             &lt;ol class="instructions"&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;For the beef jhal faraizi, boil the potatoes in a pan of salted water and set aside to cool. Once cool, peel them and cut into 7mm/⅓in cubes.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Heat the oil in a large frying pan, preferably non-stick, over a medium-high heat. When hot, add the cumin seeds. Let them sizzle for five seconds, then add the onion, cooked potatoes and chillies. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Lower the heat to medium and stir-fry the mixture for 4-5 minutes, or until the onion has softened and is translucent. Add the beef, salt and lots of freshly ground black pepper, then stir-fry for a further minute. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Reduce the heat to medium-low. Press down on all the ingredients in the pan with a spatula to form a flat cake that fills the pan. Continue to cook for 12-15 minutes, turning the pan so that the bottom of the ‘cake’ browns evenly. Keep warm. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;For the karhai broccoli, heat the oil in a karhai (or lidded wok or frying pan) over a medium-high heat. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;When the oil is hot, add the asafoetida, cumin and mustard seeds (be aware of mustard seeds popping out of the pan into your eyes). As soon as the mustard seeds begin to pop, add the broccoli. Stir-fry for one minute, then add the salt and cayenne pepper. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Pour in four tablespoons of water and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the pan with a lid, lower the heat until the mixture is simmering gently and cook for 7-8 minutes, or until the broccoli is just tender, stirring now and then.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, for the sweet-and-sour butternut squash, heat the oil in a lidded pan over a medium heat. When hot, add the asafoetida and mustard seeds. As soon as the seeds start to pop - a matter of seconds - add the squash. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Stir-fry the squash for 2-3 minutes, or until the pieces just start to brown. Add 50ml/2fl oz water, cover the pan with a lid, lower the heat and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the squash is tender.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Add the salt, sugar, cayenne pepper and yoghurt. Stir until well combined and cook, uncovered, over a medium heat, until the yoghurt mixture has warmed through. Stir in the fresh coriander.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;To serve, break up the the beef jhal faraizi into four equal portions and serve it hot with the karahi broccoli and squash.&lt;/p&gt;

Cover, turn the heat to low and simmer gently for 3-4 hours or until the beans are quite tender. With a potato masher, beat or mash about half of the beans lightly until they form an exceedingly coarse purée. Half the beans should remain whole. Add the ginger, garlic, tomatoes, cayenne pepper, salt, butter, cream and garam masala. Cook very gently for another 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;The beans may be served just this way with a final dollop of butter at the top.

When the onion is a rich, reddish brown, put in the cayenne pepper.

             &lt;ol class="instructions"&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Make the spice paste: In a small frying-pan, heat 1 tbsp of the oil over a medium-high heat. When hot add the cumin seeds, chillies, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, black peppercorns and poppy seeds. Stir and fry briefly until lightly roasted. Now put these into a clean coffee grinder and grind to a powder. Empty into the container of an electric blender. Put the garlic, ginger, turmeric and salt into the blender as well, along with 6-8tbsp water. Process until you have a fine paste, pushing down with a rubber spatula if needed. Set aside.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Heat the remaining 4tbsp oil in a large saucepan over a medium-high heat. When hot, add the bay leaves, cardamom pods, cinnamon, fennel seeds, cloves and urad dal. Stir and fry briefly until the urad dal turns red, then add the curry leaves if using. Stir once or twice and add the onions. Fry the onions until they are soft and just lightly coloured. Now add the spice paste. Continue to stir and fry for about 4-6 minutes, adding a little water to prevent sticking. Add the tomato. Stir and fry for a further 3-4 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Add the chicken pieces to the onion and spice mixture. Stir until they are well coated, then add 600ml/1pt/2½ cups water, just enough to cover. Bring to the boil. Turn the heat to low, cover and simmer until the chicken is almost cooked, about 20-25 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken pieces. Turn the heat up to medium-high, and reduce the sauce until very thick. This should take about 6-8 minutes. Replace the chicken, fold gently into the sauce and cook for a further 5 minutes before serving.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;             &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5092839443278002675-2160597356614947983?l=makenimpress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5092839443278002675/posts/default/2160597356614947983'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5092839443278002675/posts/default/2160597356614947983'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makenimpress.blogspot.com/2012/01/chettinad-pepper-chicken.html' title='Chettinad pepper chicken'/><author><name>Sreenivasarao Dommu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05889060983651584415</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bdYTN9c8fwA/Tvs9T7__fxI/AAAAAAAABIw/Cfgqn61Vxh0/s220/dsvr.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092839443278002675.post-502296385385154495</id><published>2012-01-22T16:55:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2012-01-22T16:59:12.640+05:30</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Indian Recipes'/><title type='text'>Lamb tikka masala</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="article-title is-vegetarian"&gt; &lt;h1 class="fn"&gt;Lamb tikka masala&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Indian Recipes&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;div id="ingredients" class="module padded"&gt; &lt;h3&gt;Ingredients&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;2 tsp powdered &lt;span class="name food"&gt;ginger&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;2 cloves &lt;span class="name food"&gt;garlic&lt;/span&gt;, finely chopped&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;1 tsp &lt;span class="name food"&gt;chilli powder&lt;/span&gt; (optional)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;2 tbsp &lt;span class="name food"&gt;fresh coriander&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;juice of 2 &lt;span class="name food"&gt;limes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;2 tbsp &lt;span class="name food"&gt;vegetable oil&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;salt and &lt;span class="name food"&gt;black pepper&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;900g/2lb &lt;span class="name food"&gt;lamb&lt;/span&gt;, diced&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;1 &lt;span class="name food"&gt;onion&lt;/span&gt;, finely chopped&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;1 red &lt;span class="name food"&gt;chilli&lt;/span&gt;, de-seeded and finely chopped&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;2 tbsp &lt;span class="name food"&gt;turmeric&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;300ml/½ pint &lt;span class="name food"&gt;double cream&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;½ &lt;span class="name food"&gt;lemon&lt;/span&gt;, juice only&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="ingredient"&gt;&lt;span class="name food"&gt;fresh coriander&lt;/span&gt;, to garnish&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;                                     &lt;div id="preparation" class="module bordered js-accordion"&gt;          &lt;h2&gt;Preparation method&lt;/h2&gt;              &lt;ol class="instructions"&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;In a large bowl, mix the ginger, 1 tbsp tumeric garlic, chilli (if using), coriander, lime juice, 1 tbsp of the oil, salt and pepper.

Don't remove the lid; just leave the rice to continue cooking in the pan for about 5 minutes until you're ready to serve. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;The rice should have absorbed all the water and will just need fluffing up with a fork.

When hot, add the ginger, garlic and cayenne pepper. Stir and fry for about 2-3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and chillies. Stir and fry for 5 minutes. Add the lamb. Stir and fry for 2-3 minutes. Add 25ml/1fl oz/2 tbsp water, stir again and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook on low heat for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is fully absorbed. Add the salt and fresh coriander. Stir to mix. Divide this lamb mixture into 4 portions. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Knead the dough once again, divide it into 4 equal portions and form into balls. On a lightly floured surface, flatten each ball and with a rolling pin, roll it out into a disc that is approximately 10cm/4in in diameter. Place a portion of the lamb mixture in the centre of one of the discs. Lift the edges of the dough to cover the filling completely and then give the gathered edges a slight twist to seal the bundle shut. Put the bundle on your floured work surface, sealed side down. Flatten the bundle slightly and roll it out again to form a disc about 19cm/7½in in diameter.&lt;/p&gt;                                        &lt;div id="video2-header" class="technique clearfix closed"&gt;                                               &lt;strong&gt;Technique:&lt;/strong&gt; Kneading bread                                            &lt;/div&gt;                                            &lt;div id="video2-video" class="video"&gt;                       &lt;div id="p008s55s" class="technique-clip"&gt;                       &lt;/div&gt;                      &lt;/div&gt;                                                                                                         &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Set a heavy, cast-iron frying-pan or large tava over a high heat. When very hot, lift up the rolled paratha and slip it on. Let it cook for about 1½ minutes. Flip it over and cook the second side for another minute. Brush the top with 1½ tsp of the ghee or butter or oil and quickly flip the paratha over again. Brush 1½ tsp of the ghee over the top, press down gently all over the surface with a spatula and cook for 30 seconds. Flip over. Cook for about 15 seconds and flip over. Keep flipping over at 15-second intervals a few more times, until the paratha is golden with a few dark brown spots. It should also cook through. Remove to a plate. Keep it covered while you make the remaining parathas.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;             &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5092839443278002675-3988635446098467055?l=makenimpress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5092839443278002675/posts/default/3988635446098467055'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5092839443278002675/posts/default/3988635446098467055'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makenimpress.blogspot.com/2012/01/flaky-breads-stuffed.html' title='Flaky breads stuffed'/><author><name>Sreenivasarao Dommu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05889060983651584415</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bdYTN9c8fwA/Tvs9T7__fxI/AAAAAAAABIw/Cfgqn61Vxh0/s220/dsvr.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092839443278002675.post-66389218343144713</id><published>2012-01-19T05:24:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2012-01-19T05:25:10.634+05:30</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Indian Recipes'/><title type='text'>Masala dosa in a chapatti</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="article-title is-vegetarian"&gt;

Grind to a coarse powder. Put the ground pistachios, sugar, poppy seeds and milk into a bowl. Mix to a paste. Put aside.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;To make the coconut casing: Put the sugar into a small, heavy-bottomed pan. Add 4tbsp water. Stir and bring to a simmer. Cook over a meduim-high heat for 2-3 minutes until the syrup forms a single thread when a little is dropped from a spoon into a cup of cold water. Remove from the heat. Add the coconut and cardamom. Mix well. Add the condensed milk. Stir to mix. &lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Lay a 23cm/9in piece of cling film on your work suface. While the coconut paste is still warm, roll it into a thick, 23cm/9in sausage. Put the coconut sausage horizontally on to the centre of the piece of cling film and flatten it to form a rectangle about 9cm/3½in wide.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Roll the pistachio paste into a separate sausage of the same length. Put the rolled pistachio sausage on the coconut rectangle, slightly below the centre, a little closer to your end. With the aid of the cling film, fold the coconut paste over the pistachio paste. Press down on the cling film to firm up the roll. Now continue rolling, being careful to keep the cling film on the outside of the roll, until you have a slim 'Swiss roll'. Press down evenly on the cling film to get a neat roll. Let the roll cool and harden a bit. Remove the cling film and cut crossways into 1cm/½in thick slices.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;             &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5092839443278002675-8979222722211311062?l=makenimpress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5092839443278002675/posts/default/8979222722211311062'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5092839443278002675/posts/default/8979222722211311062'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://makenimpress.blogspot.com/2012/01/coconut-pistachio-sweetmeat.html' title='Coconut pistachio sweetmeat'/><author><name>Sreenivasarao Dommu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05889060983651584415</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bdYTN9c8fwA/Tvs9T7__fxI/AAAAAAAABIw/Cfgqn61Vxh0/s220/dsvr.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092839443278002675.post-1954886914093097075</id><published>2012-01-11T04:11:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2012-01-11T04:12:46.263+05:30</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Indian Recipes'/><title type='text'>Tamarind crabcakes  - Indian Recipes</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="article-title"&gt;&lt;h1 class="fn"&gt;Tamarind crabcakes&lt;/h1&gt;

                  &lt;p&gt;For the green sauce, heat the oil in a non-stick saucepan. Add the sliced onions and fry until they are golden-brown. Remove and keep to one side, reserving the oil in the pan.&lt;/p&gt;                                    &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="instruction"&gt;                   &lt;p&gt;Place all the other green sauce ingredients, except for the reserved oil and water, into a food processor or blender.
