	Creamy Cauliflower And Lakers Magic! by kathy gori One thing I love about fixing a tandoori chicken lunch is the simplicity. Once the chicken has been marinated, nothing goes better with this dish than a bread some pickled cucumbers and one veg. The most likely vegetable to find on my tandoori table is cauliflower. Especially when I can get a beautiful organic one for 99 cents!…	2 votes 1 review 2311 views
	World Cup Cabbage. Quick, Easy and Comforting When You Don't Make The Late Goal. by kathy gori I have to be honest here. I've never watched a soccer game. Basketball has always been my sport. The only reason that I've never really watched soccer is because like most citizens of the US of A, the TV machine has never told me to. But all of a…	2 votes 1 review 2482 views
	Squash In A Spice Paste Done Pronto! by kathy gori This has been one hell of a week, one of those 7 day stretches that includes everything on lifes' smorgey...except dental. Of course the week's not over yet. It's been a week of some nerves, some loss, some traveling, some stress and the general sense of just being unable to catch up. That said, I can't wait for Monday to start the…	2 votes 1 review 1 comment 4266 views

This morning it's crisp,…	2 votes 3020 views

	Indian Stuffed Okra (Bhindi Masala) by Mihir Shah The reason most folks don't have Okra in their first string of recipes is they don't know the right spices to use. Indian spiced okra dishes are gems. Your kids won't like it, but you and your friends will.

	Smoke Your Yogurt! by kathy gori Ever since I was a kid, I've been a sucker for flamboyant table gestures. You know what I'm talking about. The Caesar salad made at the table, the flaming Cherries Jubilee, the blazing Baked Alaska, all those guys at Benihana flinging sharp knives around. Drama! So it was the gesture I was looking for last night. Paula Wolfert was…	2 votes 1 review 3754 views

Yesterday, at the Farmers Market here in Sonoma one of our booths had the most beautiful long slender Japanese eggplants. In my early days of Indian cooking, since I was a vegetarian I…	1 vote 2720 views
	How Dry I Am by kathy gori Yesterday I posted a recipe that is considered a "wet" Vegetarian dish. So if the cauliflower is considered wet than what might you ask is "dry"? Dry is anything that has less of a liquid sauce, more of a thick sauce that clings to the vegetables, or many times spices and seasonings that roast onto them. I still had eggplants in the…	1 vote 1714 views
	Beet It! by kathy gori Yesterday I was over the moon that I'd found a new South Asian Market here in Sonoma county. As I think I'd mentioned before we have only ONE Indian market in the entire county and they're not always the best stocked. It's the thing I do miss about Los Angeles. Ready access to good ethnic grocers. I needed to go over to Santa Rosa…	1 vote 1675 views
