^ yumm!
Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
here is the recipe i followed.
Dal Makhani. This is enough for 6 ppl as a main dish
Ingredients
- 225g (8 oz) whole black lentils (urad dal)
- 1.25l (2¼ pints) water
- 40g (1½ oz) fresh root ginger, finely chopped
- 30ml (2 tbsp) ghee
- 12 garlic cloves, pureed
- 200g (7 oz) brown onion paste
- 10ml (2 tsp) paprika
- 5ml (1 tsp) coriander seeds, roasted and ground
- 5ml (1 tsp) cumin seeds, roasted and ground
- 2.5ml (½ tsp) chili powder
- 5ml (1 tsp) tomato puree
- 200g (7 oz) tinned tomatoes, pureed
- 45ml (3 tbsp) garam masala
- 150ml (5 fl oz) single cream
- 150g (5 fl oz) unsalted butter
- 10ml (2 tsp) rock salt
Instructions
- Soak the lentils in plenty of water for at least 12 hours. Drain and rinse well.
- Bring the water to the boil , add the lentils and half the ginger.
- Boil for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to very low and simmer for a further 1 hour or so, stirring from time to time.By this time, the lentils should have absorbed all the water and be soft not al dente.
- Heat the ghee . Add the masala and stir-fry for 1 minute or so. Add the garlic, onion paste and the remaining ginger and stir-fry for a further 2 minutes. Mix in the lentils.
- Add the tomato puree, tinned tomatoes and garam masala to the lentils. Cook for a further 15 minutes, adding a cupcful or two of water as needed so as to retain a pouring consistency.
- Put the casserole in a preheated oven, 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4, and cook for at least 3 hours. Check the consistency of the mixture every 40 minutes or so – adding water to maintain the pouring consistency. ( I did it on the stove itself)
- On your fourth check, add the cream, butter and salt and give it a final 20 or so minutes cooking in the oven with the oven switched off.
I added half a can rajma (kidney beans) as well, tinned ones.

Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
khatichick I love those chicken kebab skewers , damn!
Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
today earlier , had chicken meat balls with teriaki sauce (yakitori sticks)
and then I made this special pizza with “chicken tikka” and tikka masala with lots of oregano on top. I kept the bread really soft, dont like too crunchy when it has tikka on top.
It tasted really really good.
