Ah! That's my problem _ I hate frozen stuff.
I made Pav Bhaji yesterday evening. It was not so good. Shakthi Pav Bhaji Masala is horrible. Its not powdered well. And it stuck to my throat. :-(
try Everest Pav Baji Masala...its The Best...
Is it, really? Thanks sk.
For north Indian masalas(garam masala, channa masala, pav bhaji etc etc) always try north Indian brands... For south Indian masalas(sambar powder,rasam powder, etc) always go in for south Indian brands... & even region wise it varies... for ex, i don't like MTR sambar powder... I always buy tamilnadu brands or kerala brand... & bisibele bhat... always karnataka brand...like iyenger(best bisibelebhat masala I've ever tried) ,MTR.... garam masala is MDH or everest... Even pakistani masalas are good in case U don't get the north Indian brands...
If U don't like frozen vegs, chop all the vegs(for a week) on a weekend(if U can find time) & keep in in the fridge in ziplock bags or airtight containers...even the potatoes, I chop it & put it in a bowl of water & keep refridgerated...keeps good for a week... Dhals, I soak it & sprout the few that can be sprouted,keep refrigerated... I generally use it within 4-5 days...
Thanks dEv, that was a very useful tip about masala powders. I had never thought of it that way.
Wow! Ur int'd in cooking huh?? :shock: :DQuote:

I learnt how to cook curry (altho Aloo is only one I cud cook properly!) and also rasam....I had to when I was living alone at Singapore & cudn't find much to eat outside, being a veg'n......
However, after being back I've been dependant on my mom (altho I do cook whenever she goes out of town) :)
Well, since I have no other choice, I have to cook, LS. I can have hotel food once in a while but if I have it everyday, it gives my tummy troubles. And I am kind of paranoid about health & hygeine! LOL!
Yes, Aloo is a very flexible vegetable. A chef's delight! U can bake it, fry it ,boil it & mash it, add it to upma, masala stuffing, parathas, koftas, take it with rice, puris, chappatis anything .
I love Aloo.
So am I! :DQuote:

I love Aloo.
Potato is full of starch but if u have the right amt of exercise, aloo won't make u fat.
I love Masala Dosas! I go at least once in 10 days to Sri Balaji Restaurant in Delhi for their exclusive Dosas esp Masala Dosas.
