rahulrulezz Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Alright guys, I am gonna admit it. I didn't even know how to cook rice or boil water till 2 months back. But I found this hidden talent. I absolutely love cooking now. In last 2 months, I have cooked Shahi Panner, Matar Paneer, Rajma, Sambhar, Chole, various daals and they were all absolutely awesome. My family love my food and I cook almost every day. So Icfrs who enjoy cooking, come out and share your recipes and thoughts.

gaurav92 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 I love to cook as well :woot: I cook many curries, daals, rice items, but I can't make round Rotis (can do it with the help of a dhakkan or a roti maker only).
AmreekanDesi Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Wow what a timing. One of the proudest achievements of my life (in a lighter sense) happened this morning/afternoon when my friend and I successfully cooked biryani :D
Precambrian Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 I know how to cook delicious maggi. :proud:
BlackMamba Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Dude share ur Chole recipe man...any special ingredient or masala? Well let me tell you the 1st step in making of a good cook. Cooking is an art, not a science. No fixed formulas. If you want recipes there are tons of videos from 5-Star chefs in India. But will the final dish turn out to be the same ? If it did, every Indian would be at a least a 3-star chef. I look at recipes, put in in my own thoughts into it and come up with dishes which are good, some which don't and I keep experimenting, till i strike the right cord. Sometimes it is not to be the case and I give up. I can make Chole from simply 5 or 6 ingredients -- Onions, Tomatoes, Chickpeas, Ginger-Garlic, Turmeric, Coriander (seeds and leaves) to some exquisite variety of it using masala powder (which I concoct my own) using regular spices and both will turn out to be good. Simple things like -- how you cut your onions, go a long way in defining how your end product will turn out to be. Other day I went to restaurant and asked for onion--chili dosa, he had cut onions into quarter-inch squares and threw them on the dosa gave it to me. I almost called the manager and wanted to give him a piece of my mind. Clearly the A-hole does not know what the hell he is doing. Personally -- Onion for a dosa should be so thinly sliced that the rawness of it evaporates while on the tawa and still maintains it juice, which is what makes the dosa good. Anyways I will pm you my "simple" chole recipe -- soon. I have to head out right now.
cowboysfan Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Vegetarian food is simple and doesn't require any expertise in cooking at all.

Well, found it a bit ironical that you say there aren't fixed formula and that you insist on a particular type of cutting for onions :giggle: Enjoyed the anecdote though. I personally prefer square cut onions in dosas. Gives me that crunch.
cowboysfan Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 i make excellent chaa :two_thumbs_up: Me too,I like try different cuisines of the world,I made some miso soup last week and it was Delicious.
