My husband insists that we try to keep carrots, cabbage, and potatoes in the cupboard. 🙂

if that is reciplay is all about, yes, I had made my own recipes without any written recipes on hand.
I call it dump-all-in -a pot recipe, where I dump in chicken cuts, potatoes, carrots, veggies and sauces.
Makes a yummy stew, really!
I wanted to try Middle Eastern flavors and cooked a soup that didn’t have my common everyday ingredients. My husband and sons enjoyed it so much. I can’t remember how I cooked it! Drives me nuts!! 🙂
Dina replied to the topic Do You "Reciplay"? in the forum Food & Drink 7 years, 9 months ago
Yes, I also do that. I reciplay also. One time, I cooked a dish that has some pickle relish and meat and other ingredients on it and it came out delicious. However, I wasn’t able to take note of how I did it nor remembered all the ingredients I put into it, so I wasn’t able to repeat it anymore.
But I also remembered putting some slices of…[Read more]

To cook without a recipe, adding a little bit of this, a little bit of that, sometimes producing a triumph, sometimes a mess.

Indeed, eggplant is of the nightshade family like potato, that’s why it is bad for those people with arthritis.
I have just lately have known that potato is of the nightshade family.
I love potatoes and eggplant so I am glad I have no arthritis yet. So, I just eat them in moderation so as not to have arthritis.
I like to learn about world cuisines and global flavors. Thank you for teaching me a new word. Baingan. 🙂

Due to certain health issues, we are currently not using this vegetable in our home, but I like it – steamed or fried.
We call it Baingan in Hindi.
Yes, I assure you that it is so yummy. You must try it.
If for example you will have 6 eggplants, you will need at least 4 beaten eggs, so it will be so tasty.
Eggplant with eggs? Don’t think I’ve tried that. Sounds yum! 🙂
I love eggplants. We can cook them into delicious dishes.
One that I love most is the eggplant omelet, wherein I steam the eggplant. When it’s already cooked and soft to the touch, I would cool them. Once cool, I remove their skin, then I flatten the eggplant with a fork. After which I dip it in a beaten egg with some bits of salt. After…[Read more]

My dad used to like eggplant so much. He used to have it cooked in meat dishes. He could even eat them without meat. For me i used to find them very yucky, i didn’t like them. I can stand the taste of cucumber but not the taste of egg plants. They taste soggy to me. I didn’t know however that they lower the blood pressure. Thanks cely for that thought.
