CURRY AND SPICE: OATS OMELETTE

UNWELL, I AM ON MY WAY TO RECOVERY, SEEKING FOR DRY SPICY FOOD AT THIS TIME!

For my lunch yesterday I had "magur mach er jhol" but disliked it! It was fresh and live but did not taste like what we grew up having, I remember how eagerly I used to wait for a piece of "dim bhora magur er tukro"! The family veteran told me the other day not to buy those magur which are possibly farmed! Then, I saw in the videos how they catch this fish from the muddy puddles. But my home needs them small sized! I sent Cristine last week, as usual she is unable to make the vendor serve as per her choice! This is the reason the fish, meat & vegetables do I prefer to buy myself! I was unwilling to go, I did not have any client; I could not foresee what was coming, the cough & cold!

I enjoyed the rest, even the fish curry, not the fish! I was wanting to have mola, mourala or charaponar jhal chocchori! At times, I miss Kolkata for these trivial things; an hour of body massage for 100 rupees, a choice of fish or duck egg or posto may be!

Last evening, I had a honey cake slice the local stores sell & sky flakes! Last week, I baked a cake with Hershey's Choco sauce I bought for the son last December! I wish to blog about the cake sometime later; it was good although I am not fond of anything with chocolate but I have to finish off the bottle!

Our dinner yesterday was noodles with only "peyaz o dim"! I was about to cook it, Cristine was back home early and cooked it for Sir and Maam! Life seems easy with her around! I am not the kind who wants to get entangled in cleaning services on a regular basis! I wish to cook a bit, sit all day, get engaged in the worldly matters that touches me! I am not interested in the loot, fight and treachery involved in politics!

BECAUSE I AM COVID NEGATIVE, I COULD GO OUT FOR A WALK!

I have to do some kind of an exercise few days a week! I am been asked not to swim or lift weight because of my neck & shoulder pain! I have to walk at least! I do not enjoy yoga, which could have cured my pain & over-weight issues! The problem is, here rain falls without a notice! I went out, a little later it started raining. I was in the shaded area between the Nanyang Junior College & Lorong Chuan MRT and decided to walk to and fro within the shaded area. I do not enjoy walking in the same area, then I am not doing good health wise!

At one point, I felt I have to move ahead, I was feeling hungry and back home I had the plan of doing this for my lunch! Before heading back to the home, I had to buy smoked cheese and yes lighters, one needs cigarette more than anything else in this world. I do not understand why the governments do not increase the levy on the other stuffs and ban smoking, drugs not recommended by the doctors, also restrict the limit of alcohol consumption!

All the way, I was thinking of these and came across George Benson's this instrumental "We as Love" for the first time, his other famous vocals I had listened to earlier! I instantly found out, the movie "Karz's" theme song was lifted from this "We as Love"; in decent language "heavily inspired"! I was in middle school and how I requested to let me watch this starring Rishi Kapoor, Tina Munim, Raj Kiran, Simi Garewal. The teen girl then loved the movie! Way later in life, T would instantly make out which of the Bollywood movies are copied from Hollywood, even the recent Ajay Devgan movie with him as a pilot he told is copied from a Denzel Washington starrer! He used to watch a lot of movies in his sailing days! Gradually, a new line of younger generation of Indian directors emerged with story ideas taken from within the country, without needing to copy! We welcomed! I need the lights to be put off to enjoy "We as Love" and seek peace for all! For many years, I have an interest in Latina music and their history, may be that is the reason why a particular incident is not leaving me! I hope all of the 22 lives would have been surviving today; yes, 21+1 who as a child may have wanted some extra care from the teachers, family and help with the text books! I am sure had the person got some help to secure good grades and company; would have garnered fairer dreams and not seek weapons of destruction! There are so much of online help today, only the right connections are required! What can mere raindrops do to my health? I was talking to one of T's cousin sister last night; I asked her who is a teacher to make sure the last bencher in her class get some good care! Besides school, she coaches privately Accounts & Mathematics to high school students & earned a name in our area!

WHAT IS THIS OATS OMELETTE?

Until I get recovered, I am unable to have even the non-veg curries I cooked; a veg bowl like a dal & young jackfruit curry is fine! I want spicy and hot homemade food at this time. Back from Kolkata, I was having something on my walks around 2:30 pm and again around 4pm something at home, my weight shooted up! I had to put a check, we can! I went out but did not crave to buy anything! Our mind & body are in our control! Back to the home today, I cooked this OATS OMELETTE with boiled potatoes, egg, coriander, onion, chillies, rice flour, refined flour, corn flour, oats in it! It is a non-vegetarian omelette, pancake easy to prepare & I think quite healthy & tasty to have! I did it earlier too and wished to blog about it some day; there are hundreds of existing recipe in the net, I included mine!
