Aaloo Samosa at home

Made some aaloo samosa's at home. Could not get the authentic 'Mithaiwala' taste - probably because did not use onions and garlic; but tasted very good otherwise - recipe to be posted shortly !

Make this was a little challenging, but had to learn it the hard way and used semi-circles to make cones

Bikanervala Special Thali @ Home

Bikanervala takeaway Thali is one of the best vegetarian take away I have ever eaten. We have always been used to the usual pizza / subway stuff, but this Thali is something extraordinary. They have a Jain version without the Onions and Garlic thrown in. Got it home for me and my wife y'day. It saved us from the trouble of taking our Son and our little girl (6 months old) to the hotel and end up taking care of the little ones instead of eating !

The Thali had the following:

1) Raitha - 1 cup
2) Paratha - 2 triangle parathas (was a little oily)
3) Rolled Roasted papad - 1 nos.
4) Pickle packet.
5) Paneer Butter Masala
6) Dal Makhni
7) Carrot Peas Sabzi (Tasted like Veg Jaipuri)
8) Fried rice (Peas and Panner)
9) Cucumber Salad
10) Shahi Gulab Jamoon

It was a delightful experience and served fresh. It survived well the 40 mins journey back home.
