A fruit and a vegetable

Since yesterday a worm runnning amok in my head is the idea of having an apple cut in all the brilliant ways that French cookbooks suggest. Other guinea pigs - carrot (raw), a vegetable (cooked).
While having the carrot soup, I wondered how would the carrot & potato curry seem. With the shape of the pieces retained, we reach the border of the food fast unlike in a soup. Bear with me here, can you understand the situation where I was hungry where I had lots of cake, while making the soup. I reached a point where I was full but my stomach wasnt. There must be some amount of food that maintains its wholeness and hence we go for so many bites.

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...

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.
