Chapati (Indian Flatbread Roti)
Chapati is a North Indian bread that is eaten at home almost everyday. My father learned how to make it from his mother and he’s passed the recipe on to me. Some chapati recipes call for salt, oil or butter in the dough, but in our family we only use whole wheat flour and water. The whole wheat flour used is called atta, which is a bit more course than the whole wheat flour you find in regular grocery stores. Some recommended brands are Laksmi, Sujata, and Nature’s Best. When buying atta, make sure to find one that does not include maida or all-purpose flour, because that’s not the real thing.

My First RecipeRelay
Recently, I was invited by my new friends at RecipeRelay to be a guest on their site (which I love!) The concept behind RecipeRelay is that each contributor shares a recipe that uses at least one technique or ingredient from the previous recipe posted – hence the term:) You get to do two posts on the site – the 1st one is about your process and then the 2nd one is the actual recipe you come up with. The site is also focused on using local and organic ingredients which is always a good thing:) And contributors come from all over the world which makes it interesting.
New Cooking Video: Kosambri (Carrot Salad)
Alana, Paul, and I just made a new cooking video for kosambri, a South Indian carrot salad. You make it with coconut, soaked lentils, lemon, cilantro and then top it off with fried mustard seeds, curry leaf and dried red chili – so fresh! It’s a really colorful dish with so much texture and a good one to bring to picnics.You can find the written out recipe on this post. Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions. stopping naltrexone

Potato Curry Tacos with Mole Chutney
It was really fun to prepare foods for the Brooklyn Magazine launch party. For this event, I collaborated with my friend Ben to make up a whole new Indian taco. We decided on potato curry topped with mole chutney and homemade yogurt crema in a corn tortilla. I will share my recipe for potato curry and Ben’s notes on making mole chutney with you below. I posted how to make yogurt in a previous post. I just added a little sour cream to my yogurt to put on these tacos.

ABCDs at Brooklyn Magazine Launch Party
The L Magazine is launching Brooklyn Magazine, a new quarterly print magazine all about Brooklyn and its people and ABCD’s was asked to provide some foods for the launch party tomorrow! I will be posting the recipes after the event. I’m collaborating with my friend Ben for a new Mexican taco – corn tortilla filled with potato curry (basically the potato filling in a masala dosa), topped with mole chutney and homemade yogurt crema. relaxinfo So excited because I had a blast at the last L Magazine event.
