#potato masala wedges

[dendroculus]

i need a new signature recipe and i really think stoner potatoes is it these things fuck beyond belief. it goes like, cut up 4 potatoes (i did small chunks like home fries but you could wedge them)

put turmeric garam masala and curry powder on (amount doesn't matter but use more turmeric because it's good)

heat up oil (BIG pan).

cook it.

put salt on at some point.

stab with fork occasionally to see if it's done and this is crucial: turn the heat up at the end to get em crispy (idk if this was necessary but it was fun)

Everything I had in Fortune Deli

Fortune Deli is a petite Café/restaurant located in the mid of Vellore city. It is a part of a star hotel 'Fortune park' which belongs to ITC group of companies. Deli has a limited menu of their in-house chef’s choice.

Here is an account of everything I had in this particular restaurant with their price. (Everything I had are vegetarian so I have no idea about Non veg in there)

Let’s start with the appetiser.

Chilli cheese fries

It was classic frozen French fries garnished with chilli flakes and grated cheese, it sounds just as how I’ve described. It wasn’t anything special or unique, if you want French fries with mild variation you can go for this or else I wouldn’t recommend (without gst ₹100)

Cheesy nachos and Pommes poutine

The cheesy nachos were really good, flavoured nachos with tomato and onion salsa with spice packed baked with cheese was great flavourful treat.

The poutine was disappointing, Poutine is a dish that has to be served with potato fries with loads of gravy on it with fresh cheese garnish where this was barely coated with gravy and didn’t have much to do with the taste. I’d not recommend trying this here.

When I ordered pommes gratin I got served with the same poutine, when asked about it they refused to agree that they both are the same.

Veg platter

A serving of variety of fries such as cheesy potato shots, potato wedges, tandoori and spring rolls with 3 different condiments to go with the mains. Fried food is always good.

Paneer satay

Cottage cheese skewers grilled with spices coated and served with peanut butter as side. It tasted good, would recommend.

Veg biriyani thali combo

Vegetable biriyani served with onion raitha, paneer butter masala and Gulaab jamun for desert. The spices were perfect and each element complimented the other. Budget friendly, good quantity food.

Chinese combo

Veg fried rice served with mushroom manchurian, sweet and sour chilli sauce, spring rolls and rasgulla for desert. Mild flavours and great portion size.

Cold coffee

Classic cold coffee, mediocre portion size but tasted good.

Now for the prices of all the dishes listed above (without gst):

Chilli cheese fries - ₹100

Pommes poutine/gratin - ₹100

Paneer satay - ₹140

Veg platter - ₹180

Veg biriyani combo - ₹145

Chinese veg combo - ₹120

Cold coffee - ₹130

Why should you go to Fortune deli?

They have a good ambience in there, warm welcoming waiters. Good portion of food within budget. Limited menu.

Reasons to not go :

If you want any food out of the top list, the portion is small and the price is high especially for chaat. Food takes about 40mins to be served from the time you order. Not much variations of food.

Pav Bhaji Hut, 37100 Fremont Blvd, Ste A, Fremont, CA 94536

Did you know that over 15 million people eat pav bhaji on an average day in Mumbai? The popular Mumbai street food started as the lunchtime staple for the textile mill workers in Mumbai in the 1850s. Later, it became a popular street food throughout India. I learned about these pav bhaji facts at Pav Bhaji Hut (PBH).

PBH got its start in Ahmedabad, India. They claim to be the first restaurants and food trucks in the US dedicated to serving authentic pav bhaji. In fact, there’s only one dish on the menu, pav bhaji, with the option to add amul cheese ($2.49) or extra pav ($3,99). An order of pav bhaji is $12.99. You can also ask for an adjustment in the spice level. Traditionally, it is a spicy curry. The Amul cheese was grated. It’s similar to mozzarella, mild in flavor.

They also serve cold pressed juices. Seems a bit strange to have juice with such a rich curry, but given the heat in Mumbai, juice must always sound appealing.

Pav bhaji is a vegetable curry (tomato, onion, potatoes, cilantro, garlic) with a special blend of spices called bhaji masala, served with hot buttered Portuguese rolls. They’re like King’s Hawaiian rolls (also Portuguese-inspired), but PBH doesn’t use King’s Hawaiian rolls. PBH uses Amul butter (a blend of cow milk and buffalo milk) imported from India and cooks on an original Indian tawa pan. It’s vegetarian.

Pav bhaji with cheese: The Amul cheese was served on the side, along with chopped red onions, a lime wedge, and two hot buttered pav. The curry was topped with a pat of butter and chopped cilantro. The curry is very dark and it’s hard to tell what vegetables are in it. It’s like a thick, spicy gravy with mashed veggies. It’s bold in flavor, oily, and heavily spiced. I found it a bit too salty. The amount of cheese they gave me was very generous. I only used a little. I would omit the cheese next time. The hot buttered rolls were the best part – soft, but with slightly crispy edges, buttery.

The space is attractive and has a chain like feel. It’s fairly large and looks newish. Street parking was easy to find and the complex has its own parking as well. I received a 5% cash discount.

Chicken Tikka Roll

Ingredients:

For Chicken Tikka:

500g Boneless Chicken (breast or thigh), cut into small cubes

1 cup Yogurt (Greek yogurt or hung curd)

2 tablespoons Ginger-Garlic Paste

1 tablespoon Lemon Juice

1 tablespoon Tikka Masala or Tandoori Masala

1 teaspoon Ground Cumin

1 teaspoon Ground Coriander

1/2 teaspoon Turmeric Powder

1/2 teaspoon Red Chili Powder

Salt to taste

2 tablespoons Oil

Skewers or toothpicks for grilling

For Assembling Rolls:

4-6 Parathas or Rotis (you can also use store-bought tortillas or wraps)

1 cup Thinly Sliced Onions

1 cup Thinly Sliced Bell Peppers (capsicum)

1 cup Shredded Lettuce or Cabbage

1/2 cup Chopped Fresh Cilantro (Coriander)

Mint Chutney or Tamarind Chutney for spreading (optional)

Lemon wedges for serving

Oil or Butter for cooking

Instructions:

1. Marinating the Chicken:

In a large bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, tikka masala, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt to taste. Mix well to form a smooth marinade.

Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, making sure they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to develop.

2. Grilling the Chicken:

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Thread the marinated chicken cubes onto skewers or toothpicks.

Brush the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. Place the chicken skewers on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. Remove from heat.

3. Assembling the Rolls:

Warm the parathas or rotis on a hot skillet or tawa until they are soft and pliable. Keep them warm in a clean kitchen towel.

Place a warm paratha or roti on a flat surface. Spread a thin layer of mint chutney or tamarind chutney (if using) over the surface.

Place some shredded lettuce or cabbage in the center of the paratha.

Arrange a few slices of onion and bell pepper over the lettuce.

Remove the grilled chicken from the skewers and place it over the vegetables.

Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the chicken.

Squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the filling for extra flavor.

Roll up the paratha tightly into a roll, tucking in the sides as you go.

Repeat with the remaining parathas and filling.

4. Serving:

Cut each roll in half diagonally or wrap them in parchment paper for easy handling.

Serve the Chicken Tikka Rolls hot with extra mint chutney or yogurt sauce on the side, along with lemon wedges.

Tips:

You can customize the filling by adding sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, or pickled onions.

For a spicier kick, add green chilies or chili flakes to the marinade.

If you don't have a grill, you can cook the marinated chicken on a stovetop grill pan or in the oven.

Serve the rolls with a side of potato fries or potato chips for a complete meal.

Enjoy your homemade Chicken Tikka Rolls, perfect for a quick lunch or dinner option!

Swedish facts - food edition

Now food is more individual than the school system and Sweden has ended up incorporating food from many countries and made it into it's own versions. Obviously it's also going to vary between families. It's all over the place really.

Just like this post will be.

Breakfast

🍝 Typical breakfast foods are:

Any type of cereal with milk or yoghurt or sour milk.

Open faced sandwich - crisp bread, toast, limpa (special type of bread loaf) are common aswell as polarbröd (just Google it)

- we often put cheese, ham, turkey, egg, cucumber etc on them. Its not fancy. Maybe nutella or jam/marmelade too.

But since avocados are trendy we obviously also eat avocado toast. (Not Simon though)

Porridge (oatmeal if you will)

Smoothies

Sometimes we'll have boiled eggs with or without caviar (Kalles kaviar. Not Russian caviar)

It's not traditional to eat English breakfast like bacon and baked beans neither is american pancakes but we do like to treat ourselves to these kinds of breakfasts sometimes.

Lunch

🍝Obviously you can eat almost anything for lunch. Especially if you eat at a restaurant. You can usually pick any cuisine you fancy or just a sallad. Sallads are common.

If we talk food that's served at schools it also varies but common dishes are:

Spaghetti Bolognese

Pasta and meatballs

Potatoes and meatballs with sauce and Lingonberries

Fish fingers or the good cripsy fish bits that are much nicer.

Pytt i panna (again google it)

Korvstroganoff with rice (google it)

Chicken tikka masala

Potatisbullar (kindof like hashbrowns)

Dinner

🍝 dinner is going to be just as diverse as lunch. Each family have their own traditions but you eat alot of the same things as for lunch.

Pasta is a staple but of course swedified (Italians step away)

Lot's of creamy pastas with real cream.

Stews are a big thing. Served with rice or potatoes or pasta.

Bearnaise sauce is like the swedes favourite sauce for the weekend and I don't know why.

Steak and chips or wedged potatoes is a pretty common thing to serve on a friday night.

During summer we often barbecue

Swedish "specialties"

🍝 now the word specialities should be taken lightly since many of them are not our own food. We've just claimed them.

Kebab pizza

Swedish tacos

Kebab in any form

Pizza (but not like in italy the diagracious kind)

Pancakes (thin version)

Plättar (tiny pancakes unless you live in the north because then plättar is pancakes)

Ugnspannkaka (pancake that you bake in the oven on a baking tray)

Waffles (again not like the Belgian ones)

Gravad lax (rimmed? Salmon)

Herring in many forms

Meat balls (like at IKEA)

Toast skagen (shrimp toast)

Tunnbrödrulle (underrated af flat bread usually filled with shrimp and sallad)

Varma mackor (does that count?)

Wallenbergare

Biff Rydberg

Palt

Kroppkaka

SEMLOR -HOW COULD I FORGET????

Swedish fika

This one is important so hold your horses.

Sweden is filled with cafes that serves coffee and tea and other beverages but most importantly pastries and baked goods.

Cinnamon buns

Princesstårta(princess cake which is basically vicoria sponge with raspberry jam, whipped cream custard and covered with marsipan)

Jordgubbstårta (strawberry cake with victoria sponge, strawberries, custard and whipped cream)

Danish pastries

Småkakor (different kinds of biscuits)

Sockerkaka (sponge cake)

Kladdkaka (mudd cake)

Muffins

Pie (apple, blueberry etc)

Again the list is endless

🍝 We fika alot. Both at work where we take a coffee break and eat something. Maybe a fruit or a late breakfast sandwich or something from the list above.

🍝 We also meet friends overa fika or take a fika break during a day out shopping.

🍝 We also fika at home and invite people over for just a fika. Many people bake their own things for that.

Snacks

🍝 I think the most famous snack is lösgodis (pick and mix candy)

We also have better chocolate than the US and UK and probably better than most european countries (I said what i said)

Othervise we eat the standard chrisps, cheese doodles etc.

Salty licorice is pretty typical but alot of swedes hate it (myself included)

Traditional holiday foods

We eat very similar things for our holidays since that's what we had available back in the days.

Here are a few things we eat

Salmon

Herring

Ham

Janssons frestelse

Eggs

Ribs

Meatballs

Sausage

🍝I could talk about this forever because there's so much to say but I'm going to stop now

Recipe: Vegan Fuck Off Curry

Hi, and welcome back. For my first recipe I wanted to share something that’s helped me out of a brain hole many a time. When you’re tired and feel like shit there’s nothing like knowing dinner’s taken care of for the next few days because you’ve made a massive fuck off curry. It’s also a great way of using up whatever leftover veg you have - I’ve included some of my favourites but you can replace them with pretty much anything.

The spice amounts are more of a guide than anything - my advice would be to vibe it, taste as you go and add more if need be. I’m not really a big spice guy, so if you like a hotter curry you might find it a bit on the mild side. But if you like a bit of heat that’s not too overpowering, you shouldn’t need to tweak the recipe too much. It’s great with rice or naan bread (or both if you want to live deliciously), but works on its own as a side dish too.

Serves: 4-6 || Prep time: 15 minutes || Cook time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

2 onions

2 sweet potatoes

1tbsp olive oil

3tbsp curry paste (I use Sainsbury’s tikka masala spice paste)

1tbsp garlic paste

1tsp ginger paste

1tsp turmeric

1tsp garam masala

1/2tsp chilli flakes

1x400g tin chopped tomatoes

1x400g tin chickpeas

1tbsp mango chutney

5g coriander (optional)

1 lemon

100g spinach

Method:

Roughly chop the onions. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into bite sized chunks. Fry the onion and sweet potato in the oil over a medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, or until it starts to soften. (You’ll want to use a large saucepan for this because you’re going to end up with an absolute shit ton of curry.)

Add the curry paste, garlic, ginger and spices, and cook for a further 2 minutes, adding a splash of water to prevent the curry paste from burning.

Add the tomatoes and mango chutney to the pan, then drain the chickpeas and add them too. (The liquid can be used as an egg substitute in a lot of recipes, so do save it if you can be arsed.) Top up with about a tin’s worth of water and season to taste. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, chop the coriander (if using) and juice the lemon, saving a couple of wedges for serving. When the curry is ready, add the lemon juice and spinach, and stir until the spinach is just wilted. Serve with your choice of sides and top with the coriander and a lemon wedge.

Week one: India.

Truth be told, one cant do justice to all of the Indian cuisines through one three-course meal. There's an incredible amount of variety and flavours within mere states! Knowing this, I chose to focus on Goan cuisine. I picked this because my family is actually of Goan origin. I recognise my hypocrisy here, having said in my last post that I wanted to expand my culinary horizons, but truth be told I know little of Goan cuisine, and it made sense to me to start with my own heritage. Goa is a small state along the west coast of India. It was a Portuguese colony from the 1600s to the mid-1900s. A lot of Goan cuisines takes inspiration from Portuguese dishes, but they still usually add their own Indian twist to it.

Cutlets (on the upper right of the plate)

Cutlets are, in a sense, Goan chicken nuggets. They are made of minced meat, some vinegar, salt and some vegetables (my family uses onion, chilli, tomato and coriander, but it can vary from household to household). this mix is then rolled into sausages, coated in breadcrumbs and fried. It's a very popular household snack since it's so easy to make. Cutlets are a very good finger food for little children too. I usually eat mine with ketchup, but it's very versatile and can be eaten with most sauces.

Chicken Cafreal (on the lower portion of the plate)

Cafreal was introduced to the Goans by the Portuguese. It's basically just spicy chicken and can be eaten with potato wedges, bread (such as the Goan bread poi), and rive. It was probably the easiest to make since I could just use the premade masala mix (you can make it from scratch, but I didn't have some of the ingredients). I just had to mix it, let it marinate, and then bake it for half an hour or so. To make it from scratch, you'd need ginger, garlic, vinegar, coriander, lime juice and a few other ingredients, so it's still very straightforward. It's very, very rich in flavour and definitely one of the most iconic Goan dishes.

Serradura (also called Portuguese sawdust pudding)

This dessert also has a Portuguese origin. Its made of whipped cream, condensed milk and digestive biscuits. A mixture of cream and condensed milk and crushed biscuits are layered to assemble the dessert. on its own, the cream mixture is very rich, but with the biscuits, it has a very nice balance, almost reminiscent of a deconstructed cheesecake.

How to Make Vegetable Cutlet at Home Step by Step?

LOCK-DOWN AND ME

What I don’t like about lock-down -

Lock down is a situation where people don’t get to travel with their relatives or family. We can’t go for playing outdoor games because the virus will affect us, and it can make us sick so no playing outdoor games and no going out for shopping in the mall. I don’t like growing number of patients of diseases in the country and I also don’t like to use sanitizer again and again but can’t help.

I can’t drink cold drinks or eat ice cream during the lock-down period as cold thing will make me sick but there is something. I had to cancel my outdoor vacation during this summer vacation due to lock-down situation in the country. In school, I used to enjoy travelling to school from home and back but now I don’t enjoy that since I don’t go out

Because of lock-down, there are maid servant coming to the house

What I like about lock-down is -

I can do in lock-down that is spending time with my parents and eating good stuff that my mom makes for me. I can also play with my brother who is one year younger to me, also get to learn cooking from my mom. Sometimes I just sleep half the day because there is no need to getting up early as there is no school or extra coaching.

Now my school has started with online classes. To make it more attractive to students, they have also started with online quiz game. During my school days, I used to get up early in the morning to leave from home but now I can sleep till 8 am. Because of online classes, I learned more things about computers like online video conferencing, chatting, internet access etc. In the online school, teacher can show us many things like videos often. In the online school, we don’t need to write which used take extra time and was painful but with online school, I am just type things in the notepad and save it

Since no maids are coming to the house, I am trying to help my parents with the household work. I have learnt to operate washing machine and I help my mother with laundry and put clothes for drying on the clothesline. I have learnt to sweep the floor and sometimes I chopped vegetables and helped my mom in the kitchen.  

I have also learned to make food items like Tea, Coffee, Potato Wedges, Egg Omelet, Scrambles eggs, Sandwich, biscuit cake, Maggie, red sauce pasta, French fries, tomato omelet, Dosa (cheese/masala) and cheese toast. These things I could learn during lock-down period since I was free for the whole day after my online classes.
