There is something about the charms of comfort food, especially when it rains. Our perspicacity to enjoy the greasy goodness increases on these wet days when at other times we would ban them from our diets and dining tables.
Here's a Monsoon Brunch with Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue!
With one recipe invented and the other given a twist!!
This time I invented the Golgappa salad. Chopped dices of cucumber, tomato and onion mixed with a few pomegranate arils, spiced with salt, pepper and red chilli powder and specially seasoned with a hint of freshly made saunth were stuffed into atta and sooji golgappas and placed on top of cucumber rings. Served with tomato flowers they made for a pretty picture and tasted wonderful too.
Then I decided to give a twist to the classic Mint-coriander Paneer tikka. I skewed it with Aloo fry to give a different spin to it and served it with fresh coriander and kachche aam ki chutney.
The main course was Punjabi chole, Bhature and homemade Dahi vada.
The meal was rounded off with the seasonal offering of Mango Ice cream served on a bed of mangoes with Mango wafers as edible scoops.
