Did I tell you I used to work for Arla food's (the same Arla that’s losing 1million per day in the Gulf states due to the boycott) And to add insult to injury they have to payout my compensation :lol:[/quote]

Double ouch!

I didn't realize what a huge company they are... apparently them and Sodexo are basically the top two in international dairy providers

everyone keeps reassuring me that that^ is the easiest part and its the rolling into a perfect circle that's difficult... :?

personally i think they both as hard as each other

in my house-older sis has mastered rolling chappati's but not mixing the flour

whilst i have mastered mixing the flour and not rolling round chappati's yet

it takes AGES to learn how to get the water quantity right

u only learn thru trial and error

Trust me the kneading is hard...

Like lilsis said it took me years.... just about got the hang of it...

the rolling isnt as hard...but [b]perfect [/b]circle is something thats not by me yet

both take years of practice

but it just takes a tad longer to learn how to make round chappati;s

btw Mr Admin are u home alone? and dont u have any sisters to help?

answer to ur Qs lilsis:
[quote="Admin"]ok guys I need recipe's.

I am gonna be living alone for a bit.[/quote]

yeah i read that

i shuda asked WHY is he home alone and doesnt he have any sisters that could help him out?

Admin,

Grains and flours, beans and pulses, fruit and veg, herbs, eggs and various dairy, pastas, so on and so on, bake, boil or fry, use your noggin, have fun. [url=http://www.desicookbook.com]Or try this[/url].

Home alone, No sisters.

Yesterday i cooked everything myself. But today (well sunday...) I was slightly lazy. got precooked chicken nuggets, and hadsome left over jalfrezi.

And got some chips from someone elses house.

I broke my first rule there. I had decided not to eat in anyone elses house, as last time I managed to do that everyday... after the first few days I had no choice as people thought I was trying to insult them, or wouldnot take no for an answer.

This timeI made it abundantly clear that i was gonna do everything myself. Gets rid of the hassle of everyone mithering you, even though they have the best intentions.

I love yoghurt though... I might try lassi curry in a few days...

Admin, your attempt was impressive. If I was home alone I wouldn’t bother….I don’t see the point for cooking for one.

Daal (lentils) is a pretty easy dish and so is chicken…and you can do lots of things with chicken.

And Shazam…I heard tea isn’t good for you :? (green tea is though).

[quote="Admin"]

... I might try lassi curry in a few days...[/quote]

:?

do tell us how that goes

I will probably try that in a few days...

Today i was lazy. got to town at half 9 so thought may aswell get a takeout.

The thing about cooking for yourself is that it does not matter if its good or bad. well it matters, but you do not subject someone else to torture if it is bad.

I am home alone for hiopefully more tha two months... so takeouts are not really a good idea.

Too much tea is not good for you. But for that you need to basically binge on it. a decent amount of tea is good for you. It relaxes the mind. Gets rid of headaches. and the caffeine helps wake you up.

However most asians put way too much sugar in tea. and the normal 'paki tea' where you boil it in milk is strong and can be bad for you...

well that is what i have heard anyway...

i drink tea twice a day

only english tea though with two sugars

surely that cant be bad for me

oooh boy... this is bad.

I woke up at 4:30am feeling really nauseous and now my vision is getting blurry and i'm dehydrated can't breathe and shivering.

Not good... no damn good

I think i've got some kinda food poisoning

awww Davie boys ill

wrap up warm, stock up on fluids and stay in bed all day

and keep ur lurgies to urself :evil:

Now you know why I do not smoke:

[b]Smoking: The killer facts [/b]

One-quarter of adults in the UK smoke, down from half 30 years ago.
Smokers puff their way through 77 billion cigarettes annually.

Almost one-third of girls aged 15 and 16 smoke.

People in the 20 to 24 age group smoke the most - 38 per cent of men and 34 per cent of women.

The Government says a ban would encourage 700,000 smokers to quit in the first year.

Britain has the highest tobacco taxes in the EU, with £3.84 in every £4.80 pack of cigarettes going to the Treasury.

These duties total £9.5bn annually.

Three of the world's five biggest tobacco firms are British and make £2.9bn in pre-tax profits.

Every year, 100,000 people die because of smoking: 33,000 of them from lung cancer.

Smoking costs the NHS almost £2bn a year.

For the long-term smoker, life expectancy is 8 to 12 years less than a non-smoker.

Exposure to passive smoke increases the risk to a non-smoker of heart disease and lung cancer by 25 per cent, according to one study.

Another study finds the passive smoking link unproven.

Ireland, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Malta and New Zealand have so far introduced a ban.

A publicans' group says that a ban could mean losses of £3.5bn for the industry and cost 75,000 jobs.

Of those who go to pubs, 46 per cent are smokers.

A survey of 3,000 people last year found that 71 per cent were in favour of a total smoking ban

Unless those are very temporary symptoms please get checked ASAP.

Yes. Let a GP examine you. Its most probably nothing. But its a good idea to be safe.

Smoking is bad for your health! :shock:

other way round!
