Food Journals: September 2018 - Heaps of panicked cooking and dining out


RECIPE CARD: CHICKEN KOKUM CURRY MASALA
It had been a very long time since I had purchased Kokum for Kokum Curry! So, I found a recipe online and got to it. Of course, I did some tweaking! My version does not include hing (asafoetida). Get the recipe HERE.

The past week’s been a mad cooking rush! ••• Dad’s visiting and well ••• he’s very picky with food! ••• He’s banned wheat and rice for the most part and that makes me a very anxious person. I’m highly overworked!
I have been rolling Barley and Baisan (chickpea flour) rotis (flatbreads). And yes, it’s a whole Kitchenaid mixer dough hook performance!
I have been putting rice dishes on the table for the rest of the family! Tehri (turmeric rice) was the main dish and sugar free Zardah was dessert.
Yam kheer (pudding) was another sugar free dessert!
There were 2 kinds of Dal (lentils): Tadka Channa Dal and Urad Dal fry
And let’s not forget Bhindi (Okra) fry! ••• Phew!!! ••• and Dad’s been using his skillet skills as well, frying up his chicken fillet! ••• There’s been more!
There have been roti making disasters too! Hilarious! The Barley flour soaked much oil and became shortbread like! Crumbled!

DINING EXPERIENCE: ROYAL TAJ - AN INDIAN DINER
September ended with a family dinner cum drama at the Royal Taj, an Indian diner. Good food, over-priced small portions. Will return for a buffet perhaps. I had Malai Kofta, Chicken Biryani, BBQ.
