I enjoy most foods but I get bored easily so I experiment with different spice combinations. Last week I tried sambar masala. I bought sambar powder to make sambar but I used it in everything else. On Sunday night I made eggs with it and it was refreshing and absolutely delicious. The spice was just right, with a hint of black pepper heat, a zing and a bit of tang. It was ready in 15 minutes. I think potatoes or paneer would also taste lovely. Chickpeas would be great too. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

If you are like me a pasta/ rice or any carb lover.. you will like this.

Miso Pasta( with chicken or replace chicken with tofu or paneer maybe) : A quick, 15-minute "umami bomb" that blends Japanese fermented soybean paste with Western pasta technique.

All I have used is about 15gm butter n 4 clove of garlic to fry the 500gm chicken. At the same time boiled the pasta as well.
While pasta getting boiled, added white miso paste to the chicken. Then added cherry tomatoes, capsicum, oyster mushroom and spring onions. And for the zing added umami Thai crispy prawn chilli sambal.
That’s all for a week night dinner. Balance of my favourite carb and protein.

I don’t know how people live without rice or pasta or potato or anything carb. Carb is joy of life.

Between the slices is the amazing potato and egg filing. Like all my videos this is unedited using single hand to record while i am actually making for our breakfast. This is not done for the post. This is as real as it can get. Simple easy home food that one can make. It was light yet different from our everyday work breakfast. It took me 40 mins from thinking to serve the first sandwich to my daughter. I boiled the egg n potatoes simultaneously hence that saved me time. It had the perfect zing from the onion, chilli and the lime. I feel the black salted added a dimension to the sandwich as well. All in all it was a happy start to the day. Give it try! You might just like it.

I had to the try the trend of rubbing knife on something crunchy to show it’s crunchy.. it was bit silly but fun though

Easy Aloo er Torkari ( potato gravy ) for breakfast. It is not a traditional Bengali recipe. Ofcourse one would not add egg in aloo er torkari but I added so that we get to eat our eggs too in the morning. So it’s a recipe for convenience which tastes good as well. Now taste good is relative. So please let’s not go into the comparison of how is this in relation to real deal aloo torkari… that will be bit unfair… but if you are like me.. likes easy time saving cooking, light taste abd still gives the feeling of aloo torkari then you got the recipe … you should be able to base this an md make your own style.. that’s the point…

I have used potato, tomato, turmeric, red chilli powder, cumin powder, green peas, egg, mustard seeds, asafoetida, coriander leaf and green chilli. I think you can add more veggies too like carrot maybe …

This video is from Jan… ofcourse I am posting is now as I need space …
