Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
Lusi i tried halwa with yoru recipe and it turned out yummy. Perfect thing to serve with puris. I added 1.5 c sugar and it was still a bit too sweet so next time i think i will go a bit lesser. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
Ira, when I was making it, initially I had 1.5 cups but when I tasted it while cooking, I felt meetha wasn’t enough so I added little more sugar… lol… though when it was done my mom tasted it, she also said I was sweet “sweet”…lol…
Torquisepari, she is talking about the one I posted on the last page or something…
Ok, yesterday I made spring/vegetable rolls…

Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
Mano i know you asked Lusi, but i recently made spring rolls stuffed with boiled and mashed aloo with just salt and red chilli. They were so yummy. The idea came to me after we had them in Pakistan and i was in spicy heaven. Just make sure you use good quality potatoes. Also, to emphasize i used spring roll sheets not egg roll ones, not sure how those would turn out.

Ira, do you have to soak or steam spring roll sheets first or what. I have seen them at oriental grocery stores, they keep them outside and they are hard like pasta... so i never tried them as I wasn't quite sure how to use them...
Mano, my filling was very simple, I stir frired some very finely sliced carrots and corn. Season them with soy sauce, salt and pepper. Then add it to finely chopped cabbage and finely sliced celery. Add salt and pepper to taste and little chat masala for flavoring. Thats it...

Lusi i get the sheets in the frozen section of oriental stores. I have seen teh dry ones too and always wondered what they taste like but the ones i am talking about are teh kind you get your rolls wrapped in when you go to a resturant. My Ammi also uses these to make keema samosas.
