ratatouille


Welcome back folks!I hope all’s well in your life...Well although I really don’t much care of your wellbeing, but I definitely want the heavens to keep you alive enough to visit my blog and increase the visitor tally!..lolzz...so here you go now,,,sit back and enjoy the new blog of your wellwisher :D
I hope you like it :)

This blog we head straight into my kitchen and catch some live action there...Well tell you what mom had to wait all 18 years of my life to apparate her daughter into the kitchen..
But first sem after I returned home wid a CC in phy lab, mom struck gold,,,” Really,its your clumsiness that played foul” mom said “But no worries, if you learn cooking honey, I am so sure you will get over that! Come on if you learn frying in hot oil, and making rotis and timing one action with the other, then why not your practicals will get easier by tons!!”

And thus began my cooking saga...From burnt aata(aka rotis) and suspicious looking brown potion in the name of tea I have recently progressed into baking cakes and brewing hot tomato soup! Blink _blink :D
Initial kitchen trips compromised mostly of observation sessions..all day long I just had to see mom doing it all, and see and see and well actually I was even expected to learn I guess ...dunno :D..but the blissful little lukkha stage ended soon giving way to the doing stage...and what marvellous doing i did!!!...rotis as i said earlier were nothing but black holes here and there ..I tried dosa making too but the frying pan loved my dosas so much that the pan refused parting away with it and so when i tried to lift the dosa out for serving I had to scrap it out of the pan and finally it got served as a bhurji !!!!..
but then dad’s birthday was approaching...and I wanted to make it really special for him...It was then that I took it in my heart to bake a cake, cook a nice special dish and stuffs...For the first time I really wanted my food to taste tasty,,,and the miracle occurred (or so I have made my family swear by)..
Suddenly, the rotis curved circular, they even fluffed ball like at times! My tea started getting served even to the guests( poor victims !)....great!..
Just before the D day, I decided to bake a practice cake first!!...I pored over cooking books and phoned my cousins noting down points and recipies...God I really wanted it taste tasty!!...Zeroing on the easiest procedure perfect for a beginner I did my first cake!!...but poor me...I over baked the cake turning it into a Hagrid styled rock cake!!
But yes, just like Hagrid even I insisted every one on trying my delicacy!!(I know you sympathise my family so much by now!)...

On the D day I again redid my experiment!..this time I did perfect ovens and voila!!!....The cake was ready!!!...
Fluffy and soft and yummy!!!!...It was such an amazing feeling :D :D :D My cake, my cooking!! Machaxx :D :D

......... Hmm...i have tried so many things after that, soup and Manchurian et al....and may be mom was right..guess what this sem I got 9 in chem lab!!... :D :D :D...wowie....and now.. its mom’s bday on cards...25th this month!!!.... wanna come home for dinner mr.reader????? :D
