Baida Curry Italiano!

Posted by Hello Well, that's what I decided to call it, for what started out as a simple curry became something more exaggerated and turned into a dish which could more appropriately be categorized into what's fashionably called "Fusion Cuisine".
The idea was to whip up something quick for dinner, and what better than eggs, but then I really wanted to eat something nice and spicy, so I decided to make baida curry. The dish is very simple, except the sundried tomatoes, basil and oregano would be the spices that put the "Italiano" in the name. Apart from the fact that the dish tasted surprisingly good (especially with basmati rice), it also turned out to be quite a looker! So, without any further adieu, I proudly present Baida Curry Italiano!

Been a while (Deja Vu....)

Yes just like what I said a few months ago, it's been a while! Life's been inadvertently crazy, and there hasn't been much I could do to control it, felt good in a way though, to be just swept away in the breeze of whatever is to come. Life's been good the past few months, and I finally graduated in Dec. 2004. Strangely, it didn't feel like a great accomplishment. Nevertheless, I gave myself a pat on the back, I did spend a lot of money for this! The real battle has just begun, I am out in the wild looking for employment. At times I am like a man eater on the prowl, and sometimes I just feel like Homer Simpson....lazy....and waiting for something to fall in my lap!

Anyways, Cristo was in town a couple of weeks back, although I am a "geek" I do incline towards art at times, and this was something I just didn't want to miss (I am told this is how I feel, by my girlfriend!), so we went to Central Park and walked all those miles through endless gates with orange curtains. I must say I haven't seen so many orange pieces of cloth in my whole life! The installation cost was $25 million and when I saw this, all I could think was "Damn, Bal thackeray is missing the campaign of his life!!". Jokes apart, it was a nice day for a walk, and I did manage to get some nice pictures, so I thought about sharing one of them with you. Hope you guys like it! (I really don't know who I am talking to here, coz I am sure as hell no one reads this space anymore:) )
