As
I wrote once I eat the vegan way on the weekdays because it's good to my
health. I never could be vegetarian and probably never will and I always
thought that eating a dish without meat means more hunger and have a feeling to run a chips bag and the cookie jar. Not every vegan dish is this or maybe I chose the
right ones what make good
cheer as they are beside that they are healthy and tasty. I don't know, but this week I tried out some new recipes.
At last
the taste/recipe I've searched for. I love korma but neither my previous home tryings
nor the pre-made ones were not the same as that taste I love in my fave Indian restaurant on Budapest. So I'm glad I've found exactly the same taste. I made this from potato, carrot, green pea and zucchini.
This 'VegRecipes of India' blog is very good, I tried many things from it and worked and
tasted wonderfully, and if I want I add some white meat. The recipes looks very complicated and circumstantial at first, but I made my dishes on the easiest way I could, especially because the maximum time in our tiny kitchen I can endure is 1 or 1 1/2 hour, not a minute more... Probably I not very do the authentic way of Indian cooking but the taste is great at the end and this is what only matters to me.
Next was Kenyan Masala French Fries
First
I made it from real potato instead of frozen pack... I never use can tomato
either only the paste sometimes, so I add 4 tomatoes, chopped. Beside the much coriander - and tonnes of chili - I add
a little bit of cumin, ground ginger, cinnamon, fennel seeds and turmeric. These spices in one are the Royco
Mchuzi[1], Kenya's famous spice mix for almost every dish but especially for beef.
And last although my ketchup is not homemade or the common kind but the kid version from the
supermarket [100% natural, without starch, preservatives and dyes, I love the kid stuffs more and more...], beside tomato it made from
other vegetables, fruits and spices so this also gave to the sauce a special taste.
You can make this as a side dish or like me just stuff as it is... Great!
After
the korma I tried another favourite of my from India out of happyness. Also by
'VegRecipes of India' I made the Dal Makhani [in our simple kitchen language:
lentil in spicy tomato sauce Haha] It
was a success as well and also the same taste as in that restaurant.
So
this was a happy week Hahaha [leastwise at home, some of the annoying colleagues in
the office were extra annoying on this week, maybe because of the aspect
of planets…?
or not… but why always find only me to shout at when they are in a bad mood, because they think I'm just a worthless office assistant...? Fuck them all... I'm the one who could honestly shout a big... being among these uncultured jerks for almost 9 hours from Monday to Friday...] Anyway, next time I'll try to post a Hungarian recipe already, I promise. It's just if I cook/try something new delicious thing I need to share with someone... it's a family tradition Haha So if I have this blog now I share with the readers, maybe they have the same taste or just for.
Good Day!/Szép napot! ✌
