Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 I been making lettuce wraps. I make the fake eggsalad from the files and use that. I sure am happy I have the crockpot my sister gave me. I cook something in there while I'm at work, I check on it during my lunch hour.

Cold soups like Cold Curried Apple and Buttermilk (recipe follows) or a multi layer dip with corn chips. (refried beans, guacamole, cheese or fake cheese, salsa, other stuffies, or hummus and pita bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Yes, I love my new crockpot. And when you run it on low for several hours it doesn't warm the room appreciably. To walk in the house and smell yummy food is... well, it's something I haven't experienced since my divorce years ago. :-) Tonight I'm being taken to dinner at an Indian restaurant for my birthday. Yeah!!!! My favorite cuisine is Indian. In fact, my youngest would sell her soul for vegetable samosa, so I guess I should find an easy recipe for that! Maybe one that uses wonton wrappers. :-) Sharon paulvatoloco wrote: > ... > I sure am happy I have the crockpot my sister gave me.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Happy birthday!!! Found this link for using won ton wrappers and baking. I think I'll try this when it isn't so hot hot hot. http://onehotstove.blogspot.com/2005/02/experiment-baked-wonton-samosas.html Get on board. You're invited to try the new Mail Beta.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Thanks for that! About 20 years ago I worked with a guy from India and he taught me how to make samosas that way. (So I considered it a fairly authentic shortcut.) Of course the info is long lost and I have lost contact with him. I'll look at this! Sharon treazure noname wrote: > Happy birthday!!!

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Sharon Samosas are usually made from chappati dough. I posted a chappati recipe awhile ago. They only call for water and flour.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Yes, but sometimes the fewer the ingredients, the greater the technique. ;-) Thanks, though, and I will look it up.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Sharon The hard part for me is getting round circles. they don't have to be round but they look better. After making the circles, make a masala or subzee or whatever you want and put a little in the center and pinch the edges together and fry.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 They make donut cutters in assorted sizes and the center hole is removable. Maybe that would work??

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Sat Nam everybody, The past few days have been inundated (doesn't look right?) with your wonderful emails about this and that...recipes,etc. Jack's email inspired me to join this group. After reading it I said , " I want to do that........ " Maybe he can email me the logistics on how to do it.I have taught vegetarian cooking before. In '79 became a vegetarian, and am working on being a vegan, but still doing some dairy, mostly for hubby and son. This is also a response to how to keep cool with all that 'heat' down there............ One thing that is really cooling is a young Thai coconut , if you can get it. They are kind of weird shape, and tannish colored. They do not look anything like the 'other ' coconuts. They are soft . You can cut the top off and put a straw in it and 'drink' it. It was my absolute favorite food in Thailand. You can get them in the states too, even Alaska , maybe not Georgia though?? It is full of minerals and perfect for when you are overheated, as it is 'cooling.' For all the dairy fans , yogurt is also cooling. Maybe as time permits a recipe with yogurt will go to ya'll......... Keep cool, maybe everybody should stop driving one whole day to give the air a breather, it's all global warming, everybody knows that , right??

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Chappatis and samosa shells are roughly 8 " in diameter so they need to be rolled out.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I see your point!!! I did not know they were that large. Can you cut around a pie plate to give you that size?

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Hariatma, I try to not drive my car at least 2 days a week and often more than twice. Also being careful using AC as I am reading of the power outages across our country. Even shutting down some airports. We all survived jillions of years without cars and air conditioning so hopefully we can do our small part in the Global Warming crisis.- Sending smiles and hugs your way Deanna-- In , Hariatma Khalsa <hariatmayoga wrote: > Keep cool, maybe everybody should stop driving one whole day to give the air a breather, it's all global warming, everybody knows that , right?? > Hariatma > > > > " Intellectuals solve problems; geniuses prevent them.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I think it is just practice. You have to keep rotating the dough around when rolling. I don't really like chappatis or samosas so rarely make them. GB , " Marilyn Daub " <mcdaub wrote: > > I see your point!!! I did not know they were that large.
