Comfort food

We all have something that reminds us of our childhood/youth and makes us feel better.

Name something that you love to eat that just seems to melt away any problems.

For me it has to be:-

Masoor Daal
Samoseh with coriander raita
Chocolate coated peanuts :smiley:
Cheese on toast

Re: Comfort food

Chocolate spread on toast :hayaa:

Re: Comfort food

Freshly fried potato chips (fries to u americano's.)

Fish pie, chunks of white fish, broccolli, carrots, sweetcorn, in a creamy cheese sauce, topped with mashed potato.

Re: Comfort food

mashed potato, haleem, daal chawal, bhindi, thinly sliced and fried potatoes with chaat masala but nothing more comforting than the pakora curry (my mom makes the world's best one).

what happened to cheese and crackers man? you're a disgrace!

Freshly baked soft chocolate chip cookies

NUTELLLA!!!!!!!!!!!!

cashew nuts............I'm addicted to them.

Sandwiches (grilled cheese......chicken salad)....with a cup of tomato soup

Chocolate milk, lemonade, pina colada

TWIX.....my favorite candy bar. Oooo......Ferero Rocher as well.

Ice cream: mint chocolate chip, Haagen Dazs's Belgian Chocolate, Maggie Moo's Red Velvet.

Short chunky pasta such as ziti or ravioli. There's something about the soft and squishy texture of pasta and the combination of cheese and tomato sauce that are sooooo comfortin.

Gol Guppay

Occasionally for breakfast.....halwa poori and chanay (which is a heavy meal) is comforting.

My dad's chicken corn soup and nihari

My mom's chicken karahi and chicken shashlik....and chapli kababs.

Daal with imli ki chutni

Chinese food: its so fun to eat the left overs in the middle of the night.

Mmmm.....shawarma.

Re: Comfort food

Masoor Makhni is absolutely yum but not my comfort food lol.

For me comfort food is Haagen Dazs brownie sundae, Dark Lindt with Cherry and Almonds, Hardees Steak and Cheese burger and vanilla milk shake,** Charlie's** steak and cheese delux sub, Chilli's Molten Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Ice cream, TGIF's **3 cheese pasta, **Pizza Hut's cheese lovers pizza, NY Fries cheese fries, Sugar Daddy's Redvelvet cupcakes,** Shakespeare and Co's** pastries, Starbucks **Caramel Frappacino, and umm **Applebees mashed potatoes and chilli.

In desi my comfort food is Nargisi koftey with chawal, meat biryani, chicken tikka with puri, pathorey with channey and halwa puri channey.

OK that was a huge list lol.
