@Starlight
Iâd say you are winning right now.
Your boyfriend/husband or kids would love you for sure.
Now a little messing around:
Some ladies didnât even bother getting meat
Haha!
Hahah! Not a competition. Just a love for delicious food
No complains from anyone so far.
Whoa!! This looks Ahhmaaayyzing
These are called Modaks, Lord Ganapati favourite and mine ofcourse, usually made during Ganesha chavithi festival.
I always used to wait for them every year, but last year I only tried myself and distributed to neighbours. Btw recipe wise , these are coconut dry fruit sweet mix inside that oil fried wheat wrapping.
That reminds me of jilledu kayalu that are also served on Vinayaka chavithi (aka Ganesh Chaturthi). Not sure if thatâs a regional difference.
Rice flour with stuffing made of sesame seeds and jaggery on the inside.
(Not a result of my culinary prowess btw just a disclaimer)
Yeahhh, These are all similar ones offered on Ganesh or Vinayaka Chavithi festival. I heard them as Undrallu ( I know they are called by different names and different recipes) âŠthe one u showed are steam cooked with rice wrapping , but we prefer Oil bathed ones
The steam ones are more sattvic compared to mine Rajasic type
That explains a lot. I suppose itâs a Brahmin specific dish
A beautiful symbolism exists here for the reason why we offer Modak to Ganapathi âŠ
Lord Ganapathi is also called as Modaka priya ( Modak meaning ananda, bliss and priya means likingâŠ) So he is an and in eternal bliss always ,
Sat-chit-ananda ;
That is also the reason Modaks are being offered to fire in the Ganapathi homas at the end, so that the end result expected is always âanandaâ spread to everyone after the homa.
Irrespective of symbolism, every year saying Lord Ganapathi name we eat Modaks on that festival.
Vacation mode?
Nah, just another beautiful morning ;)
Heart Coherence really makes it all so much better.
Alternative name : Everyday vacation field?
Havenât quite followed up on this yetâŠ
So this peculiar habit of taking photos of the dishes came from my time in china⊠People would wait in a restaurant until food is served and then tell everyone not to touch any plate until sufficient photos were taken pretty weird, anywaysâŠ
@anon46520955 Iâm a big fan of dumplings, whatâs your filling in yours? (3rd row on the left). I would also like to know whatâs in the center of the 5th row? And whatâs that on the last picture on the right?
@xbravo how did you make those meatballs?
@MonkeyOwl i didnât know this word semolina but i just checked and thatâs exactly it. (GrieĂklöschen) i basically just threw in the sausage on top lol, so donât think itâs common.
@Bali indeed very wise! In Germany they love potatoes and there are all kinds of recipes. I once did the low-no-carb diet for a week and stopped afterwards haha
@anon37166570 whatâs that? Spinach? Are you like Popeye the sailor man?
@Starlight i can taste the chicken and others through the photos i swear
@anon61582445 lots of meat is good for everyone rightâŠ
@KingMerc (canât find the cigar emoji)
Portobello mushroom + garlic + turmeric
Oh i loved those
Tacos (grilled mushrooms + red onion + guacamole + jalapeño + spinach)
Yes thatâs my alter ego.
Spinach makes me strong. And robust.
Also energized.
Hahahaha
