Indian Food on a Snowy Cold Day

We woke up to even more snow this morning. Teddy had problems deciding whether she wanted to go outside or not.


Hmmmm....should I get my pads wet?


Well, maybe I should. I have awfully big pads.


But it looks nasty out there.


I think I will just sit inside and get snow on my head.


This is my favorite winter hat.


Click for a better look. It has little red beads decorating the trees. I wish I could tell you I knitted this myself. I am a horrible knitter. A friend knitted this for me.


This is the current scarf I am making. This is the best I can do.


I was frying bacon for my daughter's boyfriend's breakfast sandwich this morning. Julia Chow was in close proximity.


I LOVE LOVE LOVE Indian food. Yesterday was Indian food cooking day. First I made naan which is a traditional Indian flat bread.


They are rolled out thin and cooked in a tandoor which is an earthenware oven.


I baked mine on my pizza stone in the oven. They are brushed with melted ghee which is clarified butter.



I then made curried potatoes with eggs which is a favorite of my family. I make the curry seasoning by pulsing onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, cumin, coriander and turmeric until it forms a thick sauce.


It smells great.


I diced about 2 pounds of potatoes into small squares.


And thinly sliced about 4 tomatoes.


The potatoes are sauteed until they begin to turn brown.


Then I add the tomatoes.


I hard boiled 10 eggs.


Then peeled and chopped them.


I add a bit of chicken stock and two bay leaves to the tomatoes and potatoes and stir in the curry sauce and let it simmer for 20 minutes.


Then I stir in the hard boiled eggs.


This simmers a bit longer. Tomorrow I will show you the finished meal.
