This is a recipe I learned to make this from a very dear friend of mine. Once upon a time on a Friday evening, my friend F walked in with a big bowl of dessert; so aromatic and enticing that I immediately uncovered to see what this orange yellow cream speckled with green & white nuts could be. She smiled & said “It’s Phirni, and the hue comes from the color of saffron“.

Arjun made this for me as you can probably guess;-) We will have another round of this on the Valentine’s day. Much to my delight, he loves experimenting with cocktails & mocktails & most of the times the outcomes are fabulous. The recipe is from “Classic & Contemporary COCKTAILS” . Angel’s Delight is a version of Pousse Cafe, an unmixed mixed drink. This means that if you have steady hand, you could make different layers with the different ingredients, to form a rainbow effect.

It is a hilarious time on the dining table when the little children are eating spaghetti. Funny & messy too, but once in a while I let my kids have that messy time while they eat, for they do enjoy the spaghetti while they are having fun. Those long unmanageable strings hanging down from the fork & then from their mouth and the intentionally “ZOOOOP”, when they all disappear inside at one shot behind that gleeful smile. For some reason when it is spaghetti, they always want to feed themselves. The twinkling mischievious looks, the sauce studded mouth & a full tummy.. well it is worth it.

Remember those Archie’s Galleries back in India? Valentine’s Day always stir up very special memories for me… all those times of courtship, of holding hands and spending hours browsing “Love” cards in the gallery along with other Love smitten college kids before the Valentine’s day. As silly as it sounds, it still puts a smile in our hearts:-) Yes I was 18 then… many eons ago, a part of that crowd in Archies as the Love Bug had bitten me too. Over the years the Archies cards have made ways to short sweet handwritten notes and little appreciations for one another. Many seasons have passed ( no we are not bald & old yet) – the aura & warmth of those intense flaming times still remains strong between both of us. I would say, given a lot of time thru’ the day we would make everyday our Valentine Day. Continue reading Sliwki W Czekoladzie (Plums in Chocolate)…
Recipe: BALTI CHICKEN
Balti is the name of a style of food popular in the Northern part of the Indian Subcontinent & now very popular in England too. It is been told that “balti” dishes had been introduced to England by the people of Pakistan. The name ‘Balti’ for food has nothing to do with an ethnic group living in India and Pakistan who are also called Balti. These Balti people are Tibetan Muslims. The food ‘Balti’ is named after the pot in which it is cooked. As mentioned in the late nineteenth century in Hobson-Jobson, the name ‘balti’ derives from the Portuguese word ‘balde’, meaning bucket/pail, taken to India by the Portuguese on their seafaring enterprises at the end of the fifteenth century. Balti food is a Punjabi recipe and prepared mainly in the Punjabi way.(from WIKI)
The food is a hot curry-style dish, taking its name from the thick flat-bottomed iron pot: Continue reading Balti Chicken, A Review & some Appreciations…  |
