I still hanker for South Indian food after my holiday last month…I recreated 'masala dosa' (crispy pancake with spicy potato). Served with cucumber raitha and lime wedges. Not quite as good as back there, but tasted nice anyway:
Thanks Epi.
I was studying some YouTube videos of South Indian recipes yesterday. I'm keen to recreate the famous 'chicken 65', a dry-ish spicy chicken snack.
This is my first attempt at cooking Chicken Manchurian, a spicy Indo-Chinese popular in South India, where I enjoyed it immensely. This is hardly available in London, so I thought I'd recreate it yesterday.
i wouldn't post your home baking pictures in here, as you get nasty comments being made
Do you really? I am surprised and disappointed about that. This has always seemed like the most friendly placcid part of the forums. Even pets gets wild.
Fillet steaks I got reduced to £6.50 (for two), cooked to perfection! (med-rare). Served with spinach, potato (with cheese triangle) and gravy with black pepper:
Last nights Cottage Pie. Tasted far better than it looked!
Anything with a golden, crunchy, cheesy topping straight out the oven is bound to be delicious, so I can half imagine how good it tasted. Yummyville.
After my New York trip and my newly-acquired taste for buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup, strawbs and whipped cream, I decided to re create it today:
It was delicious, but as a newbie to this style of pancake, I ignored the internet's advice not to over mix the batter, and they were not quite as soft as I would have liked them, but still yummyville all the same, and I will learn for next time.
I spent £6 on the small bottle of maple syrup but it was nowhere near as good as I had in New York.

What brand of syrup? Most does tend to be authentic Canadian so shouldn't be too bad.

It's this one…and on finding this link it seems that this one was specifically made for the UK market, why didn't they just give us the good stuff?! lol

Beautiful food and photos.
I was studying some YouTube videos of South Indian recipes yesterday. I'm keen to recreate the famous 'chicken 65', a dry-ish spicy chicken snack.
And here it is, delicious!
I used this recipe. It was complex but worth it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx2Ddex2u5M
I think Youtube is a really fantastic way to learn cooking.
The only thing I left out was the fresh green chillis, yet the dish was still hot!
As long as your food is alright, ignore people who moan about your pictures. Those pasties look pretty good to me.
How many eggs?
3 in each. These were for the wife & MIL, I prefer a just set one folded over but they like theirs like Frisbees. Peasants!:D

Is that a baked potato with cheese topping?
Questions, questions......:)

TBH, though the technique may be similar it really will taste quite different.
