I cooked pasta, as an accompaniment to a good game. Unfortunately we had visitors. My husband's aunt. Cousin aunt actually. She unexpectedly showed up with her husband. No call. No text. No warning. Nothing at all. And she stays less than two kms away and she turned up just today of all days. Maybe after a gap of 3 years. I missed almost all of the MI innings 'entertaining' her. Not just that. She ate the pasta and said that its not al dente. What the hell even? You come unannounced. Shamelessly eat food that is so obviously NOT cooked for you. And then you act all Gordon Ramsay on me. What is worse that she feels it necessary to hold my hand and sit next to me when speaking with me. My voice can travel across the room. My vocal cords aren't connected to my palms. My palms needn't be pressed if you want me to talk. Where did this habit creep into our culture from? 2 hours of mindless yapping and 80% of pasta later, they left. I had to eat regular food from the day before. I could only watch the last 10-12 overs of RR batting. Which was worth nothing anyways!! And these people are rich. And she gave us some really tacky wall clock for as a wedding gift; which I gave away inside 2 days. Another reason to totally detest her. /end rant At least we won. Top of the table.

Did you overcook your pasta? been there done that. But if anyone tells me that, I would have told them to go make their own food.
maniac Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 @Mariyam your aunt probably had the guts to call it like it is, something your husband will probably never be able to do

Cooking it in wine/ til (sesame seed) oil also works with pasta. Any other oil and its easy to over cook. Edited October 8, 2020 by Mariyam

But pasta for me has always been beswad regardless of who cooks. I always end up putting a lot of cheese before eating it with lots of garlic bread Mariyam 1
Mariyam Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 What should be the line up against Delhi? Maybe the management shouldn't tinker too much with the side. The current set up is working just fine. Maybe, just maybe, McClenaghan/Malinga for Pattison?
