Burger Queen

My husband was reading through my posts and noticed that almost all posts were related to food. I am not too much of a foodie , but I love to cook and present yummy delights to that one person who complains that all I write about is food ! And inspite of all that , he's the one who suggested the title !

Here was what we had as a snack that turned out to be our dinner instead.

Here's our dining table filled with ingredients to make a yummy burger.
The Burger buns , Potato cutlet , sliced tomatoes and green pepper , lettuce leaves.
Main part of the burger is the aaloo tikki. Boiled potatoes , chillies , salt and some butter. Mashed all these together and added some Maida for it to blend in well and deep fried in oil with a coat of maida. The trial piece was yummy , so the same method was followed for the rest of the tikkis :)
Oh , I just love to show off these colours !
My husband helps me with the photographs so that I don't end up smearing the camera with flour and oil.

Assembling a Burger


Step 1 : To toasted Burger buns , I added some leftover white sauce.

Step 2 : Next came the Tikki.



Step 3 : Added in some fresh lettuce leaves.

Step 4 : Oh.. how can a burger be complete without a tomato slice ?

Step 5 : Capsicum slices

Step 6 : Had difficulty placing the small slices of cucumber , but managed it somehow.
I later realised it was better to place the cucumber at step 2 instead :)

Step 7 : Close the burger with the sesame seed covered bun

Step 8 : Look at the burger with pride and wonder whether it will fit your mouth

Step 9 : Enjoy the Burger !

Note : Steps 1-8 may be replaced by any other ingredient. And if all goes well , you will surely follow the Step 9.

Guten Appetit !

June - Doctor/Hospital month??? Is this the start of a trend?

 June 12th 2014, I went for a regular scan to my Gynec - 37 weeks into my pregnancy and was asked to go for an immediate scan, that followed a suggestion to get admitted right away, and then surgery was scheduled the next day. 28 years on earth and I had never been admitted at a hospital for anything, not even typhoid or chicken pox! And here I was hospitalized for 11 days, 1 pre-surgery, 10 post until my son recovered from jaundice ! And that's the end, I thought !  June 4th, 2022, I was out shopping with my son. My previous blog posts detail the ordeal and how i was again hospitalized for a week for concussion and surgery to my face for bruises. A plastic surgery that didn't change my "beauty".  Cut to June 16th 2023, a couple of days ago, woke up with a sharp, shooting pain, like contractions non-stop and ended up getting admitted, drips and pain killers not being effective, to rushing to a scan that helped find the root cause - Hemorrhage of cyst in ovary. Sounds ...

The Man

  Last week, this song "The Man" by Taylor Swift, played as I walked into office. It felt like a great way to start my work as I marched into my floor and inside my cabin. Pumped, I start my daily routine at work and as I get through the day, I realize I enjoy my work and that I am good at it. Would I be at a different level if I were a man? Maybe. But I would rather go through my journey my way because we cannot keep regretting what we cannot change. However, I do lend that hand to a younger woman and guide her so she learns from my mistakes too and can work smarter. I make sure I am the person representing my girl-tribe in moments where their skills are sought for.  This also reminds me of Cher's interview where she says that instead of marrying a rich man, she was the Rich Man !  I'm so sick of running as fast as I can Wondering if I'd get there quicker If I was a man And I'm so sick of them coming at me again 'Cause if I was a man Then I'd be the m...

Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night.

Some days when you don't want to start on some new show and you don't want to watch something without knowing the ending, you'd go back to shows or movies that you have loved as a child. Yesterday was one such day. I went on to watch Jim Carrey's "The Truman Show". When I watched it as a younger person, I liked it for Jim's acting and the entire storyline seemed outrageous and yet heartbreaking. How can one person's life be in front of camera all the time and how can one be living a lie !  Present age, in 2024, when I watched this, I saw it in a different light. With social media being rampant, with everyone having access to cameras on their phone to instantly capture a video, no one can escape being a "Truman". Any instance of your life can be captured by someone and you could end up being ridiculed or hailed a superstar overnight. The superstardom can fall overnight too, but the ridicule remains long after it subsides too. We also live a li...
