IMAM BAIYILDI(the imam fainted).”-STUFFED AUBERGINE 😂😂 Another common name especially in India is “Brinjals” is known as king of vegetables as almost all vegetable this one is added. Let the story begin “A long time ago there lived a Turkish imam, well known for his appetite and love of good food. One day he surprised his friends by announcing his engagement to the beautiful young daughter of a rich olive oil merchant. At this stage, the imam’s friends were not aware of her abilities as a cook. Part of her dowry was a consignment of the very finest olive oil. The wealthy merchant gave the groom twelve great jars of the prized oil, each one as big as a man. Following the wedding, the young daughter quickly revealed her talents as a Turkish cook and every day prepared a special dish for her new food-loving husband. Stuffed aubergine in olive oil was his absolute favorite, and so he asked his wife to make it for him every night as the centrepiece of his dinner. Being a good wife, she did as she was told, and made the delicious dish for twelve days in a row. On the thirteenth day, however, when the imam sat down to dinner, his favourite aubergine dish was starkly absent. The imam demanded to know the reason for its disappearance. The bride replied, “My dear husband, I cannot make your favourite dish anymore, for we have no more olive oil. You will have to buy some more.” The lmam was so shocked by the news that he fainted. And so ever since that day, his favorite dish has become known as ‘Imam Bayildi’,(the imam fainted).” ~Erik Baji Treasuryvala #follow4follow, #Followforfollow,#Likes,#like4like, #commentforcommentback, #Aubergines, #comment4comment,#followers, #Likeforfollow,#potatoes,#loveforfood, #food, #foodbeast,#tryit, #brinjals, #mumbaifoodblogger, #mumbaifoodexplorer, #thecutsteve, #cookingdiary, #designedbite, #yummyfoods, #chompeatery, #baingainbharva,#loveforfood, #food, #managementlesson, #foodbeast, #tryitordiet, #foodmaniacindia, #eatorpass, #mumbaifoodblogger, #mumbaifoodexplorer, #exploringplates,

First Class Railway Mutton (Lamb) Curry History Railway mutton curry or first class railway mutton (lamb) curry is a spicy Indian curry dish served in all “First Class” compartments on Indian trains. It is said that it was first introduced on the Frontier Mail (Golden Temple Mail) run by the Western Railway during pre-independence era. There are many popular stories on how railway mutton curry originated. The story goes that a drunken British officer stumbled into the railway kitchen during midnight. By that time the kitchen service was over and the cooks were making food for them. One such dish was the Calcutta Mangsho Jhol or Bengali mutton curry known for its fiery and spicy taste. The British didn’t appreciate such spicy taste and the dish was changed from a spicy curry to a subtle one by adding coconut milk and yogurt. Such was the taste that the officer included it on the train’s food menu, and fondly called it the Railway Mutton Curry. The officer found the mutton curry very delicious and from that day it was served on the First Class Compartments of the Indian Railways. *Mangshor Jhol – Bengali Mutton Curry The second version retells the story with an English army officer travelling in a train. Whatever the story be, the Railway Mutton curry is one of the most popular non-veg curries of India. It is a less-spicy version of the classic Bengali mutton curry (Mangshor Jhol), with coconut milk. It is served with plain rice or bread. ~ Erik Baji Treasuryvala #muttoncurry , #mangshorjhol ,#Railwaymuttoncurry , # Goldentemplemail #loveforfood, #food, #foodbeast, #tryitordiet, #foodmaniacindia, #eatorpass, #mumbaifoodblogger, #mumbaifoodexplorer, #exploringplates, #foodiedilse, #indianfoodiye, #thecutsteve, #cookingdiary, #designedbite, #yummyfoods, #chompeatery,#Likes , #Likeforfollow , #like4like ,#follow4follow , #Followforfollow ,#commentforcommentback , #comment4comment , #followers,

Are French Fries really French? The French gave the world the hot air baloon, the sewing machine, and the bikini. They even gave the United States the Statue of Liberty. However, one thing the French cannot claim is the French fry. Despite its name, the French fry is not French. The origins of the French fry have been traced back to Belgium, where historians claim Potatoes were being fried in the late-1600s. According to local Belgian , poor villagers living in Meuse Valley often ate small fried fish they caught in the river. During the winter months the river would freeze over — making fishing impossible & forcing the villagers to find other sources of food. Enter the potato. The villagers turned to the root plant, slicing and frying it much in the same way they prepared the fish. And just like that, the earliest French fries were born. American soldiers stationed in Belgium were first introduced to French fries during World War I. As the official language of the Belgian army was French, soldiers nicknamed the delicious fried potatoes “French fries." The name stuck, and decades later we're still giving credit to the wrong country. Does everyone eat French Fries with Ketchup? French fries are one of the most popular side dishes in the world. When it comes to dipping, fries often find themselves covered in ketchup, Mayonnaise, or vinegar, but that seems to be where the universal preference ends. In Belgium, people prefer to eat French fries with cooked mussels or with a fried egg on top. The United Kingdom is famous for its “ Fish and chips." In the Middle East, fries are wrapped in pita bread with chicken In France they are served with grilled steak. Canadians serve up poutine, a dish consisting of french fries and cheese curds, topped with brown gravy! ~ Erik Baji Treasuryvala #frenchfries, #potatoes ,#friedchips , #loveforfood, #food,#foodbeast, #tryitordiet, #mumbaifoodblogger, #mumbaifoodexplorer, #thecutsteve, #cookingdiary, #designedbite, #yummyfoods, #chompeatery,#Likes , #Likeforfollow , #like4like ,#follow4follow , #Followforfollow ,#commentforcommentback , #comment4comment , #followers ,
