Re: The Art of Cooking

I made rice for dinner today with leftover chickpeas. The hubby made some Pillsbury croissants (really cute cuz they were actually good but he rolled them wrong so they were all funny shaped  ) and cookies. :fat:

They sell precooked frozen gyro meat at Desi stores. I found it at the halal meat near my house. There's like 60 slices in a box. You don't have to add any oil while warming it up in a pan. Unfortunately a lot of oil comes out of it already.

Re: The Art of Cooking
i made an amazing eggplant dish yesterday. husband loooved it.
one eggplant, sliced lengthwise.
one onion, chopped
one tomato, chopped
one garlic clove, crushed and minced
salt
pepper
cumin powder
coriander powder
1 tbsp tamarind paste diluted in 1 cup water
fried onions (the ones packaged)
on med heat, in a large skillet put in eggplant, onions and tomato. put in salt, pepper, cumin and coriander to taste and toss. pour in the tamarind mix and cover and let simmer for about 45 min-1 hour or until you see everything is blending together (you shouldnt be able to see the original structure of the eggplant.) when you see its all mushed up together when you mix it, there should still be a bit more liquid left.. you then put in the fried onions. just eye ball it. the fried onions will balance the sour taste.
serve with rice.

at my house, we fry up green onions, frozen carrots, peas, shredded chicken with Accent(chinese salt). then cook some rice in a pot(for better consistency than a ricecooker. (add the veggies in the middle after the rice is aldente)
sprinkle in soy sauce to taste and let it steam till the rice is perfect.
