Anda penne!



Today has been one of those rare days when I've wanted to eat... and not cook.

16.oo hrs
The dosas I had for brunch were getting assimilated into my bloodstream. The nectarine was nearly processed.

17.3o hrs
I'd have to have an early dinner. I was already famished.

18.00 hrs
Two cookies and laziness. I don't wanna cook...

18.3o hrs
Sudden burst of enthusiasm. I will make penne in red sauce with whole peppercorn and chicken... lipsmaking!

18.35 hrs
The chicken was rock frozen. I'd take an hour to thaw and I didn't have one second... (I was dreading my loss of enthusiasm, considering it eluded me all day).

18.4o hrs
Two eggs were boiling alongside the pasta, while I stirred the sauce at the same time.

18.45 hrs
How will penne in red sauce taste with boiled eggs? Should I just nibble the eggs separately, with chaat masala? The yolks would thicken the sauce even more...

19.oo hrs
My anda pasta is ready. I managed a photo before having it straight from the pan!

All for love... of food

I'm a true blue foodie.

Sounds cliched, doesn't it? I will because food's something, I don't think, anyone can hate.

People may not like rice or meat or lemon grass or star anise or bottle gourd. But I'm sure there won't be a single person on earth who'd say she/he hates food. And if there are some who do, they are welcome to post copious comments on my blog.

All this apart, I want to celebrate culinary adventures and misadventures on this blog.

That's because food's one thing with which I can create magic!
