yesterday:
channa poori, halwa and shami kebab for breakfast! channa is spicy chickpea masala, poori is deep fried unleavened flat bread, halwa is a dessert made with semolina, milk and sugar and shami kebabs r beef, lentils and spices, all ground together, fashioned into round kebabs and fried. yum!!!
traditional turkey and fixings for lunch. for dinner: shrimp palao (same idea as chicken biryani but with shrimp and abundant, fragrant amounts of ground cilantro and hot peppers), seekh kebab (spicier version of donor kebabs) and jalapeno peppers stuffed with spiced up, sweet and sour tamarind paste. needed some yogourt with all that spicy food!
today:
paratha, omelette and aloo methi (potato curry with fenugreek) for breakfast.
went for a walk in the neighborhood. nc is still gold and rust. it rained earlier in the morning. everything smells of pine needles. the air is clean and crsip. makes me want to travel all over america and take pictures.
