From West to East.. Coastal affair

We all have some kind of inspiration in our life. Be it small or big, it changes the way of thinking and gives us an insight to do something different. Oops !! I forgot that this page was not created for giving some lectures but I can take some liberty here.

Ok...Since I have not been cooking from a long time, the recipes cooked by me has been savored by very few. I am always quite embarrassed to cook in front of my mom. It makes me feel as if something will go wrong. I have tried only one recipe "Pyaaz ki Kachori" (Onion stuffed fried Dumplings) with her, though a Rajasthani one. Fortunately, it came out quite well :-) 

Thanks to the Pune snack shop which gave me a new recipe to try out at home.

 Like my mom, my dearest friend have never got a chance to taste food cooked by me. I call her almost every other day and keep telling that i have been cooking some authentic Bihari cuisines. Though, she  is a great cook herself since long time ( at least she can cook for me !!!). 

We have been in touch since when I knew only eating and relishing the food. Cooking was always an undesirable dream (duty :( ) for me. I would never ever have thought of taking up of something like this. Its you who make me feel so good about our recipes on which we have grown up. We both take immense pride in that. Even we have grown up in two different places, but the essence of food remained the same. 

Your encouragement was always there, whether we were in college or in kitchen today...

Thanks for reminding that I could do something like this ( Do I sound like Hanumanji or what?) 

Today we are coast apart but I know you can understand my feelings..our food..and best of our times...

Love you moti

Pals...
