So simple and just the taste I wanted. I came to your site from a Google search for mattar mushroom, and I was looking for one without cashew paste. This really hit the spot, and it was so simple and quick to prepare! I only had 1/2 of the recommended quantity of mushrooms, but it was still fantastic.

Really nice. As to the recipe, I'm looking forward to giving it a try. At first glance, the long list of ingredients is daunting, but a closer look reveals that most of those ingredients are spices I already have. I'll be sure to report back when I've tried this recipe! Rae I’m still digging that photo. Really nice.

You reap what you sow. Ahem, Rae. Um... You have pointed out a short-coming of mine (over editing my content), and now... um... What's this business with "'loose' their color" and "'loose' my appetite"??? Time to amend? Or to accept the adage above? Let there be peace. Toni P.S. Good thing we named this blog "pesky"!!! P.P.S. Hmm... I could re-rant (in an entire letter to you) about socks, sheets and chopsticks. And I could enlighten you on the übercoolness of feet. Again, peace. :) Karmi apo apni.

The last girlfriend I asked to join me on a trip cited plumbing as a convenience she wasn't willing to go without, but that when I was ready do something that involved hotels, she was game. Oh, and India is most up-to-date in many, many areas. Staying in an location where proper plumbing is lacking and electricity is intermittent is a visitor's choice. Lightness: The every day party.

I think I might consider it more of a bean paste, though, than pea. The name "chick pea" is so misleading! Regarding the cream, that's the only explanation I could come up with, too, so that must be it. I saw when I was buying the cream that the percentage was low, but decided to try it anyway. :( At least I know for next time. Oh, and partying together can be arranged! R. Pille,

Yes, the Donna Hay book is one of the few cookbooks I brought with me (perhaps why I brought the books I did is a topic for another post?). In fact, one of our friends was flipping through it during the party, though I didn't use any recipes from it. I will try something from there for next time. The brioche with chocolate filling looks fab, too! Rae Toni,
