My men's favourite Indian food is any kind of South Asian or Middle Eastern Bread but again not only with Raita and Achar / Pickle.... there has to have a chicken or lamb curry. You bet there always is because the fat old lady is very much concerned about her chopsticks. The senior would have raita as a second sides with his favourites as this anda paratha or keema paratha but the junior will not even touch yogurt. It is not his fault, the mother fed him so much of yogurt as a child that he got averse to yogurt now. Same with the senior, he got apple and banana everyday to school and now the sight of those irritates him. The one who sat beside him then can say better.... hahaha. However, I realised sitting beside or say sitting together within a classroom does not make one each other's friend, friendship is an altogether different equation. I conclude that in a classroom of say thirty people, all cannot be your friend... some are friends..... rest are just classmates. I may be wrong.... given my lack of wisdom. My known circle can blame the idiotic self as reason for my husband getting distant with some people, or is it like what is to happen will happen? As of me I am averse to certain attributes of some that I do not want any kind of renewed relationship with them, they did no good to me however innocent they pretend to be to the world. However, by God's grace nothing bad has happened to me till date..... I do not know about future.
Heartbreaks are ok for me, rejections too because each person is different... hence their choices too ..... what I cannot stand is exploitation because the present self hates to be that user friendly that I had been earlier. Whoever is trying to get me play match-match game I do not want to be part of .... is only irritating me.... I am late to understand but when I realise all these I simply get pissed off. Since I cannot plead innocent like some who were actually not at all so ..... I have to vent it out and I prefer to compile everything on my blog which is also my 'Life Tales.' I sincerely hope people do not force me to bare open my heart totally and publicly.... let us stay away from each other maintaining a respectable distance. If your sole intention is to irritate me then go ahead, I will set my own track. Rest... the colour of a saree, dress, lipstick does not matter, most of the time I forget who wore what the last evening.... the forgetful self is occupied in her own world.
See how I lose track. Actually there were a couple of birthdays yesterday and day before of dear people of whom all are not Bengali. This Dim Porota / Anda Paratha is not a birthday like post but I wished to say Hi! I care; to all those who mean, for the rest do not get on my nerves, I am a scorpio..... though I know some take advantage knowing I cannot do wrong to people who mean. Anyways, as I say all kinds of Breads are favourite with my men.... Western, South Asian or Middle Eastern. At home, I preferably do some varieties, rest I am scared to try thinking I cannot perfect them. I think I have to try soon. This egg parathas are really a joyful venture.... beat the eggs, chop the onions, chillies and coriander leaves.... mix all and go ahead. I served it with a bowl of yogurt, chilli-tomato sauce and a self made mango pickle. Come, let us do it together.
INGREDIENTS :
Refined Flour : 1coffee mug
Wheat Flour : 1/2 coffee mug
Egg : 3
Chopped Coriander : 1 small tea cup
Chopped Onion : 1/2 small tea cup
Chopped Green Chilli : 1tbsp
Black Pepper Powder : 1/2 tsp
Salt : 1/4 tsp
Oil : 1tbsp + a little to brush each paratha
METHOD :
Remove the cover & knead the dough again for 2-3 minutes! Tear off tennis ball sized portions and smoothen the balls with help of both palms.
Dust each ball with flour and roll out round sized parathas with help of the rolling pin.
Heat the pan on the gas top and place one paratha at a time. Dry roast both sides till they turn little brown. Brush oil atop each side, roast & take ou & transfer to a plate.
Serve the dim porota / anda paratha with plain yogurt, some pickle, chutney or sauce of your choice.
A very unique way of preparing Egg Paratha. I loved the idea of adding beaten eggs to knead the dough. I am egg crazy. Can survive on eggs. A perfect breakfast dish for me and so so yummy .
ReplyDeleteThank you dear... it was truly a good idea to add beaten egg to the dough which helped make softer parathas.... You know na T loves eggs too much...
