Arabian Nights

A while ago I heard of 24 (TV series) from my colleague who had come groggy eyed one day from watching it. Weekend seemed like a safe bet for it.
Midnight we were hungry. Cause we didnt have dinner and that we didnt cause of the show on TV.
I wondered what can be made quickly. I knew it had to have gs in some form. Scrambled or omelette in a sandwich. When I mixed salt and chilli powder in the eggs I wasnt sure if I hadnt put a little too much. The oil a lot of it in the pan was heated up and just when I was to make an omelette (which I always manage to mess up), the red lumps of unmixed chili powder set off an internal decision making process and I found myself cutting up the brad in half and dipping it in the liquid. It took me back to college times where we had what was referred to as French toast or Bombay toast- toast Indian style or the savoury style, he night before exams. Being that close to bread heaven , I was reminded of soft bread pakora. The trouble is the frying. Can they be pan fried?

I have  afound a way to make my family love it - a lentil eg urad or moong (fried initially, adds crunch - learned from a friend's sister visiting then) in copious amounts and mandolin sliced cabbage I wanted to see if there was a different way to make it. I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
