Rajasthani Exhibition
Ok Folks! This is an announcement more than a blog. The marwari in me is itching to do 'binnes' (business). I'm putting up a rajasthani exhibition in Bangalore on 21st and 22nd May 2011. It'll have the traditional Bandhani (bandhej) dress materials, accessories, jewelery and of course juttis.
The tentative venue is Safina Plaza, will post a confirmation soon. But be there if you are in Bangalore :)

Culinary experiments
I wasn't always interested in cooking. Food was something that mom served and you ate... where it came from who cares.. and now; i love to cook and i love to write about it too (www.teztadka.blogspot.com).
How did it all start? I don't really know, but i do know that some extraordinary culinary experiments in the past have something to contribute to it. As i was adding posts to my recipe blog, i kept thinking about these and had to put them down somewhere. So I am sharing them here, let's see if you are brave enough to try them.
Also, before i move on to the recipes, let me state that none of these are my creations. The credit totally goes to a very dear childhood friend of mine. I hope he is still experimenting and hope to get some interesting ideas from him sometime :)
So here goes:
Cheese shake:
2 cubes of amul cheese - grated
1 glass thick milk - chilled
2 tsp sugar
ice
Put everything in a blender and churn well. Serve in tall opaque glasses (so no one can see what they are getting in to)
Icecream delight
This is a great recipe when you have 2 ice candies and 5 people to share them.
1 orange ice candy (or orange dolly will do)
1 chocobar
juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup water
In a pan, scrape the orangebar and chocobar clear off the sticks. Heat on low flame till the ice cream melts. Add water and heat some more. Add lemon juice and serve in small glasses. Or better pour down their throats straight...
Sweet and Spicy Burger
This is an amazing recipe and is ready in a jiffy. Perfect surprise for your friends:
1 burger
1 rasgulla
When your friend isn't looking, squeeze the rasgulla over the burger patty and cover up your tracks. Go back to your meal as if nothing has happened.
I hope you will try at least one of these. If not the taste.. the memories last forever :)
