thats why im afriad to make kacha gosht biryani ..one day im gonna give it a try though

update: the karhai gosht turned fake-biryani tasted great.. it wasn't a total waste after all

Even when I ate meat (Im a Vegetarian now) I liked sandwiches that were made only of vegetables, easy to digest and healthy

i dont like cooking red meat, it takes 2-3 hours for it get tendered where chicken takes 1 hour the most.
i've heard pressure cookers are the best for red meat, meat gets ready in 1 hour or less. I have a big one..but for two people..i need to buy a small one. and i dont even know how to use it

i dont like using shan masala's anymore either.

i wanna make cheese steak sandwiches..but what kinda meat do i have to buy?? sirloin? or like nahari type meat??

can i get the recipe for bhagare bhaigan?? pleaseeeeeeeeee

Also..i wanted to post a really yummy drink recipe..but i dont know if i should post it here or the baking one or create another thread for Yummylicious drinks for parties?

Just put out the red meat in the morning and it'll be ready by the time you start your cooking....my mom does that...

i thought i'd enjoy cooking but i hate having to choose what to cook and finding the ingrediants, really doesnt help that the husband isn't fussy?!

My lamb with okra turned out wonderfully, alas I didnt take any photos.

Next item - South Indian-style coconut fish with lemon rice.

I made that a few days ago, it turned out very well.
I think today I'm going to cook just lamb on its own.

And for the ladies above: If you cook using a pressure cooker, it usually takes only 8-9 minutes for the meat to get tender (depending on the amount of meat), and later you can bhoon it for a few minutes.

A few days ago I was in class, and my cell starts going off in the middle of a lecture. I have Nickelback's savin' me as my tone, and its pretty loud too. I quickly reject the call so it stops ringing, and before I could turn it off completely it starts ringing again, I reject it again. And the third time the prof goes "someone really wants to talk to you, you should take it". So I rush out, accept the call and its my dad: "beta, will you have time to cook today or should I?"

Today I made grilled cheese sandwiches and carrot ki subzi for lunch. with a glass of lassi that my dad made.

for dinner yesterday I wanted a bagel but we were out of cream cheese so I put some gruyere cheese on it instead, tasted pretty good. Not as good as cream cheese, but I ate the whole thing. Gruyere and parmesan are my favorites.

I made chicken biryani last night (my mom in law's recipe). it came out really good, alhamdulillah! the only problem was that I overcooked it slightly, so the rice was kind of dry. but it tasted just like my mom in law's does (and she makes the BEST biryani), so I'm happy.

and the best part is.. no shaan masala required, heh.
