Asian Cuisine - Week One

Well, you all have permission to send blog snowballs and full moons and every other annoying spam at me because, I admit it... I had my camera in my backpack that I left in my CAR and I didn't have a chance to run outside and get it between the time we got everything plated and it was all scrapped into the trash.

Yes, you heard me, in the TRASH.

We made Northern Indian food and it was definitely interesting to say the least. I had mentioned that I had stopped and ate Indian food one day for lunch last week but this was even more interesting.

In a full class we had 6 tables cooking 9 items. I sure wish I had my camera in the room so you could see this weird stuff, but I am going to see if I can find pictures of some of it on the internet and add it the post later.

The Menu
Aloo Dum (Green Spicy Potatoes)
Plain Basmati Rice
Mulligatawny Soup (Orange Lentil, Potato & Apple Soup)
Chickpeas with Garlic and Ginger
Chicken Moghlai
Carrot Thurum (Grated Carrot Curry)
Mango Chutney
Mewaii Kabab - Deep-Fried Curried Lamb and Dried Fruit Meatballs
Lassi - Rose-Flavored Yogurt Drink

I made the Potatoes and the Meatballs. The entire time I was making the meatballs I kept telling myself how I was NOT going to like them... but believe it or not, I ended up liking the meatballs and the chutney the best out of all of it. It was all weird, but edible... until we got to the Lassi.. and then I just had to gag.

This class will not be meeting next week because of Columbus Day.. so I promise not to post pictures of the Southern Indian Cuisine until October 17th.
