Dish of the month - February

For the month of February I made curry puffs. The biggest compliment I ever got for my cooking - my wife asked me to make more late in the night. And this is after having had our dinner already! I was thrilled at my success. I would rate them as a 7 on 10 for taste and a 9 on 10 for effort. I took some time this month to decide what I was going to make. Once I had the idea, the logical thing would have been to look for a recipe. We however decided for some reason that it had to use the same rolls that are used for making croissants. Now the rolls for croissants give it a sweet taste. And that clashes awkwardly with the taste of the curry. Moreover, the pastry does not puff and is not fluffy. After doing some research online, I figured out that there are puff-pastry sheets that you can buy at Walmart. Once I had this, the cooking was a piece of cake. As much as it hurt me to throw away the previous batch of "curry-croissants", I was glad that I came back the next day and successfully made curry puffs, not once but twice! Thats my second "baking" dish for this year, and I will defeinitely break the monotony for the next month.

Preparation of dish of the month - January

You first fry the veggies that you choose to use. It was nice to use our new cookware, somehow makes the color of the veggies look good!

Pressure cook the potatoes that go on to become the "base" of the quiche.

As promised a while ago, here are pictures from my potato quiche that I made in January. The picture looks lot better than it actually tasted!
