Beans Rasam with European Sourdough Bread

Refried bean soup but with rasam powder (friends home-made). absolute sea for the vehicle of European sourdough bread. You have to debate if you need more sipping/soaking sauce or the bread.
On the side is a curry of soaked chana dal with green onions. I have had it usually with onions but husband provided a green twist to it. Right from the first bite and taste, it was classic and original.This happens to be the ooh -aah want more food of the week.
Over the weekend, neighbours had us over for momos and the tomato sauce happened to be right in every aspect and it vanished faster than I could drink it. How does food get that perfect point where you know its right. Same recipe. Same person. Same technique and yet sometimes its the best than all the other times.

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...
