Street style Chicken Egg Noodles

Street style Egg-Chicken Noodles with scrambled eggs

Extended weekend during quarantine got me feeling like an old bum. To beat the hassle of cooking something from scratch, threw in some leftover marinated boneless chicken chunks, onion chunks, roughly chopped garlic, and sauteed everything over high flame till done. Added 1 finely sliced green pepper, 1/2 cup button mushrooms sliced, all-dente noodles, 2 tbsp of tomato-chilli-sweet chilli sauce, 4 chopped green chillies (i like the heat), 1 tsp of soy sauce, fried some more and served with lime wedges n scrambled eggs on top.

Gone within 60 seconds' happened in front of me. Quarantine got everyone in my home feeling hungry 24*7

Packing Suitcases...

"I have barely traveled outside my own state."..Now that's a statement.Really.I have been staying in my own state West Bengal for the last 29 years of my life.And I have barely traveled outside of it.No,I'm not attached to my city so much,if that's what you are thinking.Its exactly the opposite.I'm a bohemian.I don't have sentimental attachments to places.I never did.My late father used to work in the Government sector and that meant a lot of transfers.I have been to the remotest of villages in West Bengal(Perks of being an honest policeman) with my family ever since I was a kid.I don't remember those days as I was just a toddler but from what my mother has told me,we have often lived in places with no electricity to times when my mother had to keep ducks and hens in the house and sell their eggs in the market to make ends meet(like I said perks of being an honest policeman).But as far as I can remember I was never really very sad to move places.Rathe...

Singapore Diaries 1-The shakti of MDH Masalas and Ma ka pyaar.

On my first International Flight to Singapore through Silk Air I was as excited and petrified as a kid is on the first day of school.The morning of 20th October'15 and the days before that I was an emotional mess to be honest.It was the first time I was leaving my family and going to an unknown country.Now one may say that its the same if I had left Kolkata and gone elsewhere,any other city in India,I would have felt equally alone.But I beg to differ.See the thing is that any other city in India might have been unknown but it would have been the same Country.The people may look different like for example if you shifted to Kashmir or Jammu you might have suffered from a bit of fair-and-lovely complex as people there are all the colour of plaster of paris with a tinge of pink on their cheeks.Similarly if you would have travelled to the south,people may look at you if you are even remotely as fair as me because there the fair-and-lovely complex is in reverse.The dresses may have va...

Paella ki Kahani : Soft, white, buttery basmati rice cooked with sausages and eggs

So it was basically one of those mundane mornings where having nothing to do on a Sunday (yeah I know what you guys are thinking!! But when you shift countries as drastically as you change Tata Sky channels, not having friends seems normal) and my hubby coming to no rescue of mine because he was transfixed on Channel News Asia, my empty mind diverted itself to the food devil inside my head. I started thinking about what to cook for lunch for office tomorrow as my very coy, virgin stomach rejects all food made outside except fine dining (I know…I know…Food Bourgeois) and the quantity of food is very meager considering the amount of money we pay to have it. Pressurizing my cerebellum to come up with recipes I suddenly remembered Padma Laxmi….. Wait! Before jumping into conclusions let me make it clear that, (i) No I’m not bordering on being Bi-sexual (ii) ...
