Zabardast.

[Sumerian]

The problem with being sick is you can't eat all the nice and yummy foods :( :( :(

[hasanhh]

al-lbrahimi:  the heathen, pagan Romans had a solution for this. After they could not gorge themselves anymore, they'd go to the vomitorium.

 

 

ahhh, "The Gore, Glory and Gross of Rome"

Rome... was... weird?

[Marbles]

Will ask. I'm sure she has it written down.

[Ruq]

^ Much appreciated Marbs, thanks.

[hasanhh]

al-Ibrahimi, (salam)

 

Rome wasn't "weird", but to us, kinda sick-in-the-head

 

Marvelous engineering, oratory, and commerce though.

Self made pizza with salad and Orangina :D

[Marbles]

Blissful...

At the dentist's today, I had to suffer through a cooking show. The two shows were much worse than having a tooth pulled.

 

The first one, "Billy something", was playing around with grating his own cheese, making his own waffle mix, using his own waffle-iron, blending honey into a berry drink of some-concoction...

...and l'm sitting there thinking, "why not just buy something to throw into the microwave?" That is why supermarkets and corner stores sell this stuff for. Yarrabi.!

Plus, he now has to wash all that stuff. I ain't.

 

Then there is a second show, where the woman -Alice or Alicia, l guess-  is "resetting"  her refrigerator by using up all this junk she accumulated. She even mentioned "freezing bread" and even l  know that ain't gonna work. (Besdies, that is where l store my pizzas)

She did this. Then she did that. And talking the whole time. So.....I haven't the foggiest idea of what she was doin'.

 

By now, the dentist has pulled a broken tooth, stuffing gauze into the hole, tells me she's finished...

 

and l was soooooo blank damned relieved to get away from that TV. Dang!

 

And l ain't supposed to eat until tomorrow, but......

Lunch: I think I'm going to see what leftovers I have. Hungry right now.

Supper: turkey meatloaf burgers and oven fries.

Pizza, home style, with 5+ cheeses, sauerkraut, added tomatoes, potatoes, oregano, pepper and basil.

Gooooooood

Sauerkraut? Really? On pizza?

[Gaius I. Caesar]

Salaam, sister notme

By coincidence, I am having pizza for dinner. :)

Pizza is one of my favorite foods.

[Gaius I. Caesar]

Had meatballs for the topping, too bad no onions. My mother forgot to get them, would have been very good.

[hasanhh]

Yes, sauerkraut. I also sometimes top with a dash of mustard, but if you try this, maybe thin a dab with water and put it over only one area. Otherwise the taste is too strong.

 

 

Oh, do not try pickles. Blaaaaah

[Journey of Truth]

Butter chicken... I had it first a few months ago in an Indian restaurant. very very nice. Had it for dinner tonight.....

[Marbles]

Butter chicken.

 

Murgh Makhani...

 

Butter chicken is what Westerners call it :dry:

Looks delicious, but probably not so healthy!

Murgh Makhani...

Makhani means butter, no?

[Marbles]

Makhan is butter, makhani is buttery.

[notme]

Makhan is butter, makhani is buttery.

 

So we should call it buttery chicken, not butter chicken?  

[mina]

"Looks delicious, but probably not so healthy!"....i replace somethings like the bread and eat more vegetables and olives.And of course, i don't eat that everyday.

[Marbles]

So we should call it buttery chicken, not butter chicken?  

 

No, Butter chicken is right in English but Murgh makhani is right in Urdu. That's how it's known.

 

They aren't the same anyway - quite a difference between Western and desi varieties.

I've never had it, but I've seen pictures and recipes.  I'm sure if I made it, it would be different from anyone else's.  I sort of just cook, not precisely follow the directions.  My younger son is learning how to cook.  I always encourage him to follow the recipe, but he almost always does his own thing - and he's usually better at it than I am, at least with the spices.  I have experience, but he has a natural knack for spice/seasoning.  He just knows what will be good together and in what proportions.

I had yesterday roasted cauliflower with lemony brown butter and mashed potatoes.

[notme]

For dinner last night, we had roasted potato casserole. It needed no acompanyment. Had it for breakfast too. It may make another appearance tonight as a side dish with our meatloaf - which my son wants to make.

[Against oneself]

This week I have mostly been eating raisins.

[Noor al Batul]

My little sister made something delicious- in Germany, we call them "Nussecken", translated into English it would be probably: nut slices or nut triangles. Though, we didn't have any hazel-nuts, so she used almonds - it tasted better than the ones you can buy from the backery :D

[Maryaam]

Yummmy     I would like some of those right now!  They have nuts in them so they are kind of healthy :P
