Down the canele

While making canele, I had two egg whites that I put in a curry. Looking at the texture of those stringy bits, I was reminded of egg drop soup.
Coming to the canele, I took so many degree turns in the recipe that now I wonder how different it could be too if I stuck to the recipe. I ran out of all purpose when I was at a height of excitement to get the batter ready and chill it. so I used whole wheat and not the whole milk and skipped the rum.
Caneles made in muffin pan, were crusty on the outside and soft like steamed pudding in the inside. They reminded me of a very simple dish that is made as an offering to god - Hanuman appalu

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...

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.
