Plenty of cake and fresh fruit

Today I attended a birthday celebration. The cynosure was a fresh fruit chantilly cake. Layers of cake with layers of fruits. Fresh fruit tastes great when cut and even more if it comes with some sauce. But there are times when apples taste better uncut. Have you realised how a fruit triples in size when you cut it? It seems its a few bites and then into the trash with what little can be let to cling to the core. But when the knife comes into the picture, 'divide and rule'.. not so easy.

I had some chicken tikka masala today and I ought to learn to make it.
For some reason the gravy of chicken tikka masala and paneer butter msala, runny with tiny fried onions reminded me of animal style fries at in n out burger.
I also had lamb in mint sauce curry.
Yesterday I made salmon curry in tamarind sauce and fried onions. Grilled Salmon over rice was the first dinner that I had in US at Ramada Inn when I got stuck at an airport.

My friend told me about asparagus sauce on spinning spoons.

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
