Butternut squash, potato and carrot mush

I used what I had to make a mush. Cut up the veggies into small pieces and cookdown covered on low heat with golden ray for about 30 minutes. Seasoned with fresh seasoning, Italian seasoning and maggi seasoning. Served with homemade stovetop bread with garlic butter. Same bread recipe as yesterday but without the cookeen and used less cooking time and it came out perfect. I drizzled some tamarind sauce on the mush. Man this tasted so good.

Medley lunch

I decided to make a medley for lunch of the things I had available. First was roasted baigan or baigan choka. Then chow mein using a chow mein pack I had. This had carrots, sweet pepper and cabbage. I added parsley, shadon beni and celery and garlic and cooked on low heat in golden ray butter. Then I boiled some plantain and made some curly pasta. Pasta was served with parmesan and tamarind sauce.

Stovetop bread

Oh the nostalgic smell of homemade bread baking in the house. To go with some garlic butter and wash down with coffee. First time I was doing this and I was not sure it would work out. I saw others doing this stovetop bread online so there was hope. My mom told me she made stovetop bread when I was little using a three burner countertop stove. An oven stove was a luxury in those days. Any bread dough recipe will do. Knead and rise the dough. Oil the pot. Knead the dough again and rise again, this time in the pot. Cover while cooking on the very lowest heat for about 25 minutes. Next time I will try 15 to 20 minutes because this time the bottom was too charred. I cut out the charred bottom before serving. I ate some of it as it tasted like a crunchy bread cracker. I think this needs fine tuning and I am up for the challenge. The insides were most delicious though. *I tried it again using less time and it was perfect

Golden soft flaky parmesan aloo pies

The dough consisted of cookeen, flour, water, salt, sugar and baking powder. Maybe too much cookeen and why it came out like a french fried pastry. I did not mind because it tasted so delicious. The stuffing was boiled and mashed potato with parmesan, parsley, shadon beni, black pepper and minced garlic. I made 7 balls that I rolled out and stuffed with the aloo and folded. Fried in oil and voila. About a minute on each side.
