| Sep 07, 2006 3:32 am | | Potluck - A great idea | # |
Kedar Bedekar | | Hi I am Kedar, just moved back from Singapore and live in Khar. This potluck thing seems to be a great idea. Here I confess that I love to cook. For starters, I would love to start this movement and the first venue can be my home. If anyone is interested do let me know and we will fix a date convenient to all.
Since I am absolutely new here on this network, I have no idea whether I will get either NO RESPONSES or there will be a DELUGE.
Can I keep it to say 5 kick ass cooks and their spouses (i have one too) and look forward to a great evening of food and drinks?
I know I am writing this message to people who are yet unknown to me but then all my good friends were unknown to me before I met them!!!
I have no idean of what I could be getting into but if we meet people we have been ordained to meet..then why not.
Brgds
Kedar

Suman Tripathy | | Ok here's how it goes........... ( Lalit hasnt used any vegies in his pasta. It's plain )
Pasta ( Fusilli or even shell one will do ) - 100gms
Tomato - 150 gms ( abt 3 large or 4 )
Vegetables ( beans, carrot, cauliflower ) OR ( spring onions, carrot, mushroom ) OR Non-Veg ( boneless chicken, mushroom ) - 200 gms ( total )- cut into thin strips
Olive oil - 2 tbsp
Cheese Spread - 1 tub ( 200 gms )
Milk - 150 ml
Low Cal Cream - 150 ml
Salt - to taste ( put less as cheese is there )
Dry Thyme - 1 tbsp
Pepper pwd
Chilli flakes
Grated Cheese
Heat Olive Oil in a non stick kadahi / saucepan. Crush the thyme and put. Add ur veg / non veg combo and fry till abt jst done - dont over cook or soften 2 much. Add salt, pepper pwd and chilli flakes ( to taste ) - adjust accordingly. Saute for a mt.
Chop & puree the tomatoes and add to the pan. Cook 4 sumtim, till the rawness goes. Add cream & cheese spread and give a boil. Add the boiled Pasta and mix well. Simmer 4 a short time only. Lastly add the milk and simmer. Remove onto a serving dish and sprinkle some grated cheese on top and some chilli flakes. Serve warm.
Makes a one-dish meal. To complement it, u can serve some soup and toast and mayb add on some cutlets or even veg / chicken lollipops. MAMA MIA ! ! N'JOI ! !

Aa@rt! | | Now, thats what i call fooood..hehehe.. i LOVE Pastas..
Hey Vibhs, you can add Thyme or if u cant find it, try using the spices u get along with Pizzas, they works quite well...if u cant get that either, jus bring along all u have over to my kitchen,cos i got loads of Thyme..;)Private Reply to Aa@rt! |
| Sep 22, 2006 11:42 am | | re: re: re: Cooking Food - - Pasta - Pesto Calabrese | # |
Suman Tripathy | | Yes Vibha,
U can use anyother herb like Oregano - as it is readily available or Rosemary - this also gives a very unusual and nice flavour. If you r not having anything, jst skip it ! And mayb add a generous helping of freshly crushed pepper.
Yes, the amt of cheese is quite substantial. But u get a large serving of the ready dish - abt i kg. It's abt 2 containers of oval shaped alluminium packing box.

Suman Tripathy | | Good show Tejashree..... Yes ! it's heavy with all that cheese & cream ( use low cal cream ) . But it's YUM ! That's why u dont need anything along with it. Mayb jst soup and toast.
Incase, u hav 2 reheat the leftovers later add a little milk 2 it and micro for 2 to 3 mts, depending on the left over quantity. Private Reply to Suman Tripathy |

Aa@rt! | | Recipe for moi pasta??? Well, i kinda cook with no preset recipe in mind, but shall try to recall how i made it
and give you the recipe... Here goes,
Things you need :-
Pasta ( Fusilli is what i have used,but you can use one of your choice ) - 250gms
Tomatoes - 6 Large
Vegetables -i've used only Mushrooms,here again you can add any veggie you like(Carrots,capsicum,cabbage,etc)
Olive oil - 2 tbsp
Salt -to taste
Dry Thyme & Basil - 1 tbsp
Red chillies- 3(can add more if you like it more spicy,but this was pretty HOT)
Grated Cheese -1/2cup
Procedure:-
In a pan, pour about 1/2lt of water and leave the pasta to boil(this should take about 20-30mins)
Heat Olive Oil in a pan,add the tomatoes & Red-chillies, cook them to a point where they turn into pulp and are well cooked,add the mushrooms and cook for another 4mins.
Add salt,basil and thyme and stir it all in together and cook for a minute or 2 .Add the boiled pasta,sprinkle the grated cheese and mix it all well.
