Noodle Nuances

Red cabbage, capsicum lightly fried with noodles and pepper.


Makes a very interesting combination. Red cabbage is crisp and sweet and has that cabbagey taste that green cabbages have with a shocking colour, so with salt, ground pepper and capsicum, the dish was really enjoyable.

While I could eat the same dish every single day when I was buying them, I find it extremely difficult to motivate myself to eating the same food everyday. Makes the job of solo cooking so much tougher to eat the same stuff. Solo-cooking has to be done with enthusiasm.

Tip of the day: Buy a liter of enthusiasm at your next fuel stop.

Haldi Heights

This is not the sickeningly sweet dish called the kesaribhat served aside the 'kharabath' that I used to have back in my last place of residence. That had little pieces of pineapple, and smaller bits of cashew and raisins.
This is upma with potatoes in it with Haldi. This is like the ginger affiliation that I had a few days ago. All my dishes are going to be yellow.


It is so windy outside today that I am sure all the remaining leaves are shed. I am surprised buildings are still standing. Wind speed is said to be around 50 kmph. I don't know if that is some kind of a storm already?
All those wind noises outside make me feel cozier indoors.

Starchy Slurps



Puliyogare and potato curry. Mom's recipe. She makes the best potato curry.

Oh and this is the picture of the potatoes chasing each other around the pot. They just aligned themselves like this.
