You can do roasting in 2 ways In Stove : One is by placing the eggplant straight on the burner, allowing the skin to get charred and blackened on all sides. Inside will be soft and mushy. In Oven : Place it in oven in broil mode – high for 10 -12 mins, until eggplant skin turns charred and imparts smoky flavor. Once it done, remove it from the oven. Discard the skin and now scrap the inner flesh from each half, scraping right down to the charred skin and mash it and keep this aside.By seeing below pics, you can understand ” how to remove inner flush from eggplant”.

  • Carrot Pudding with Raisins and Pistachios
    Carrot Pudding with Raisins and Pistachios Adapted from Madhur Jaffery;s Indian Cooking, Barron’s, 1983 I start this recipe by condensing the milk, but you can start with half the amount of milk, and a can of sweetened condensed milk, if you want your halva to come together faster. The rose water is the biggest deviation from tradition in this recipe, but K.M. and I both like the addition. But don’t hesitate to leave it out if you can’t find it, or want a more authentic taste. 2 quarts whole milk – preferably non-homogenized ½ cup sugar ½ teaspoon salt 12 cardamom pods 1 ½ inch stick of cinnamon ½ cup raisins ¼ cup rose water 1 cup pistachios, shelled, toasted 4 tablespoons Cardamom sugar (recipe follows) 1 lb. carrots, grated Heat the milk in a heavy sauce pan over medium heat. Add the sugar and spices and then stir until the sugar dissolves. Try to keep the milk simmering just below a boil, and stir it frequently, reducing the heat as necessary to prevent a burn. Your goal is to reduce the milk by half, which will take at least an hour or more – depending on the size of your pan; the wider the pan, the faster the reduction. While the milk reduces warm the rose water in the microwave for about 40 second, and then soak the raisins in the water – you can also do this the night before. Keep the raisins in the water for a least an hour. Using the pulse setting on the food processor roughly chop the pistachios.

  • Meals for Easy Swallowing
    1 INTRODUCTION Swallowing can become a significant problem for patients with ALS; and the joys and pleasures of eating become replaced with discomfort and anxiety. At an early stage patients may begin to have difficulty with foods such as popcorn, cornbread or nuts, and choking episodes may occur. Subsequently other foods cannot be swallowed readily, and the effort of chewing and swallowing turns a pleasurable experience into a burden. For the patient, the act of swallowing becomes compromised and the ordeal of eating becomes more time consuming. For the spouse, the task of preparing edible and appetizing foods poses an increasing challenge. The following collection of recipes is derived from our patients and their creative spouses who translated their caring into foods that look good, taste good, are easy to chew and to swallow, and minimize discomfort. Included are recipes for meats and other protein containing foods, fruits or fruit drinks, vegetables or dishes containing vegetables, as well as breads. Selections of beverages, desserts, and sauces are provided to add needed fat and calories to the diet. A balanced diet normally supplies enough nutrients for daily needs plus some extra. It is recommended that daily menu plans be made using the Basic Four Food Groups as the backbone. The suggested amounts are: Food GrouD Amount Per Dav Eauivalent to One Serving Milk 2 servings 1 cup pudding 1 cup milk or yogurt 1-3/4 cups ice cream 1-1/2 02. cheese 2 cups cottage cheese Meat 2 servings 2 02. lean meat, fish, poultry 2 eggs 4 Tbsps.
