1. cook rice as usual & mix req amt of salt to it.
2.grate as much carrots as u want... I usually add equal amts of carrots & rice...ie,for a cup of cooked rice,I'll take same quantity of carrots...U can modify it to ur taste...
3. chop a few green chillies,curry leaves & onions,cori leaves
4.Heat oil(2 tsp)...add chana dhal & urad dhal(abt 1 tbsp)...let it brown a bit... then add chillies,curry leaves & onions...fry until light brown...Now add the grated carrots & fry until 3/4 cooked...the carrots should be a bit crisp even after the whole cooking...I like it that way...IF u want to,U can cook it fully...I usually add 1 or 2 tbsp of water for cooking the carrots coz I use less oil...If U want to,U can cook the whole thing by adding a tbsp more of oil...add salt for the carrots...mix well...
4. Now add the rice to it & mix well...cook until it rice is warmed up...
5.Add cori leaves & take off flame...
Hey Thats really so easy to make let me try it and let u know....Quote:

Hi ,
Anyone good at ethiopian cooking here?...I once tried the tef bread(something like wheat flour dosa) & lukku akkavi(chicken curry that tasted almost like tikka masala) & a few other chutney kind of things...It was awesome... If anyone has any tried & tested ethiopian recipes,pls post it here...esp Lukku akkavi...:)
Also,for the guys in US try out this cuisine... If I remember right,the name of the restaurent I visited goes something like this...Blue Nile ... I am not very sure abt the name but it had the word Nile....It was in minneapolis...not very sure if it's a chain of restaurents throughout US...
Hello
Just curious to know if Iron can be had with Calcium?
I read in lot of books that calcium supresses Iron absorbtion
Is it true? That means milk cannot be added to any spinach recipes
But I know this as a fact that Iron with vitamin C is a very good combination. VitaminC helps in full absorbtion of Iron
Can anybody start a Nutrition thread, that gives tips on the health aspects in cooking.
Thankyou
Rajsand

Yes Dev,
There are many pockets of early Chinese immigrants that settled in various parts of India. Many of the early dentists in India were of Chinese origin and many of the women ran beauty parlor's.
They assimilated into the indian culture and created a "fusion cuisine" of recipes they inherited and spices/veges they found locally.
This is the Chinese food that we consume today in India..... obviously not all the recipes are the same, but the fried rice...stir-fried dishes are pretty much the same that one would eat in a one of those households
If you travel to say Beijing/Shangai and ask to eat "Chicuan"style foods < phonetic> familiarly known as "Seczhuan" is a spicy style of cooking and you will see the similarity immediately after you put a spoonful in your mouth!
I'm not sure if you have heard of the term "Unani davai" ~ Medicines from Yunan, practioners of this form of medicine/pharmacology have lived in India from the early 1600's....
......so coming to your question is there real Chinese food in India, they have been here a LONG time!
