Mutton Doin': Kheema Pav

"It's far more interestingly seasoned than a Midwestern Sloppy Joe. with a whiplash of flavors between the cool herbs and warm spices that kept me interested without fatiguing my palate." Mutton Doin': Kheema Pav

Kheema, or often keema, is a word for minced meat derived from Turkic languages. Variations of the word exists in Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu, likely coming to those languages via the Persian qeema. At an Indian meat market recently, I bought minced goat that was labeled as mutton keema–the word seems to be commonly used simply to refer to minced meat. But Kheema also refers to a dish, or perhaps a…

Khandeshi Cuisine and Matrimonial Feasts: A Gastronomic Journey through Khandeshi Weddings

Khandeshi weddings are not only a celebration of love and union but also a gastronomic journey that showcases the rich and diverse cuisine of the Khandesh region in Maharashtra, India. These matrimonial feasts are a testament to the culinary traditions and flavors that define Khandeshi culture.

The Khandeshi cuisine, renowned for its bold and spicy flavors, takes center stage during wedding celebrations. The traditional wedding feast, often served on banana leaves or large plates, features an array of mouthwatering dishes that cater to a variety of tastes and preferences.

One of the highlights of Khandeshi cuisine is the use of spices, particularly in gravies and curries. Dishes like "Misal Pav," "Vangi Bhath," and "Puran Poli" are known for their robust flavors, thanks to a blend of aromatic spices and herbs. The extensive use of ingredients like sesame seeds, peanuts, and coconut also adds depth and texture to the dishes.

The lavish spread typically includes both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options to accommodate the diverse dietary preferences of guests. For meat lovers, dishes like "Mutton Sukka," "Kheema," and "Tambda Rassa" (spicy red curry) are popular choices. Vegetarians can relish dishes like "Bharli Vangi" (stuffed brinjals), "Zunka Bhakar," and "Sabudana Khichdi."

Another standout element of Khandeshi cuisine is the use of locally sourced ingredients, often cultivated in the region. Fresh vegetables, grains, and lentils are a staple, and their quality and flavor are unmatched. This emphasis on locally sourced produce adds authenticity and uniqueness to Khandeshi dishes.

The matrimonial feast also includes an assortment of sweets and desserts that cater to the sweet tooth of guests. Traditional sweets like "Puran Poli," "Shrikhand," and "Modak" are served to round off the meal on a sweet note.

In essence, Khandeshi cuisine and matrimonial feasts are a culinary journey that reflects the vibrant cultural heritage of the region. These flavorsome dishes not only tantalize the taste buds but also serve as a testament to the warmth and hospitality of Khandeshi weddings, where food becomes a means of celebrating love, togetherness, and tradition.

HUZZAH! (or ‘Jai ho!’) Another night w/o meat.

Missing the incomparable Chai Pani ‘Sloppy Jai’ while they renovate, and since I wanted a meatless version, I made a stab at it.  A slightly aromatic, warm savory ground ‘meat’ in tomato sauce.  Served with toasted ‘buttered’ buns or toast sticks, minced red onion, banana peppers and cilantro. I’m thinking some of the Tofutti sour cream on top.  Really, turned out pretty reminiscent of their lamb version. 

1/2 red onion &1 zucchini, minced Tbsp garlic tsp ginger & cumin pinch or two of garam masala 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, chipotle powder salt, black pepper 1/2 tsp maple syrup 1/2 tsp lemon juice /2-3/4 cup TVP (prepared with bit of fennel and Italian spices) a small can of tomato paste and water to dilute.

More heat is usually better. Temper and brighten with slight drips of maple which you counteract with lemon. Easy does it.

Chai Pani is a wonderful place, super fun. We’re going tonight!

Parsi tari Aarsi

“Doctor, chal carrom ramva jaiyye” (Doctor, c’mon let us play carrom)…

I grew up in Agripada in Mumbai – it had a cosmopolitan neighbourhood, largely a quiet area adjacent to the chirpy/busy area of Madanpura and Sankli Street. While most of the buildings had people from all castes/traditions living in them, there was this distinct colony which belonged to the sweetest people on earth – the Parsis!

The Murzban Parsi colony had 2 entrances – one from the main road opposite Nair Hospital and one at the backroad – must have had some 20 building inside the colony from end-to-end. I did not have any friends in that colony, but we were fascinated by it since a lot of Ads were being shot in that colony and having seen those ads on TV, we too wanted to visit that colony.

Didn’t have any Parsi friends in School…

My first and best friends in college were Parsis (they were Twins!)…

My first crush in college was a Parsi (oops, is wifey reading this!? 😊) – still remember that face!

My first friend in the corporate world was a Parsi…

My love for food, perhaps stems from the time I have been eating at their homes, their weddings, their navjots – lagan nu bhonu, Sali boti, dhansak, kheema pav, that limbu nu sharbat, lagan nu custard…aha!

My love for Carrom was deepened with the days I have spent playing carrom in their colonies (at Tardeo)– those old/classic buildings had some of the most functional activity area(s)…

Their love for simplicity – in the way they would dress, in the way they would stay, in their charming old ways, they have that distinct simplicity/authenticity that has stayed…

The flair in their language and their curse words – even if they would be giving you the choicest of swear words, you would still not feel bad – rehvade gadhera!

There are only a handful of them remaining now and on their New Year’s Day, remembering some of the best times I have spent with Parsis – Navroz Mubarak!

Arrey maari Patra ni Macchi kya che, Doctor! (where is my steamed fish (cooked in banana leaf), Doctor?)

Wonder who is this, Doctor?

Well, these are my twin Parsi friends – their surname is Doctor!

Who says ragda pattice, Malvani kheema cutlets and pav bhaji, don’t lend themselves to a glass of finely matched wine? Ask French culinary writer Laurent Moujon and he will tell you just how well one can really hone in on a wine that will hold up to every Indian flavour from the streets to the high street. “Wine serves one main purpose: to simply make the dish sublime. Not disturb, not crowd, not…

Misal Pav on my mind

“Hey, can I order some Misal Pav for breakfast? | No, don’t!”

 On Sunday, we had plans to visit my sister in the morning – we were planning to lave by 10AM or so and spend the entire day at her place.

 I had run out of CNG the previous night and hence decided to wake-up early to refill CNG. I was out by 7:30AM to visit this CNG station at BKC. This station is a CNG only station and it usually takes me 15 to 20 minutes to get in and get out.

 While leaving from home, I was thinking if I could either get something for breakfast or order something – I had 2 things on my mind: first one was “Fried Kheema (w/ Pav)” and the second one was “Misal Pav”. From home to the CNG station, I was still deciding which one to order.

 In the cue, I finally decided that Misal Pav is what I want for breakfast. But, before I ordered, I made a call to wifey to confirm. Her response was “we have eaten Pav Bhaji just yesterday, and again today you want to have Pav (w/ Misal). I will make an Omelette for breakfast, you please come home”.

 I kept moving ahead in the cue, but I was slightly disappointed that I was not going to get Misal Pav for breakfast. I refilled CNG and then went to the nearby petrol station too to fill-up some petrol as well. Whilst driving back home, I was still thinking of the Misal Pav!

 I reached home by 8:15AM or so and was prepared to have an omelette for breakfast – kept the car keys in the drawer and went to the kitchen to help set-up the breakfast table. The omelette was getting fried (like my mind) and I picked up something to put it on the breakfast table (while I call it a table, all our meals are sit-down and we always eat together in one big thaal (plate)).

 As soon as I reached Dad’s room (where we usually have our breakfast), I saw one container and some Pav kept on top of it. I instantly knew it was “Misal Pav” prepared by my sister-in-law (who stays in the same building) – it bought a smile on my face (and my tummy too). My sister-in-law keeps preparing Misal quite often and then she shares it with us too (in that same container). I had both Misal Pav and the omelette for breakfast – a perfect start to a Sunday!

 It just made me think “if you really want something and wish for it, it will surely come to you (if it is meant for you) by any/all means!”.

 Have a wishful week ahead!
