Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya

Fatso i used this recipe from recipezaar but unfort they didnt turn out the way we would have liked. Both hubs and i didnt like them. Maybe because i didnt have bbq sauce and used ketchup instead but i doubt it would have made that much of a difference to want to make them again.

SERVES 4

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped and seeded plum tomato
  • 1 teaspoon minced jalapeno chile, more if you like or serrano pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed,well drained
  • 1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce (I like homemade or Uncle Dougie’s, a brand out of Barrington, IL)
  • 1 egg white, beaten
  • 4 whole grain buns, toasted

Toppings

  1. Heat oil in nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add next onion, plum tomato, jalapeno, garlic and chili powder; sauté 5 minutes.
  3. Cool slightly.
  4. Using fork, coarsely mash beans in bowl.
  5. Combine with onion mixture, breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons of the barbecue sauce and egg white.
  6. Shape mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
  7. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.) It will look as though these little burgers will just fall apart and turn to mush, but they stay together really well once they"hit the pan"!
  8. If grilling, oil the rack or spray grill rack with nonstick spray, then fire up coals to medium heat.
  9. If pan-frying, heat a little olive oil over medium heat.
  10. Place patties on grill or in skillet and cook until golden brown and heated through, about three minutes per side.
  11. Place burgers on buns.
  12. Serve with more barbecue sauce, and cheese, tomato, lettuce, avocado, or whatever topping you like!

Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya

My mum (who's staying with me) cooked a pakistani naashta for us yesterday. I just e-mailed the recipe to my cousin who wanted to make it so I thought let me paste it here for you guys aswell. I took some pictures but can't upload at the moment.

Halva:

1 cup sugar
1 cup sooji
2 and a quarter cup of water
200 grams of unsalted butter or ghee

Place water for boiling and add the sugar to make syrup. Add ilaichi, kishmish, badaam/coconut and leave it on slow fire after boiling.
In seperate pan melt the butter/ghee, add the sooji and keep stirring till it is golden brown colour. When it's the right colour slowly add the syrup (in parts) mixture and keep stirring. When it is the right consistency it's done!

Poori:

250 grams flour (maida)
pinch of salt
1 tablespoon oil
pinch of kalonji seeds

Knead with water and keep it covered for half an hour.

Channay aalu:

2 cups boiled channay
2 big potatoes
1 big tomato
2 medium finely chopped onions

Heat around quarter cup of oil in a pan, add the onions and fry till golden. Add around 1 tbspoon ginger/garlic mixture and crushed green chilli's.
Add all the dry masala's: red chilli powder, haldi, dhaniya powder, salt, zeera powder and a pinch of garam masala and stir. Now add the tomatoes and thori dair bhoono with a splash of water. Now add the channay (and also half a chicken stock cube, if you have it). Dissolve a tbspoon of corn flour in few tbspoons of water and add it to the channay mixture. Boil the potatoes seperately, peel and cut in small cubes and add it at the end when the channay are cooked.
Sprinkle fresh dhaniya and chaat masala on top and you're done!

Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya

Last night’s dinner was chicken alfredo and spinach pizza. IT was ok, i thought the sauce was lacking something and i should have just used the dough we like instead of trying a new recipe. Why do i do that? :frowning:

And for breakfast this morning, i made sunny side up pastries. They looked similiar to this.
