So many things to cook

I am planning a Mega Meal on saturday for my friends. I chose the following recipes.
Beerakaya pesarapappu kootu
Dondakaya Kobbari Vepudu
Tomato Nuvvula Pachadi
Beerakaya Kothimira Pachadi
Kothimira Perugu Pachadi
Tomato Perugu Pachadi
Moong dal payasam
Gaajar ka doodh
Vankaya Pachi pulusu

This is the wish list. Lets see how it goes.

PS:
9/19

A visit to the grocery store, changed the course. I could not find Dondakaya. I should have looked for it in frozen, but that wouldnt do it for me. The night before some more recipes seem interesting. Given so many choices, it is quite an accomplishment to choose. You are hearing from a person who buys a like dress in all the colors available. that should be apparent from the above list of two pachadis, two perugu pachadis. Sense prevails. In the end I made

Egg biryani and chose to make the remaining stuff on another day.

I have liked the softness of moong dal as a child. It feels good to reproduce that taste. Its the melting golden dal. I have been ignorant of ridge gourds star status in pachadi, which turns out excellent in all its form - inside or outside.

Egg Malai Masala

  Egg Malai Masala  Its fun when things turn out as they should. I pureed the onions and then cooked them well. I added the milk for the egg Malai Masala and made chicken curry with other half of the onion base. I used kasoori methi in both. Many times I have felt the onions grainy, but this time I got it right. Patience.

Cuban Bread

So you should already know the sweet and breadrolls book if you have already read of the popovers. I have planned on making bread for a long time. A detour of popovers and finally I'm aqui. From the same book, I tried this Cuban bread and enjoyed making the slits in the bread. Like a surgeon. I still have to get the proofing right. The actual recipe reading takes place in real time. I was reading about the bread on the web and when I came across the lines about how it is different from a French bread in that it is left to rise after shaping the loaf, I was worried that my Cuban bread would lose its nationality. Turns out that I hadnt progressed that far into the recipe. The Best American travel writing 2008 Khubz al arabi
