“It’s probably illegal to make soups, stews and casseroles without plenty of onions.” -Maggie Waldron It’s hard to imagine my food without Onion and Garlic. The flavor of Onions and Garlic being sautéed in the ‘tadka’ is simply irresistible. Especially in the evenings nearing dinnertime, you go for a walk and you are sure to get this irresistible aroma from someone’s kitchen window. Both onions and Garlic add the required ‘zing’ to my food. Here’s a simple starter from Tarla Dalal. Very quick and easy to make; yummy to taste-family opinion. Baby onions (I used Madras onions) and mushrooms sautéed…

Cauliflower Curry
I am back after a long hiatus (the longest since I started blogging). A short trip to Coorg and then some unavoidable reasons kept me away from the blogoshpere. But now things are under control and I hope I am able to post regularly. Here’s a very simple and quick Cauliflower curry to make a spicy comeback on My Foodcourt! The addition of spices like cinnamon and pepper dominate the strong Cauliflower smell. This is one of my favourite ways to cook cauliflower hope you like it too. __________________________________________________________
Gavarichi Bhaji (Cluster beans curry)
Gavar-Cluster Beansis a popular vegetable in Maharashtra. They are available all year round here for a very modest price. The only hitch in buying these beans is the time taken to cut them- remove the ends and string them along, pulling the edged fibre. Pluck into small pieces (with hand) at the nodes of the pods. Tender Green Cluster bean pods spiced up with some Kala/ Goda Masala dish up a delectable curry that can be served with Roti or Rice. __________________________________________________________
Dadpe Pohe (Spiced Beaten Rice)
This is a long pending post; so long that my friend S asked me to post it when I started blogging; and that was more than a year ago! Dadpe Pohe is one of those dishes which ‘no-one can eat just once’ – Very addictive. I can eat bowls of this when it is made; hope all of you like it too. S Dadpe Pohe specially for you from this Sudama! J _________________________________________________________Dadpe Pohe recipe Serving: 1 person; if you are like me otherwise it serves 2
