t to taste for masala 1 t oil 2 tsp red chilli powder 1 tsp black pepper powder 2 tsp chaat masala 1 tsp dried mango powder wash the peanuts under running water in a colander remove it onto a plate and sprinkle 2 3 t besan on it and mix using a spoon once done sprinkle some more besan and little water enough only to coat the besan over the peanuts extra water will make the peanuts stick to each other that is not desired repeat it till all the besan is used in a wok heat the oil and drop the besan coated peanuts in the oil using a spatula fry till golden brown remove on a paper towel to spice it further heat 1 t oil in a wok add all the masalas and add the fried mungfalis roast till all the masala has been coated on the peanuts store it in an airtight container once cooled yesterday i caught on fashion though the movie was realeased over diwali but this is not your typical diwali movie probably golmaal would have been my choice too for a diwali movie only if it wasn t for some of the crap movies i have been watching lately as i was sure that fashion would have some content while golmaal returns sequel to golamaal could go eitherways though i had loved golmaaal fashion does show some of the truths behind the ramp but doesnt reveal as much s page 3 had the ones that are shown are the ones viewer is already aware of is the biggest weakness of fashion this is out and out pryanka chopra s film she narrates her story from an ordinary girl to a supermodel priyanka shines like never before after 6 flops ths one is a breather this is got to be her best performance till date one of the best thing about this movie is the wondeful supporting cast everybody leaves you spell bound mugdha godse is terrific in her first movie kangana is wonderful but we have seen her do the same thing over and over again i would really like her to do something different now the surprise packge is arbaaz khan he fits to the t in a serious role kitu gidwani is very good in her role problem with fashion is its length nearly 3 hours long gets on to you when the movie is quite predictable fashion doesnt reveal as much as madhur s film promise to its still definitely a good watch

parts of chennai and this is heavy rains i am speaking of the main road in front of my office was below knee length water and getting out of the place seemed like a herculean task the times of india symbolized this beautifully in their next day s edition one thing chennai s rain always does even if it rains for a couple of hours confine you to the place you are at coz of the flooding that happens to make the most of it i normally setup the chairs in the balcony and plant myself with a plate of something fried and a hot cup of tea it was mangode made with green moong we relished this time with some green chutney mangode ingredients 150 gm whole green moong 3 potatoes 2 green chillies 2 tsp red chilli powder salt to taste oil to deep fry soak the moong for 4 5 hours and grind to a thick paste along with a green chilli add salt red chili powder and finely chopped green chilli to it mix well peel and dice the potatoes separately into cubes in a wok heat the oil add the potatoes to the moong paste and mix well when the oil is hot enough for frying with your hands or with a spoon drop little by little of this mix into the oil fry till brown enjoy this with green chutney they are a good combination between bread slices with some chutney and salted curd sprinkled on them i am sending this to fic brown event hosted by sunshinemom of tongue ticklers looking out for something more to relish in monsoons onion pakodas paneer tikka sandwich bread upma posted by nidhi at 3 31 pm 28 comments labels pakodas snacks street food monday october 13 2008 leftover bread dilemma one thing always concerns me after relishing dahi idli what to do of all the edges that are cut off from the bread while making it most often than not i roast the bread with tomato gravy which we at home call bhuni bread occasionally i grind it after drying it in sun to use as bread crumbs or bake it to use in tomato soup how do you use up your leftover bread bhuni bread ingredients 5 bread slices leftover bread from dahi idli 1 tomato 1 t oil pinch of asafetida ½ tsp mustard 1 green chilly chopped 1 tsp chilli powder ½ tsp turmeric salt to taste coriander to garnish break the bread into several pieces heat the oil in a wok and add mustard to it let it splutter and add hing and green chillies to it add the chilli turmeric salt and mix add the tomatoes and sauté till the oil just starts to separate add the bread and mix well till it is coated with the tomato mix cook till it is a little roasted mix the finely chopped coriander bread edges or leftover bread used adds a crispness to the dish while the soft portion of the bread turns soggy when used here i am sure onion and garlic paste would enhance the taste of this dish however i still don t use it reason being i don t wish to change any dish that i have learnt from my mom a bit at my home back in goa my mom doesn t use onion and garlic in any preparation that at times comes as a surprise to some but thats the way we make all our dishes however i do use onion and garlic at my home but not for my mom s recipe last week we chose drona over kidnap after much confusion as our weekend watch i indeed was happy after the not so good reviews kidnap received while it was a mixed bag for drona drona primarily is a mythological film set in today s time for a mythological film to work it needs to involve you in from the very beginning which drona fails miserably reason being several things left unexplained in the film as a viewer you don t feel excited about anything related to drona being unfolded on screen without sounding too harsh i can say that there are high chances of one enjoying the mythological soaps telecast on tv than this movie the film borrows a lot from harry potter but fails miserably the animation is bad something hollywood did several years ago we are still struggling with as for the actors abhishek disappointed the most with drona you see him moving around with an angry face he for once never looks the part for me kay kay came across as a very scary in his first scene i had my eyes covered but then on he disappoints priyanka is plain average i wonder why she would be running around with her long flowing dresses when her job is to protect the savior of the world this is supposed to be a movie about a man with superpowers but you never even for a second can believe that the guy on the screen possesses any super powers what so ever now something that never bothered me so much than in this movie were the props used drona s costume looked borrowed from some cheap theatre group with some motif work on it one important prop used was a conch shell which when blown will open the doors to the place where the amrit lies can u imagine that was painted in bright purple and decorated all over with the sequin bindi stickers ditto was with the box hidden in the desert that stored this conch shell so was the case with the hidden city of secret decorated all over with sequins i wonder if they bought the sequins in dozens is drona good for anything yes it is its a good place to catch up with your old friend and chit chat for a couple of hours director goldie behl has left the film well open for a sequel and has in his recent interview confirmed that he indeed would go ahead with the sequel i had to share this with you ll during a supposedly intense scene in the desert between abhishek and priyanka there was tujhe dekha to yeh jana sanam in the background it leaves you with shock only to realize later that it was some body s ring tone in the theater and induces a huge laughter in the background that was seriously funny posted by nidhi at 8 20 pm 22 comments labels bread breakfast instantly made thursday october 2 2008 playing the guessing game in my last post i had asked you ll to play a guessing game with me a few of you did come close i will come to that a li l later serving your guest with something they in most probability must have not had before are going to love it and is still so simple to make clicks with me works well even as an evening snack or when served in breakfast it is one snack whenever made for any of the guests they have almost instantly asked for the recipe men included the men have always said that they would go back and try it at their home how much of that really happened i don t know the dish looks like idli is called idli but definitely is not one this recipe is called dahi idli bread idli ingredients 10 sandwich slices 2 potatoes boiled 8 t curd 1 t oil 1 t mustard seeds ½ t red chilly powder salt to taste coriander finely chopped to garnish add the chilli powder and salt to the boiled potatoes and mash it add salt to the curd and mix well heat oil in a pan or a smaller utensil used for tadka and add the mustard seeds let it splutter and take off the stove to cut a slice into round you would require something circular which when placed over a slice will cover only the soft of the slice and not the edges i normally use a glass or a sharp bowl for it on a cutting board place a slice of the bread and cut into circular using a glass making sure edges are left behind similarly cut all the other slices apply a layer of potato mix on one side of the slice heat the tawa and sprinkle few drops of oil place 2 potato covered slices at the center of the tawa with their potato side down apply a generous coat of the curd making sure it doesn t drip around this now needs to be covered with a lid making sure the lid doesn t touch the bread i use my pan lid for it after approx a min take off the lid and sprinkle ½ tsp of mustard oil mix over each bread and cover again cook till the potato layer is lightly roasted take it of the tawa and sprinkle some coriander leaves on it serve hot with green chutney or tomato ketchup now for the guessing part there were a couple who guessed the ingredient curd correct and the others guessed it as idli while sripriya came closest with her bread idli guess posted by nidhi at 11 30 am 28 comments labels bread breakfast instantly made snacks monday september 29 2008 chilli cheese toast gosh don t remember when was the last time i logged into my blog last 10 days have been so hectic what when you have every possible thing turning up keeping you extremely busy except the maid with the visiting guests extra work load in office and in the middle of all this the maid doesn t turn up for one entire week without any notice not as if i kept busy 24 hours a day in whatever little time i got i have been reading the three mistakes of my life by chetan bhagat the maid turned up yesterday so i am much more relaxed now oh what if she doesn t end up again today its already 11 30 am and she isn t in as yet but in those last 10 days i would be looking for quick easy to make snacks after returning from work that would last me till i could fix the dinner one of these instantly made snack is chilli cheese sandwich this sandwich doesn t call for any preparation time is done instantly and leaves a nice chilly taste this must be a chennai specialty i hadn t tasted this anywhere before you can find it almost everywhere here makes for a perfect quick snack ingredients 4 slices of sandwich bread 2 slices of cheddar cheese 2 green chillies chopped the pic is self explanatory i folded the cheese slice at the edges to prevent it from flowing out when it melts cover this with another slice similarly set other sandwich as well heat the griller and place the sandwiches in best enjoyed with some potato chips and tomato ketchup talking of it my next post is going to be another quick snack do you wanna take a guess at what this is or what ingredients this calls for posted by nidhi at 7 13 am 19 comments labels instantly made sandwich snacks street food wednesday september 17 2008 bread can anything be simpler last afternoon i was going through my bookmarked recipes a bread recipe caught my fancy did i say bread naah i meant the simplest bread recipe there couldn t be anything simpler than this very low chance of anybody going wrong on this one i got it perfectly after all oh btw i was suppose to be trying pizza recipes wasn t i hmmm that post is coming real soon too since i have got a very good recipe for it back to the bread have you ever thought what goes in making a bread all purpose flour maida which is the basic ingredient yeast to make the dough rise salt for the taste and of course water to make a dough this is where i would stop my thinking and would wonder what else goes in to making that perfect bread to my surprise that was all yes the 4 magical ingredients some time and you are done i came across this bread recipe on siri s corner and couldn t believe that bread making could be so simple you should also check out this it has some very good lessons about bread making ingredients 1 1 2 all purpose flour maida 1 tsp active dry yeast 1 tsp salt ½ 1 4 cup warm water in a bowl pour the ¼ cup water and add the yeast to this keep this to froth takes approximately 10 mins make sure the water is not too hot as this can destroy the yeast it should just be warm enough to comfortably dip your finger in it in a mixing bowl sift the flour and add salt add the frothy yeast and ½ cup water form this into a dough if required use some more water we do not want the dough to be dry with lumps form nice soft dough for perfect bread on a lightly floured surface transfer the dough and knead till you get a smooth dough this step takes around 10 mins what is the correct way to knead the bread dough if this is the same question haunting you you need not look any further check this video since kneading is a very important step of bread making it is important that you get this right grease a big bowl with oil and transfer the dough in it pat some oil on the dough with your fingers cover with a cling film and keep it to rest in a dark warm place i always keep this in my microwave and if the weather is cool i heat the oven for a minute before placing the dough now see the yeast do its magic wait till the dough has doubled this has almost always taken 2 hours for me punch the dough down and knead again for 2 mins this goes back again in the greased bowl and cover it let this rise for another 45 mins it would be back to nearly double its size by now take it out and shape roughly into a loaf make scores cuts with a sharp knife to help release the trapped gases this will prevent the loaf from breaking preheat the oven to 200 deg c just before putting the loaf to bake i brushed egg yolk on top of the loaf bake it for 30 minutes cool on a wire rack i don t remember when was the last time i was relishing the bre...
