Indian Cooking Workshop on 20.03.2018 at my workplace

Workplace must be fun and should be a place we love to go, bringing around most of our day time, strictly calculating on an average most of the people spend 8 hours sleeping, another 6-7 hours with family and another 8-9 hours with colleagues at workplace. If that is fun filled, one would love to be there and feels contented. Working in different teams never gives us a chance to spend good quality time with people from other teams. A casual talk over the lunch with colleagues 2 weeks back about cooking and the plan of a workshop popped up. And yes I came up with a plan of 3 menus, posted them in doodle and votes were counted. It was decided that we would do a menu that included Vegetable Cutlets as starters, Pav Bhaji as main course and Vermicelli Payasam as dessert.

Baked Samosa with Aloo/Potatoes

Baking is something that I occasionally do, but for me to ensure my newly built kitchen is up and running this was something I had to try, I mean, to be frank I wanted to check my oven (As how it works) Now for me I get wild thoughts and a list of food items flash in my mind and my brain scans them, when I try to get creative. Well it was DH's birthday and ways to surprise him in simple things gave me immense pleasure. I tried this time something baked for him to carry to his colleagues. Yes, baked version of our very own Aloo Samosa. It's real taste is when it is deep fried. I  am pretty much sure it couldn't be reached for sure but not a bad idea to have them baked says my inner mind (deep there arises my health consciousness).
