Elaborate Dinners

This might not really be a blog topic..but who cares.
These days we are having quite elaborate dinner menus. Its as if the 2 years during MS were not enough to explore all cooking skills. We roomies take turns alternately.

The process starts with switching on the 37 inch television with either Everybody Loves Raymond or Friends in the background.
1) Then we wash utensils. (5 min)
2) Cutting the onion and chopping tomatoes and chilly (3 min)
3) Heating oil and tadka (2 min)
4) Mixing up the vegetables and garnish + cooking, etc (20 min)
5) Rice cooks simultaneously (see we use parallel processing concepts here too)
6) Yummy, foods ready..well not yet
7) Heating the tava and baking rotis (8 min)
8) Hmm..lemon on the side, lemonade in the glass
9) and sit back, relax and enjoy the dinner.....(30 min...ya i am slow everyone knows that by now)
10) Whats in today for dessert?..cake, ice-cream, cookies (10 min)
11) End it with Masala supari and sauf...wow eat like a king!

Total time spent: almost 2 hrs..who really cares when i have all the time in the life after office...after all "paapi pet ka sawal hai"

watching myself grow in size day by day!
