I had steamed eggs, and I made a masala / Parsi omelette for the other egg eater. I looked up the Dishoom recipe only to discover that it was exactly the same as my dad’s - except for the additional step of finishing in the oven, which ruined the texture imo. Sigh. Live and learn.
I prepared a few lbs. of cleaned and cut carrots in a pot with just enough water to soft boil. While that was going, I softened 3 shallots in a bit of olive oil. Grated up a inch piece of fresh ginger and grabbed the curry jar. Then everything went into the blender, pureed until semi smooth. Returned to the pot to adjust salt, pepper and curry powder to taste.
Yesterday I combined leftovers to have miso butter shiitake mushrooms with the last of the crustless quiche (savory egg custard?) I made a few days ago.
Eggs were truffled, I thought the mushrooms had too much miso the other day, but somehow it all worked.
I’m back in egg custard mode… between asian versions and quiche, I could eat some every day. I guess there’s also kuku, for a more vegetable forward version.
