Making Bread and Cooking in Tizz Kitchen

This weekend I was thinking what can I make for my weekdays lunch. I look at my fridge and I have few vegetables that could be used for. Then, an easy vegetable biryani is one of the choices. I never made it. I search in www.indianhealthyrecipes.com - It is one of my favorite website to learn different kind of Indian food. Biryani actually comes from Persian. It is the art of cooking rice with frying or roasting. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biryani  It gives another different taste of the Basmati rice with the mixture of vegetables, spices, nuts and raisins. Here I created my own variety of vegetable Biryani. I used aubergines and cabbages in my vegetable Biryani. For the rice, you may use leftover rice or overnight rice.

Another day with playing dough in the kitchen. I love to play dough in the kitchen. It relieves my mind and let my creativity playing around with the available ingredients in my kitchen. Because I do not have oven here, I could only do something on my electric stove with pan and pot. I planned to make flat bread with whole wheat flour / Atta in India. The flour is a bit rough than all purpose flour / Maida in India. Here I do another experiment with Indian flour and my sourdough starter that is almost 3 months old.

As a girl with Chinese blood, I cannot resist of having chinese breakfast. I always crave for it whenever I am. One of the favorite chinese breakfast is congee and fried doughstick. Here I am, present my recently experiment with sourdough starter to make fried doughstick.

I try to make pita bread using the sourdough starter and a pan on my electric stove. It turned out good and showed its puff.
