Description

South Indian style baby corn stir fry . This dish is adhitya bhels recipe from NDTV GOOD TIMES . I loved the innovative concept of how he used this vegetable in a typical South Indian style . The South Indian twist makes it more interesting . i have made a few changes from his recipe to match my comfort zone as I do always . As you start to chew this dish you feel a combination of new flavors burst in your mouth but as you tend to swallow it feels like its just like how mummy makes it . Any thing deep fried is irresistible to me ( actually any form of FOOD is irresistible to me now a days ) . Wonder why all that tastes good is a taboo for us to be consumed . The pain and mental stress we female non – stop foodies have to go through is un imaginable . 24 hours a day your mind is stuck with food being around you in the kitchen , on the table , in your mind , on your telly , in the laptop , in your social networks , in the food related groups on the net , in your dreams …. The list can just go on and on . Finally all you get to do is treat yourself with every thing through your eyes , smell through your nose , but nothing much should be done through your mouth . At times when you think come on once in a while its ok , go ahead and treat yourself … you do dive in and hog . just as you finish , you instantly feel your soul being pumped with guilt and your heart getting heavier . so the joy of soul full food is there in you only till you finish eating . I pity all my fellow folks who ever are going through this as I am . But ultimately , one cannot think well , love well , sleep well , if one has not dined well !!!!!
