I end up the 30 minutes call to my mom on how to cook Maggi (Yeah! I don't know how to.) with totally no idea on how to start. She and my sister had gone to her maikka(mom's place) for a weeks stay and there is this whole house for myself. (YAAY!)
Full on masthi! What do you expect? It was then that my stomach reminded me that I had to eat something. Went to kitchen only to find that my favorite cookies were over. My sis would have finished them.ARGH. What do I do now?
Maggi came to my rescue. Chalo acha hai atleast yeh tho chodke gayi hai! :|
But how to cook?!
I called up my mom who instead of telling me how to cook started discussing about the new fishes in the pond there, neighbours daughter who got a engineering seat and finally about my grandma's appam . :( (she really had to discuss that now!)
Finally I got the recipe. Out to work!
Switch on the heater. *beep* Oh! I forgot to keep the vessel. Right.
*A weird sound* The vessel turns to brownish red.
Switch off the heater.ASAP. Call from mom who says" Don't
forget to take some water in the vessel before you keep it on the heater."
Obviously I dint tell her about the vessels condition.
I start again with another vessel, of course, with some water in it. Empty the give powder, which started forming balls. I take a spoon to break them! (never seen mom do all these)
Finally goes in THE maggi. I stir. OMG! My glasses. Covered with vapour. By the time I fix them my maggi... Got stuck in the vessel. I tried to take it out. Finally its done.
I transfer it to a bowl which looked good and my maggi din't.
Never mind. Poured some sauce and here I go with my first cooked food.
It did taste good! :D My HARD WORK paid.
Though I had to feed little bit of maggi to the vessel too (See how generous I am) I enjoyed cooking and eating it.
Now I am PATIENTLY waiting for my mom to get back home and mourn for her darling vessel's condition! :D
For someone who is a huge fan of cooking (me) I'm cracking up over this! Lol.
