Melt-in-your-Mouth Indian Eggplant

Filed under: Quick cook, Side Dishes, Vegetarian — Tags: , , , , — peoplewhoeat @ 7:19 pm

eggplants, sliced thin, salted and dried on a paper towel to remove bitterness

For frying:

8 whole fenugreek seeds
1/2 tsp whole fennel seeds
1/4 tsp whole cumin seeds
1/2 tsp kalonji

To garnish:
salt
tabasco sauce
lemon juice
sour cream

Take the prepared eggplants, and fry them in the spiced oil until golden and crisp.  Garnish with salt, lemon juice and a dash of tabasco sauce, and serve with sour cream.

Delicious!  You won’t be able to find an eggplant big enough to make as many as you’d want to eat.

Pic-A-Nic

Filed under: Side Dishes — Tags: , , , , , , — peoplewhoeat @ 3:10 am

Summer is the perfect time for picnics, and it simply wouldn’t be the Fourth of July without some picnic food recipes. 

The New York Times just showcased a slew of awesome picnic recipes.  Here’s the article:

Here are two of my favorite picnic recipes:

German Potato Salad
Boiled New Potatoes
Vinagrette:
1 part white wine vinegar
2 parts mustard (I like Dijon)
3 parts oil
chopped dill pickle
Optional:
crumbled bacon and bacon grease

This recipe is great because you don’t have to worry about refrigeration like you do with most potato salads.

Cucumber Salad:
One thinly sliced cucumber
3 TBSP white wine vinegar
1 TSP salt
1 TBSP dill

Have a good holiday weekend!
