the most perfect cooking appliance ever created |
This instrument has a "half-moon grater" attached in the front. You place half a coconut, on the grater and use a rolling forward motion. It Works Perfectly, creating grated coconut so moist and supple......but formed into individual pieces (unlike our Cuisinarts which can make things MUSH).
Plus it is efficient as it is quick, easy and completely removes all coconut meat from the shell!
We are making Bhindi masala..... that would be the best OKRA (no slime) |
Charles making a fish curry |
Riyaz trying his hand at pineapple/coconut curry |
Riyaz and Ellen +pineapple (you should see the technique used to dice the pineapple........... finger shredding technique! |
Gina..... yes, most of my fellow intrepid travelers were YOUNG (I only became Mom to help them when they were sick..... each night Charles would invite Party Phyllis out for drinks!) |
sorry the deliciousness is not better captured............. it was one of the best MEALS ever! |
Grown up in the hills, I finally got to see cardamom growing.
his farm is amazing....... he even grows Huge Tufts of Black Hair from his EARS!!!!!! |
these are the famous alleppy black pepper; a vine often grown with tea......up the silver oaks. White pepper is the same fruit......... with outside removed |
this is CARDAMOM -yummy and fruity when green |
We even made Paratha in the cooking class. Charles was kind enough to make a video of this for me (with my camera) because it is so damn technically challenging.......... like pizza dough., (throwing it up in the air+ stretching.......but more difficult.....but I need Dee to show me how to place the video on the blog
Happy Eating!
