Bread Upma

When you think of Bread upma, the sweet tase of bread might be offputting. But if its whole wheat bread, then its not all that sweet and hence has a good chance of taking all the spices and getting savoury. Whole Wheat Waffles.

Onion, Tomato and Cashew Gravy

In my cooking repertoire, if there's anything that needs rescue, it is curries with gravy. For a quick vegetarian gravy, I sauteed onion and tomato and added cashew. It turned out to be a tasty gravy. The creamy part didnt go well with my husband. But I quite enjoyed it and could imagine chicken in that. A well made curry brings out the chef's narcissism.

Dark Chocolate Alohamacs

Chocolate on sale is making me quiet the lady who fills up her fridge with chocolate that she wants to share. A week or so ago, it was chocolate covered cranberry and now its the Alohamacs. A site reads that it has 14 pieces in the box, of which I didnt stop at one but two. The dark chocolate delivers on its promise and the nuts are Kona too. 

Pumpkin Egg Pulusu

Its fall and what is around a lot is Pumpkin. I had already baked a bread with some of it. I wanted to try it in a curry. I thought it was closest to the gravy of Egg Pulusu. I added enough water to bring the consistency of gravy to the paste, red chili powder, salt, garam masala, coconut, tamarind water and boiled eggs. Voila! Experiment Success. Pumpkin paste can be used to make any of the curries with a consistent gravy - like paneer , kofta gravy and so on...

Lindt Hello Caramel Brownie

I am sure there is a law about hovering over cookie/chocolate bowl at a host's house. (But there are urban legends of that too like the one about establishments having to offer water, if they are asked in AZ.) But the task here is urgent. What is this chocolate with signs of bean (pursed lips actually). Technicalities later. so what is his brownie thing. A 'Caramel Brownie'. Nah. Decelerate. Interest expressed. Ziploc of treats in the month of October, but we are not there yet. yes, the pumpkin has already made into a pumpkin coconut oil bread. But you know about the Thursday being the new Friday. Well back to the chocolate, its a cute little thing. Like with all the other concoctions of chocolate aping desserts (Godiva - Creme Brulee), you have to gear up your imagination for it to be the Caramel Brownie, but its good chocolate, discounting the caramel ofcourse.
