Freezer leftover revamp for dinner tonight. Mom had made her usual mutton roast a while back. I used the frozen leftovers for a riff on a Pasanday recipe I enjoyed a while back. It wasn’t as rich as that version, but still tasty.
Mom had idlis that I made from scratch yesterday (ie from soaking rice and dal), with instant sambar (I re-flavored dal from lunch and added a few vegetables) and coconut chutney. She had a really tough day today, so I was very pleased that she enjoyed the simple comfort food.
The batter was made with her guidance using ingredients she specially ordered before everything went sideways — check out the glorious ferment on it!
