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 !

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...

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...

Count your blesssings

  "I thought you were dead" , my son said, recollecting how he felt post our accident and when i was being carried to the hospital - all of which he witnessed in person, full of fear and worry that the most terrible thing happened to his mother. These words, no matter how hard they are to hear, it was important for him to let me know how he felt. Behind all the brave face he put for everyone else, I needed to hear my son's actual emotion seeing me lifeless for a while. For the last week that I had been back home, he continued to stick to his father, shows up a lot of maturity and growth in the 3 weeks that I missed being his mother - during this time, I was 1 week out in Malaysia for work and 1 week in hospital and 1 week at home - as a patient! We are slowly getting back to the routine of being ourselves. Somethings we cannot get back to how it was anymore. We both have just changed. I don't cuddle him as much as I used to. I let him be, except when I need him to get...
