Ma, what's cooking? Part - 2


Ma, what’s cooking?Part - 2

-          ITC Kitchens of India


Day 2 of my experiments with cooking:

It difficult to search for food that is to my daughter’s liking. So I go to the masters that I buy once in a while in search for something new and appetizing…

Here’s one guru’s recipe from one of her older books:

Kadai Paneer
By Sarla Mafatlal

“Ingredients:

500 grams paneer
100 grams of capsicum
2 teaspoons coriander powder
2 whole red chillies
2 teaspoon kasoori methi
1 chopped green chilly (optional)
2 teaspoons chopped ginger
5 chopped tomatoes…
6 cloves garlic mixed with a little water

Method (Sigh. Is there more?)

1.       Slice the paneer and capsicum into evenly cut strips
2.       1…
3.       to…
4.       8…
5.       steps…
6.       …
7.       …
8.       …”

Darn! Too much work. Where are my Kitchens of India?

Aah, here they are!

Prize one open and pour the contents of the packet into a hot kadai…

Done. 

Serve hot with rotis.

 Bliss!
