- News Item That touched Me ....There was one article in this month's Reader's Digest about Kamalbhai Parmar who is running a fabricating unit and who runsa school,rather a tution school for the poor students in Ahmedabad.It takes a large heart to start something like this.I do wish I can do something like that too.Atleast be able to teach in such effort .
- Books That I am reading now.....I am reading "Under Orders" by Dick Francis.Just started.Seems to be about issues in racing sport.
- News Items That Touched Me Today----The bicyc;e scores over train and car in a survey conducted for two wheeler travel ina congested metro like New York as the fastest transport..
- Movies That I Liked.....I watched a Malayalam Movie called'Vastu Hara' in Kairali T.V.yesterday.The story touches about losers who migrate abandoning their personal properties during divison of countries and realtes to the creation of East Pakistan called East Bengal dividing Bengalis .Also running underneath the main issue is the personal loss of property which gets rejected by the Mother in the story who is offered the same back by her Husband's relatives.
- Books That Are My Favorites----Somerset Maughm's short stories,Arthur Conan Doyle's 'sherlock Holm mysteries',All of Shakespearian dramas,The Bronte sister's writings,Poems by Mathew Arnold and Tagore's 'gitanjali'.This list is not exahaustive.
Of salads and Soups.
I thought for a change i will give a heading that will inspire me today about how I make my soup.Since I am a vegetarian,I am giving you one vegetarian soup recipe.
Take the following vegetables and cut them in whatever sizes you want as it does not matter as I am going to pressure cook them.
1)1 tomato.2)one half piece of capsicum3)some 4 beans.4)one medium sized onion.5)green pieces one half hands full.6)one potato.7)one half green chillies.
Now cut all these into pieces and wash and put inside a pressure cooker pouring some water.The potato skin can be removed.The skin of tomato can remain.Add salt and some turmeric powder and pressure cook.after the cooker is settled and the ingredients are all cooled use the mixie and run it till all the vegetables are ground to a smooth paste.
Now in case you have some bread pieces you might dry fry or if you do not mind the calories you might fry the pieces with clarified butter( Ghee).Take some green coriander leaves and fine cut them.You can now keep the ground soup in the cooker and heat it.When lightly hot add half a tea spoon of gharam masala powder and drop a little butter and serve hot and eat it and enjoy.
Jayamala.
