As mentioned in my previous post, I am very much excited to present Mrs HAAG (She preferred to be addressed like that, since these are Initials of her name) The lady originally from India, is now settled abroad , but Thankfully she still likes Sindhi food.Without any more delay I hand over to dear Haag, but not before expressing my heartfelt gratitude that she actually bothered to write the recipe and provide pictorials too. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. It all started when I tried to call my mom in India and wanted to talk to her.I could not(due to some reasons) so the whole…

As far as my memory goes, I was the most non fussy kid amongst siblings,where eating vegetables was concerned.I adored Bitter gourds and bottle gourds as much as Paneer and Potatoes.My father who is a real foodie, encouraged us to eat everything from vegetables to fruits, nuts to berries. Every Sunday, he used to purchase a whole lot of vegetables from Veggie Market and while other kids in family made faces at sight of Ridge gourds and eggplants, I used to be the one who would wait for their turn in next meals Life was all about simple pleasures then,…

The Festive season is gone, but it took some time for the feeling to sink in ! So till then I kept cooking some more sinful food in my Rasoi. Pakora curry being one of them, I enjoy making this, coz ; it is so easy and handy when miraculously your refrigerator is free from wilting/dying/decaying vegetables. So during such phase I have few options to cook, other than dal and rice.And since this recipe calls for the simple ingredients that are generally available in pantry, this is a quick fix dish for catering unexpected guests.

Before the invasion of Paneer (cottage cheese) in Sindhi kitchens, Beeh or Lotus stem or kamalkakdi enjoyed the Numero Uno position,where festive food was concerned. Beeh and Dingri (mushrooms) were supposed to be the food for family functions, marriage ceremonies, festivals etc, when nonveg was restricted . Here is an information about Lotus stem that I collected from few wonderful sites . Lotus roots (or stem) nourishes the blood, removes blood stasis and improves blood circulation.Consuming the lotus root also helps your liver function effectively. It is highly lauded for strengthening the heart, stomach and spleen. Apparently, drinking uncooked lotus…
