Poori,puri:D

PURI

Poori Ingredients

You will need:

• 1/3 c. white flour
• 1/3 c. whole wheat flour
• 1/4 c. water
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
• oil for frying

Make the Poori Dough

Put the whole wheat flour in a large mixing bowl or platter. Add white flour to it and salt and mix together. Now add a little water at a time and mix the flour to form dough. Knead it all together until you get a proximity of soft dough.

Then add 2 tbsp. of oil. When you do, the dough starts coming together very well until you get a nice consistency.

Shape the Poori

Oil your working surface. Then take the dough out of the bowl and knead it for another 5 minutes. Pinch about a quarter of your dough and shape it into a ball. Roll each ball into a 3 inch round. Repeat the same with the rest of your dough. Each poori is made right before frying.

Fry the Poori

Fill your wok/deep fry pan with oil and heat it on high. Deep fry the pooris one at a time, pressing very gently on each side with a slotted spoon. Keep pressing it under the oil until the poori puffs up.

Then, turn over and fry the same way on the other side. Place it on a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess oil. Pooris are made right before they're eaten.

How to Prepare a Bento Box

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• a bento box
• fried or white rice
• fish, beef, pork, or chicken
• pickled or cooked vegetables
• seaweed (optional)
• chopsticks or fork/knife
• napkins
• kitchen utensils
• a love for cooking and culinary design

Step1

The first step towards making a bento is to gather all materials necessary for putting together your boxed lunch. Cook all meat, vegetables, rice, and other food items you wish to have in your bento before proceeding to the next step! (This isn't a guide on how to COOK your food, it's how to arrange it in a bento, after all!)

Step2

Traditional Japanese bentos have a 4:3:2:1 ratio of four ingredients: 4 parts rice, 3 parts meat, 2 parts vegetables, and 1 part dessert. Always keep this in mind when preparing your bento.

Some bento can be elaborately designed with cut-out shapes of meat and vegetables decorating the inside, while others are simple, aesthetically pleasing arrangements. It's not necessary for a bento to be made this way, but many find them much more enjoyable when arranged in shapes of flowers, dolls, animals, and so on. Kids especially love bentos made in this way!

Step3

The main course of your bento will be the rice. When preparing your rice, keep in mind how you want to arrange it in your bento. Do you wish to have rice balls? Will you shape the rice into an animal or other decoration? Or will you just leave a mound of rice?

Seaweed makes for an excellent compliment to the rice. Riceballs can be wrapped with it and eaten alone or with soy souce.Rice can be shaped into animals and detailed with seaweed, as well. My personal favorite is to make a panda bear!

A word of caution: Always be sure to let your rice cool before placing the lid on your bento. The steam will cause moisture that will turn your bento's food soggy if you don't!

Step4

Meat is your first side-dish, and can be arranged in any number of ways. One popular choice is to cut weiners to look like octopus or squid. Fried fish or shrimp can also be arranged into shapes along with the rice. If eating sushi or eggs, be sure to keep the bento in a cool place so as to avoid spoiling. You can also use more wasabi than normal for the sushi. Also, keep sauces packed separately to avoid turning the food to mush before lunchtime hits.

Step5

Vegetables can be cut with a steady hand and knife or a cookie cutter to look like trees, animals, or a number of shapes and sizes. I find it most appealing to choose shapes based on the season. Orange carrot rabbits with broccoli or green bean grass in spring...the possibilities are endless. Use your imagination and choose something you enjoy!

Step6

Lastly, the treats! It can be anything from a simple plastic wrapped candy, or a small portion of cake. Some traditional bentos even opt for pickled vegetables or fruit. I like strawberries, or coconut candies. Choose whatever you like best for dessert.

Step7

In a nutshell, just make a bento that you're proud of, and that is healthy to eat. Take it to work, school, or simply eat it at home. Never think an idea is too elaborate. Always try new designs and arrangements. The possibilities have no limits. Have fun when making your bento, and enjoy it!

Roti Chanai

Roti Chanai

This is a dish that if made right you will never want to stop eating it!

Recipe Was hunted by Sholva and brought to you by http://sarahmeyerwalsh.wordpress.com/

3 cups plain flour
Pinch of salt
Pinch of sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup water
1/5 cup extra water

Combine dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl.

Add the liquids (milk and initial portion of water) gradually to flour, working mixture with your hands. Knead until the dough is smooth and elastic - kind of like play-dough. You will probably have to add some of the extra water while you are kneading to get the dough to the play-dough like consistency. Flours differ so you won’t know exactly how much water you need until you start kneading and can feel the dough.

Form the dough into a roll then pinch the the roll into six pieces.

Oil your hands with peanut oil then form each piece of dough into a ball, ensuring the surface is lightly oiled all around. Put the oiled balls back in the bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap then place in a warm place and leave for 5 hours.

After dough has rested, oil your counter top or a marble slab. Oil your hands again. Place a dough ball on the surface and flatten as much as possible (should be roughly dinner plate sized).

Add a little oil and oil a rolling pin. Roll out pastry until very thin (1/8″). It might break but that is ok.
When thin enough fold the sides in to form a rectangle. Fry each side on in a well buttered pan until pastry puffs up and becomes golden - about 1-2 minutes. Repeat with other dough balls. Serve while warm.
