Re: The Art of Cooking
my bro and I were spoused to make dinner on friday because family was coming over and my mom wasn't going to be home to cook. my brother burnt the brownies to a crisp and i fell asleep while the chicken was defrosting. im hoping she never asks us to do that again

Of course that's a compliment, it looks so yummy! 
I got the 'Curry Bible' as a gift for my 18th birthday when I went to Karachi. The author is Madhur Jaffrey and she includes recipes from Indo-Pak as well as adaptations of desi recipes from people who live in S. Africa, Indonesia, England etc and had desi ancestors . I stole my mom's old rice cooker, she never liked it but it works fine for me. The brand is Aroma.

Re: The Art of Cooking
I came home and there was some lobia salan (curry of black-eyed peas) which nobody in my family has made for years now. Years.
So I ate some and I was like "Wow, this is so good" and my mom was like "Your grandma made it, that's why" and I was like... wow.
She hasn't cooked for a while ('cause she was sick and had surgery), but now that she's starting to again, it's great. Hehe.
I heart my grandma.

I realized that she would have made us mooli ke parathe. She probably had some, and if not, we could've gotten some mooli.
Too bad.
