Tribute to fathers ...

We often talk about maa ki haat ka khana … but i know for a fact that when men cook, food can be finger licking good .. So this thread is a tribute to the fathers …

What is your dad’s special dish that he makes with his heart and soul and comes out tasty every single time ? :@:

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

My father never made any dish , he used to make chai in the morning , but my older brother used to make best chicken karahi and goat chops .

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

He used to make this dessert thingy out of rice krispies and brown sugar. Yummm

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

my dad was the master of Sunday morning breakfasts--fried eggs, sunnyside up or overeasy, toast, pan fried potatoes, grilled onions...mm! He can even flip an egg by throwing the pan in the air--ok i know that sounds odd but i mean he just didnt/doesn't turn it without a spatula.

he also "invented" the egg sandwich which was omelette, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo..... I never knew that mayo wasn't part of egg sandwich until a non-desi friend of mine stayed with me a few weeks and she had that sandwich for breakfast...she was shocked that we put mayo :D

of course these things are long gone now, but it was fun while it lasted

Re: Tribute to fathers …

Sara, you guys actually put the mayo in the egg and cooked it? :eek: did it not taste wierd?

My friends dad , makes the best paya’s ever ( paws , as i call them ) … believe you me , he gets requests from his family friends to make that special dish almost one a month :cb:

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

no no, mayo on the bread and then the (cooked) egg!

Re: Tribute to fathers …

oh ok , makes sense now :cb:

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

My dad's a much better cook than my mum, he makes everything!
Erm favourites would be shola and shepherds pie and salmon and bread pudding and a million other things which I'll probably remember afterwards <3

Re: Tribute to fathers …

sounds good Kiterunner :lifey:

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

My dad makes the tastiest Salan, and he can make some mean maduros (fried sweet plantains). =)

Re: Tribute to fathers …

My dad was the breakfast maker like Sara’s dad.

And he also invented our version of the egg sandwich…only we used egg and apricot jelly. :slight_smile:

Toasted bread, egg and apricot jelly.

:yummy:

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

your father cook???... my father still doesnt know where my mom keeps namak mirchain in the kitchen

Re: Tribute to fathers ...

my dad never ever entered the kitchen...it was back then in a village. lifestyle was totally different than what we know of today. he never ever even served food for himself or for us. those were different times i guess :)
