I don't know what am I cooking!

....but it's tasty. As far as it's tasty, I don't mind what am I eating too. I have eaten a hell lot of 'tasty' food, 'awesome tasty' food, 'sex-on-toast tasty' food etc.

When I was a bachelor, sharing a flat with a friend who is a happy-go-lucky guy in early 90s. One day I got back from office, found no vegetables in the kitchen, and my friend who agreed to bring vegetables nowhere to be seen (No cellphones then). I waited and waited....no sign of him! I got into the kitchen cursing him and found two medium size onions. I was hungry...need to cook something fast. First I put some (Lemon size) tamarind in one cup of water and kept it aside. Chopped the onion mercilessly with my sharp Kerala Kitchen Knife (K3) after making it more sharper. I love cutting onions with extremely sharp K3. Chopped one green chilly and a small piece of ginger also. Boiled a tea-spoon full of oil in a kadai and put all those chopped guys in to the boiling oil and stirrrrr fry until the onion become slightly brown. By this time the tamarind was ready to be squeezed. I squeezed it. I love squeezing! Added one more cup of water to it. Continued stirrrring those onion and company. Then added a tea-spoon full of coriander powder and half tea-spoon red chilly powder and quarter spoon turmeric powder. Stirrrrr continued until I feel like sneezing. I love sneezing. I love different types of sneezing. Before I could sneeze I added the tamarind water through a filter giving instant relief to the onion and gang and I ran to the balcony to sneeze. Haaachchooo.....almost 500 kilo calories stormed out of my nose. See... I could burn calorie by cooking. Got back to the kitchen and added salt, kept it for boiling. Then I took one and half cup of rice in a cooker and added two and half cup of water to it, kept on the second burner. Waited.....waited for the first whistle then waited for some more time... and switch the burner off just before the second whistle. The cooker couldn't sneeze....ha... ha... I am a villain! I didn't want the cooker to burn calorie, I wanted it to grow a fat bugger....I am cruel too! I removed the kadai from the stove ad kept it on the granite kitchen table. By then the liquid in the kadai was little bit thicker than when it started boiling. Suddenly I was enlightened to know that what I was cooking....it was ONION IMBLIKKUSH!
The art of eating : Take half of the rice (keep the other half for your friend...see I am not that cruel!) from the cooker on a plate and spread it, sprinkle some salt over it. Pour half of the brown liquid into the rice....eat it warm...not hot.
I ate it with a spoon slowly...ummm... tasty!
My friend still not back...I told you that he is happy go lucky! He was really lucky, he always back home before the food go cold!
I sat on the balcony until my eyelids become heavy....got to the bed thinking of Ursula Andres singing...Underneath the tamarind tree...as far as the lyrics concern.... for me, mango and tamarind are sour.
Hey...get to the kitchen and COOK AT SIGHT!
P.S : I know my English is horrible... but do you remember what language you were speaking in your last dream... well this is a dream.
