Orechiette with Kale and Breadcrumbs

At the time I bought Delallo breadcrumbs Italian Seasoned. I didnt know very many specific recipes hat used breadcrumb, other than finding your way with them. yes in cutlets and so but..
Delallo had a whole wheat penne kale toasted breadcrumbs, which in my mind read as  orecchiette instead of penne as a nod to the cute tiny bag of  Hemisfares Orecchiette in the house.
I didnt know that toasted breadcrumbs on pasta was a thing. And who heard of Lemon breadcrumbs.
Meanwhile Orecchiette with kale and breadcrumbs for a native recipe.

I do like adding savory mixture to my rice. Adding crunchy onions to the biryani. tometo . tomaato

So I began to make the Orechiette with Kale but with an idea of the proportion of kale to the orechiette, I couldnt ladle in all of the pasta into the bowl. I had to use the rest in another dish. I added some crushed tomatoes. But that was too watery. Then I thought something needs to go in there. Refried beans perfect. And a thing like this, has a name called Refried bean soup and in this case it will be, Orechiette refried bean soup.

If I hadnt used some kale yesterday in Lima beans along with spring onions, I wouldnt have this chance to make a quick refried bean soup.

Egg Malai Masala

  Egg Malai Masala  Its fun when things turn out as they should. I pureed the onions and then cooked them well.

Many times I have felt the onions grainy, but this time I got it right. Patience.

Mohanthal

Today I learnt of Mohanthal from a neighbor at community potluck. One of the dishes was a malai kofta made from mexican squash. Another neighbor spoke about how hard she found to make batura. She said that as she would shape the dough, it would spring back to its original shape. That makes me appreciate the complexity of dishes and the act of cooking. My neighbor impressed with my interest in he sweet, shared some Mohanthal with us. It is truly a sweet from heaven. I was reminded of a sweet from my marriage. Another neighbor quipped about the satisfactoin of eating when very hungry and not as much when you eat on time everyday, which resonated in the following lines of Charles Bukowski in  Wandering in the cage. "the best thing about near-starvation and hunger is that when you finally eat it is such a beautiful and delicious and magical thing. people who eat 3 meals a day throughout life have never really tasted food… "
