. Here's the recipe- MIXTURE- half kg chicken minced one onion green chilly 2 chopped coriander a handful chopped finely salt red chilly powder turmeric eggs 2 gram flour(if the mixture doesn't hold in) oil PROCEDURE- heat some oil in a big flat pan mix all the ingredients as mentioned above and make small pat...

TRAVEL TO SOUTH- DOSA, a mid night present.

Image
I live in Maharashtra, nagpur so I can't get authentic dosa's here....:/ boo hoo!! I had authentic dosa's in hyderabad, chennai but its been quite a while. The dosa served there is contrary to what its served here..... :|..... In south viz; andra pradesh, tamil nadu, kerala, Kannada.... The dosa's may vary from state to state, but the flavour what you get there , I never found that here, or in any other place except south. I love south Indian food and culture a lot,I feel a connection cz my mother is telugu...... :-* According to my perception, south indians are conservative, well cultured, educated and dedicated , humble people....... :) Oh I ward off from the main topic here, "dosa". My mother always keeps the batter ready in the fridge for me, as I am quite fussy..!(maybe that's why I am getting fat XD..) Jokes apart, I let the batter stay in the fridge for 4-5 days for fermentation till it gets a hint of sourness to it, I kn...
