Hi Guys!

I hope your Saturday is as sunny as ours. Yay, Summer is back lol

I was just browsing the news and for a sec there, my heart skipped a beat! Someone in our town won 500K CAD, from last week's lottery. For a sec there, I was soooo hopeful, crossing my fingers, it was me, until I realized, I never bought any lottery tickets, boo-hoo. lol

So...let's just share a recipe for now :P

I asked my husband to boil me some matpe beans, but I did not really specify how much, so he cooked the whole bag. Of course, waaaaaay too much. It ended up as breakfast, lunch, and dinner :P And also, for snack time...which was this following Dal. Sooooo good, believe me :D My boys enjoyed it as well, so am happy.

Recipe may seem long, but the end result, is heaven.

  • 1/3 c x 4 cooked husk-less split matpe Beans (mashed potato texture)
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil/vegan margarine
  • 3/4 tsp cumin powder
  • 3/4 tsp coriander powder
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 of a large onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp minced garlic, ready to use
  • 1/2 tsp minced ginger, ready to use
  • A pinch or two cinnamon powder
  • 1/2 c vegetable broth
  • 1 large tomato, chopped
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • Coriander leaves, chopped
  • Naan bread, toasted

Into food processor, mix into powder and sift:

  • 1 black cardamoms
  • 3 cloves
  • A small piece of nutmeg

How To

  • Dry-fry spices, set aside (dry fry: frying without oil, like toasting on pan)
  • Heat oil, saute onion and garlic followed with ginger
  • Stir in fried spices and matpe Beans
  • Pour broth
  • Add in chopped tomato
  • Season
  • Serve sprinkled with chopped coriander and naan chips
  • Enjoy!

Now Imma go dig up my trash bin, to find a lottery ticket, just in case :P
