Food, glorious food!

My favourite Indian foods are:

·         Kadai chicken

·         Afghani chicken

·         Egg curry

·         Butter naan

·         Aloo paratha (paratha stuffed with potato and chilli)

·         Aloo tikki (street food. Fried potato cakes)

·         Pani puri (street food. ‘water balls’)

·         Chole bhature (street food. Chickpea curry and fried bread)

·         Curd (similar to natural yogurt. Eaten sweetened or with salt and pepper)

·         Kheer (Indian rice pudding)

·         Jalebi (street food. Sweet fried batter)  

We don’t really get many opportunities to eat western food so our western ‘treats’ include:

·         Cheese slices (the plastic stuff you put on burgers)

·         Sour cream and onion crisps

·         5 rupee lollies (Ice lollies...for 5 rupees)

·         Biscuits

·         Toast

Our local corner shop owner must really love us!
