Chinnis Corner: Cricket Bajji Time

-
Its that time of the week when you just want to unwind, spend time with the family, do all those things that you would normally not to do during the course of the week. I for instance would love to shop for veggies, wash them, chop them for further processing and maybe indulge in a few movies. Its around Tea Time in India, when I would love to have that evening snack with my hot cup of tea. So Today the wife decided that it will be Bajji for a snack. I Thought that its been a while since I did a food blog and so this quick one for a Saturday and here is the recipe:

Take Gram Dal, Garam Masala Powder, Red Chilly Powder, and Turmeric Powder in a Vessel. Mix all the ingredients well.



In a separate vessel have chopped vegetables kept aside. You can use a variety of vegetables like Capsicum, Onion, Potato or Brinjal, as per your choice.



Now mix the Gram Dal and other ingredients in water till you get a paste like consistency. Its important to note here not to add too much of water as it can get very liquidy. Add Salt to taste. Now add the vegetables one by one in the Gram Dal Paste.




Now Heat Oil in a Pan and Add the Pasted Vegetables one by one to the heated oil. Allow to fry in Oil till the Bajji turns Crispy. Turn the sides so that they are evenly fried.


Serve Hot, with some nice green chutney or ketchup. Don't worry about the extra calories gained. you can make it up with a nice diet plan from Monday to Friday. Wishing you all a Happy Weekend. :) With the Cricket season on you will enjoy this recipe even more and so the name Cricket Bajji

  Mango Diaries continues to evolve and surprise me with its sweetness and ability to charm its audience. I guess more than anything its the positive intent and inspirational real life stories that causes that bell to ring. Anyways in this edition of Mango Diaries, I seek to focus on how I managed to steer this negative mind of mind to something very positive and cheerful. It goes back to the times of Covid-1st Wave, initially the dark times accompanied by an eerie stone like silence and nothing but the shrill and occasional sound of the passing Ambulance could be heard. It was at the same time I had also lost my beloved father. Barely had i consigned my fathers mortal remains to the flames, within the next few days, I found myself in the ICU ward of a Hospital battling Covid myself. Such tough times, no one was allowed to visit me, surrounded by other patients, it was extremely depressing. It had come to an extent where I even contemplated running away from the hospital but guess I ha

On a daily basis I keep seeing a number of blogs online and have been impressed by a vast majority of them while a few leave that sour feeling . If you search on Google with the keywords " How To Blog" you will come across a huge number of links that will give you access to a plenty of literature on how you could blog and how you can actually make a fortune by blogging.

You would need lots of patience to get to the top. Blogging is not a reach the summit types with your first blog. It i

  As I try to revive my  tryst with blogging, I ponder over what could be the best way to pen a few words. While blogging might be out of vogue, and out of fashion, I realize that my love for words will continue unabated. I commit to writing more, and loving each bit of it, the best way of doing a Sri Ganesh is to write an ode to the City of Joy and my dear departed father, both inseparable parts of me. In fact my late father Shri K. Subramanian was a true Bengali, even his last days his eyes would light up and shine bright at the mention of Kolkata or a Bengal Sweet Delicacy. When he was into his last few days, and it became increasingly difficult for us to make him have his food, my wife Hema asked him if he would like to have Mishti Doi, immediately the hundred watts bulb in the pupil of his eyes lit up and he repeated "Mishti Doi, Mishti Doi". I would want to admit a hard truth here. In the early days of his passing away, I was downcast, depressed, buckets into tears, my
