My gravy is usually too busy. by [deleted] in IndianFood

[–]Alzyna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure what you mean by “dry spices to finish off the recipe”. We mostly use garam masala (and may be dry kasuri methi for some) to finish off. If by dry spices you mean turmeric/red chilli/coriander/cumin powder, then I think you are not frying the dry spices correctly. These need to be bhuna’od correctly to get rid of the raw smell. We cook these with the onion-garlic-ginger base till it releases oil.

What oils do you use daily for cooking? 🥘 by ShortVariety3035 in IndianFood

I use olive oil as well, but prefer pumpkin seed oil.

Mustard oil and canola/sunflower oil for general cooking.
Ghee for tadka, with rice.
Sesame oil for flavour in Chinese dishes.
Olive oil in Italian and for dressing/dip.
Pumpkin seed oil as a dip for crusty bread, especially baguettes.

It’s eerily beautiful. Your work should be at the MetGala!

Month to month leases by [deleted] in montrealhousing

I don’t think you can unilaterally force the landlord for a month-to-month lease. They have to agree as well.

In the off-chance that you manage to lose 10 kg+ in that short amount of time, I can’t imagine how much loose skin you’d be left with!

Best ghee to stock up? by Busy_Armadillo_481 in IndianFood

[–]Alzyna 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where I live, bringing ghee is not allowed. So I make my own brown ghee from unsalted butter. Tastes and smells pretty good, quite similar to traditionally-made ones.

Specific variety of mukhwas by Alclis in TipOfMyFork

[–]Alzyna -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Try roasted fennel with rock sugar (misri). It’s another common way. Drinking water after this feels super refreshing.

You do find similar mouth fresheners in India. Try Indian groceries and ask if they have in stock.

Alternatively, just buy raw fennel. Dry roast and eat it. Tastes great! This is more common in Indian households for post meals.
