RETURNING HOME

Natasha Romanoff x Reader

Request: Nope :)

Summary: After a long mission Natasha wants to cook for her returning girlfriend, but... things go wrong. This is a short one but hope you enjoy 👍

Warnings: feelings of low self-esteem; mentions of Six of Crows; unedited chapter

Word Count: 1,1K+

Natasha was an agent. A spy. A former assassin. An Avenger. She was an idol for countless S.H.I.E.L.D. trainees and agents alike, tough, smart, seductive, everything. She could do anything she willed herself to do. Anything she wanted to be able to do.

At least that's what she was telling herself.

At three in the afternoon she had decided she would cook one of her girlfriend's favourite Indian curries; Aloo Gohbi. Two hours she had struggled with the relatively simple dish. In ten minutes (y/n) would be there, and then it would be too late.

She told herself all it took was one more try. One more go. Or at least she could speed-clean the kitchen so that she would never know Natasha tried in the first place.

But she had failed. She had failed her girlfriend and herself.

Sighing, she leaned back against a counter, involuntarily sniffling as she observed the mess before her. Pots and pans lay discarded all along the stove and sink, bowls and cutlery spread throughout the room, painting a rather chaotic picture.

Natasha groaned, cupping her face in her hands as she felt her eyes tear up. You had recently convinced her to read some of your favourite books, and due to the lack of work she was experiencing lately - not that she was complaining - she may or may not have twisted down the rabbit hole of fantasy and romance novels.

Now perhaps reading depictions of romantic sweetness and sexual tension followed by a book such as Six of Crows sure to awaken her belief in the old saying memento mori, a reminder that we shall all die, wasn't the best course of action and might have had something to do with the stray tears coursing down her cheeks.

But while the recent fictional dramatics certainly didn't help, Natasha could tell her desperation stemmed from a far older need to please. To be good enough. To manage everything.

And while she found it almost silly that this led her to cry over inedible or burnt curry, sometimes emotion simply worked that way.

A knock on the door startled her out of her frozen state, leading her to scurry along the tiled and wooden floor to meet you.

"Tasha? It's me. Codeword's 'There's a package from the Lemon Tree for you'. You home?"

Natasha fumbled with the doorknob for a prolonged moment before ripping it open, immediately being engulfed by your arms.

"Hey, Natty," you whispered into her ear, kissing her temple. "I've missed you so much."

"I've missed you, too. Come in, it's scorching hot out here." You smiled as she led you in, quickly past the kitchen, into the living room, pointedly ignoring your mumbled 'only 32 degrees...'.

"You've cut your hair!" you gasped, running your fingers through the red strands. "And you had your nails done and- Darling, why are your eyes red?"

Your tone and expression morphed to a concerned one and Natasha blinked quickly in hopes of erasing evidence, but it was too late.

"No, they're not. I mean, if they are, I don't know why. They don't hurt or anything." She still marvelled at how her ability to lie to you always amounted to near nothing.

"Tasha," you repeated firmly, awaiting a more substantial answer.

"I... look in the kitchen if you must." You hesitated, contemplating asking her to tell you herself, but eventually decided it wasn't necessary.

You gently took her by the hand, guiding her back to the kitchen where you wrapped an arm around her waist, surveilling the damage with mild surprise.

"It smells nice," you commented playfully, making her groan, burying her face in your neck. "Was this for me, baby?"

"Yeah... It was... supposed to be aloo ghobi and dal. And some rice. I'm not sure where I went wrong." You slowly moved about a bit with Natasha still clinging to your side, looking at the pans.

"Well, the rice is good, just not basmati rice, so that's unusual... The dal is fine, just a little burnt, and the curry..." Natasha had perked up beside you, looking hopeful at the optimistic descriptions of her dish.

You popped a potato from the pan into your mouth and struggled to swallow, eyes widening at the extreme overdose of salt and cardamon.

"Um... the aloo ghobi might be beyond saving. But that's okay, because guess what?" You turned to her triumphantly, smiling broadly at her.

"...What?" she asked carefully, eyes squinting.

"I wasn't expecting this, so I took the liberty of bringing takeout with me. And... it just so happens to be Indian curry. So we now have a ton of rice, but that should be fine."

Before you could even entirely finish your thought, she had wrapped her arms around your neck, laughing gently at the coincidental luck.

"That's pretty good, innit, love?" you cooed, brushing some hair behind her ear. "Now, why don't you sit down, I'll get that and my suitcase, yeah?"

She nodded enthusiastically, claiming one end of the sofa in the living room, already snatching a fuzzy blanket in readiness for the expected TV dinner.

You quickly stole your suitcase and the takeaway from the car and stowed the luggage away before salvaging the rice and dal from dismissed pots and pans.

"So," you drawled, setting the food down on the table before your girlfriend, "what's it gonna be, love?"

She licked her lips and reached for her plate, patting the spot beside her in encouragement for you to join her.

You slipped onto the couch as she hesitated, thinking, wrapping an arm around her waist as she leant into your side.

"What about an art-house film? Asteroid City is out now? Maya Hawke?" You nodded solemnly, already switching on the TV and searching for the right streaming service.

"Isn't that the one with that actress who looks a lot like you?"

"Ah yes, my evil twin," she chuckled, her mouth full of food. "Scarlett Johansson. That's her name."

"Oh, yeah," you sang, finding the movie and pressing 'play'.

"Are you okay?" you whispered, resting your hand on her abdomen as the credits began, along with a cheery tune, your fingers tracing intricate patterns on her smooth skin.

"Yeah, now that you're here. I think I was just... insecure," she murmured, swishing her fork amongst her next bite.

"Okay," you whispered back as the first scene approached, "you did great, y'know?"

"I'm so glad you're back."

"Me, too. I love you, hon'."

"I love you, too."

A car screeched to a halt on screen, demanding your attention, and you obeyed.

Natasha breathed in deeply, enjoying your warmth and loving feel.

You couldn't imagine anywhere you'd rather be instead of here, with your lover, the most beautiful woman you knew, lying in your arms.

Sweet & Sour Eggplant is a dish that features the unique flavours of sweet and tangy in a vegetarian delight. This dish features slices of eggplant, which are coated in a light batter and then fried until they achieve a crispy, golden-brown texture.

The "sweet and sour" flavour comes from the sauce which includes ingredients such as vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce. This sauce is infused with a blend of flavours, ranging from the sweetness of sugar to the tanginess of vinegar. It creates a contrast to the crispy eggplant, resulting in a saucy and slightly sweet coating that complements the eggplant's mild flavour.

Kashmiri Lal Mirch vs. Regular Red Chilli: What’s the Difference?

Introduction

When it comes to Indian cuisine, spices play a crucial role in defining flavors, heat, and color. Among them, red chilies are a staple, with Kashmiri Lal Mirch and regular red chilli being two popular choices. But are they the same? Do they serve different purposes in cooking? Understanding the differences can help you choose the right one for your dish. Let’s break it down!

Kashmiri Lal Mirch: Mild Heat, Vibrant Color

Kashmiri Lal Mirch is widely loved for its deep red hue and subtle spiciness. It is often used in Indian and Mughlai dishes to enhance color without making the dish too hot. Here’s why Kashmiri Lal Mirch stands out:

It has a mild spice level, with a Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) of around 1,000–2,000, providing just a hint of warmth.

The bright red pigment adds an attractive look to curries, tandoori dishes, and marinades.

It is perfect for gravy-based dishes like butter chicken, Rogan Josh, and dals.

Available in whole or powdered form, it blends well in spice mixes and masalas.

Regular Red Chilli: Bold Spice, Intense Flavor

Regular red chillies, also known as Guntur, Byadgi, or Teja chillies (depending on the variety), pack a more intense heat punch. These are ideal when you want a fiery kick in your dish.

They have a higher spice level, with SHU varying between 10,000–50,000, making them much hotter than Kashmiri Lal Mirch.

The sharp, pungent flavor lingers on the palate, making them perfect for heat lovers.

Best suited for spicy curries, dry masalas, and Andhra-style dishes.

Used in pickles, chutneys, and other fiery recipes that demand bold flavors.

Conclusion

Choosing between Kashmiri Lal Mirch and regular red chilli depends on your cooking needs. If you want a mild spice with vibrant color, Kashmiri Lal Mirch is your best bet. However, if you love bold, fiery flavors, regular red chillies will bring the heat. Both have their unique strengths, so experiment and find what works best for your dishes.

Garam Masala: The Heart of Indian Cooking

Introduction: The Essence of Indian Spices

Indian cuisine is a symphony of spices, each playing a crucial role in creating its signature flavors. At the core of this aromatic blend lies garam masala, a spice mix that has been a staple in Indian kitchens for generations. From North Indian curries to South Indian delicacies, garam masala adds depth, warmth, and complexity to dishes, making it an indispensable ingredient.

What is Garam Masala?

The term "garam masala" translates to "hot spice mix", not because it is spicy but due to its warming properties. It is a blend of carefully selected spices that are roasted, ground, and combined to create a fragrant powder that enhances the taste of various dishes. The composition of garam masala varies across regions, but some of the most commonly used ingredients include:

Coriander seeds – Adds citrusy undertones

Cumin seeds – Enhances earthiness

Cardamom – Imparts a sweet aroma

Cinnamon – Provides warmth and mild sweetness

Cloves – Adds a pungent depth

Black pepper – Introduces a subtle heat

Nutmeg – Brings in a hint of sweetness

Why is Garam Masala Important in Cooking?

Garam masala is more than just a seasoning. It is a carefully balanced blend of spices that:

Enhances flavors – Elevates the taste of curries, dals, and stir-fried dishes

Boosts digestion – Contains spices known for aiding digestion and metabolism

Adds aroma – A single pinch can transform an ordinary dish into a flavorful masterpiece

Brings warmth – Perfect for colder months, as its spices generate internal heat

Best Ways to Use Garam Masala

While garam masala is a versatile spice, knowing when and how to use it can make all the difference:

At the end of cooking: To retain its aroma and full flavor, garam masala is best sprinkled towards the end of the cooking process.

In marinades: Mixing it with yogurt, garlic, and ginger creates a flavorful marinade for meats and vegetables.

In soups and dals: A dash of garam masala can elevate a simple lentil soup or dal into a rich, aromatic dish.

In dry vegetable dishes: Stir-fried or roasted vegetables taste better with a light sprinkle of garam masala.

Final Thoughts

Garam masala is more than just a spice blend; it is an essential component of Indian cuisine that brings warmth and complexity to every dish. Whether you are making a classic dal, a rich curry, or a simple vegetable stir-fry, this spice mix will take your cooking to the next level.

What drinks pair well with Indian food at a restaurant?

When dining at an Indian restaurant in Australia, choosing the right drink can elevate your culinary experience. Indian cuisine is rich in spices, bold flavours, and diverse textures, making drink pairings essential for balance and refreshment.

Wine Pairings

Aromatic white wines like Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc complement spicy dishes, as their crisp acidity and subtle sweetness cool the heat. For those who prefer red, a light-bodied Pinot Noir pairs well with tandoori dishes, while a Shiraz enhances rich curries.

Beer Options

Indian lagers such as Kingfisher or Taj Mahal are perfect for balancing spice. Alternatively, a crisp pale ale or wheat beer can provide a refreshing contrast to bold curries and fried snacks.

Classic Indian Drinks

Traditional beverages like lassi, a yoghurt-based drink, soothe the palate and are perfect alongside spicy meals. Mango lassi is a favourite for its creamy texture and subtle sweetness. Masala chai, a spiced Indian tea, pairs well with desserts or mild curries.

Cocktail Choices

Cocktails with citrus and herbal notes, such as a gin and tonic or a mojito, cut through the richness of Indian dishes.

For the best experience, explore drink options at your favourite Indian restaurant and find your perfect match.

Kitchen King Masala vs. Chicken Masala: Which One Works Best for Meat Dishes

When it comes to cooking meat dishes, the right seasoning can elevate the flavours and transform your meal. Two of the most popular spice blends used in Indian kitchens are Kitchen King Masala and Chicken Masala. Both are essential in creating the perfect meat dish, but how do they compare, and which one is best for your next meat curry or chicken recipe? Let’s delve into the differences between these two spice mixes to help you decide.

What is Kitchen King Masala?

Kitchen King Masala is a versatile Indian spice mix for meat that combines a variety of spices, including cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, and cardamom. This robust blend is designed to enhance the flavour of a wide range of dishes, making it perfect for masala for meat curries. It’s commonly used in vegetarian curries, meat-based dishes, and even in some rice preparations.

One of the standout features of Kitchen King Masala is its balanced flavour profile. It offers a warming and mildly spicy kick that can be used to season various types of meat, including lamb, goat, and beef. Its universal appeal makes it a favourite choice when you want a masala for chicken and meat that isn’t overly specialised.

What is Chicken Masala?

On the other hand, Chicken Masala is a more specialised spice blend for chicken. As the name suggests, it’s particularly crafted to complement chicken recipes, offering a deeper, more intense flavour profile tailored for poultry. This blend typically contains ingredients like garam masala, red chilli powder, cumin, coriander, cardamom, cinnamon, cassia, cloves, and sometimes dried fenugreek leaves, all of which work together to enhance the flavour for chicken recipes.

Chicken Masala tends to have a sharper, more tangy flavour, which perfectly balances the mild taste of chicken. Whether you’re making a rich chicken curry or a spicy tandoori chicken, Chicken Masala is often the go-to choice for dishes where the focus is on bringing out the best in poultry.

Kitchen King Masala vs. Chicken Masala: A Masala Comparison

While both spice blends are excellent for meat dish seasoning, they have distinct differences that can influence the final outcome of your dish.

1. Versatility: If you’re looking for a masala for meat curries that works well with various meats, Kitchen King Masala is the better choice. Its mild, balanced flavours make it suitable for lamb, beef, and chicken alike. Chicken Masala, on the other hand, is more specifically designed for chicken, making it ideal for those who want to focus on poultry dishes.

2. Flavour Profile: Chicken Masala tends to have a more pronounced, sharp taste, which complements the flavour of chicken beautifully. Kitchen King Masala, by comparison, offers a gentler, more rounded flavour that’s ideal when you want to create a masala for chicken and meat that doesn’t overpower the natural taste of the protein.

3. Use in Indian Cooking Spices: Kitchen King Masala is a go-to in many Indian households when cooking a variety of dishes, from meats to vegetables. It can be added to Indian cooking spices in any number of ways. Chicken Masala, however, is often used in more specialised dishes like butter chicken, chicken tikka, and chicken curry, where the focus is on bringing out the tender, juicy qualities of chicken.

Which One Works Best for Meat Dishes?

Ultimately, the best masala for your meat dishes depends on the type of dish you’re preparing and your personal flavour preferences.

For a versatile, all-purpose spice mix that can be used across different types of meat, Kitchen King Masala is the superior option. It’s perfect for making meat curries with lamb, beef, goat, or even chicken.

For a rich, intense chicken dish, such as a chicken curry or tandoori chicken, Chicken Masala is the better choice. Its specially curated flavours are designed to enhance the taste of poultry, ensuring your chicken dishes shine.

Conclusion

When comparing Kitchen King Masala vs. Chicken Masala, both offer unique advantages depending on your cooking needs. Whether you need a masala for chicken and meat or a more versatile option for a variety of meats, both spice blends can help you create a delicious, flavour-packed dish. Experimenting with these blends will allow you to tailor your Indian spice mix for meat to suit the flavours you love most, ensuring every meal is a memorable one.
