Finally, after a long break , I have arrived here shamelessly but my blog being so sensitive to store my special moments has waited for a little longer than expected for a post. :-)
Yes, today is a special day for me where I always considered myself to be an alien to kitchen , but for last one week, my roommates were experimenting their culinary skills and to be true , I was inspired by them too . Then what, when Mission Kitchen was planned with lot of strategy and resources in place prior entering the battlefield known as " KITCHEN" , infact , its wrong on my part to compare it with battlefield , rather it's a laboratory with all species of edible plants [ To be noted : I am a pure veggie ] . Ofcourse , I had tried maggie many times and loved it preparing but a proper staple course was never tried !
Let me come to my experiment which was planned, conducted and tested too .
I bought all items required to cook dal and rice , cut the vegetables, rice was being cooked simultaneously,and dal was well simmered , later cooked with an accuracy which many can hardly dream of ( I guess, I am boasting myself a lot, ofcourse yes, it was my first date with cooking today ), so what as always , the product generated after an experiment is tested with someone ( Trivia for you : Scientists usually use guinea pigs (white rats ) / monkeys as the specimen on which they test their experiments and draw inferences to prove that even that stuff works on 'WE' poor humans ! ) Since I am not a scientist and I dont ever dare to insult the poor specimens, I planned to test and guess what , I had my faithful hungry roommates who had no other choice too ;-)
At last, the food was served by all for all , and you would have never imagined or even expected that the DAL was damn tasty and perfect blended with superb white rice ( also cooked by me ), our hunger and taste buds were satiated to the max. So , now you may be expecting that I may get a garland for my success in experiment,sorry - this was just a start ! Ofcourse, they showered thanks and appreciated my effort for ending their wait and happily filling their stomach.
Wow ! I never knew experiments in kitchen are so much more fun than those in Chemistry lab in school where I always used to struggle and copy inferences in my lab book or manipulate them to get the end-result upto Chemistry lab exam in my IInd sem. engg !
LESSONS learnt : 1. Kitchen is not a battlefield, instead a lab ( far better and interesting than Chemistry lab !)
2. I have a good future in cooking !
Now getting philosophical :
* ** In life , we may come across many labs where we are tested , but its upto us how we turn those labs as test-ground for our experiments ! ***
P.S - Please comment on this and let me know how my experiment was - ;)
