Yummy looking isn't it. Taste real good with butter Chapatti.

Recipe will be updated soon.

The Recipes:

This is a Onion Based Gravy.
4 medium sized onions for 1 kilo chicken.
More onions and the dish will be sweetish. Go ahead if you want your chicken sweet :)


For the garnish:

Add 1 tsp Dhania Powder
Add 1 tsp Jeera Powder.
Add 1 tsp Chilli Powder.
Add half tsp haldi Powder.
Add 1 tsp garlic Crushed.
Add 1 tsp ginger Crushed.
Salt to taste.
1 tsp vegetable Oil.
Mix well and keep in fridge or outside for 2 hours.

4 Onions finely chopped Keep Aside.

Heat Oil in a Wok. I always cook my chicken in a Wok or Kadhai.
The bottom of the cooking vessel has to be thick so that heat distributes evenly.

I use about 3 TBS vegetable oil. Should be enough.
A trick to cook in less oil. Only fry 1/3rd of the onions. Put the rest later.

Crackle 1 tsp jeera and mustard seed in the oil.
Add about one onions portion from the chopped onions and fry till golden brown.

Add 5 green chillis sliced in halves.
Fry for 30 seconds in medium heat.
Add rest of the onions and fry for couple of minutes.
Increase the heat.

Add the chicken and Quickly mix.
Let it mix well. Stir well, such that all the chicken pieces are turned.

Cover the vessel and cook for 15 minutes in low heat.

Now open the lid, and increase heat.
Add 2 tomatoes finely chopped(Optional).
Cook till most of all the juice from the curry have evaporated.
Keep Stirring/mixing.
Add 1 tsp of off-the-shelf Chicken masala.
Cook for couple of minutes after you add masala.

Garnish with coriander for better smell.
I didn't.. Ran out of coriander :)
Bachelor's kitchen you see!!

Bye-bye to high calories snacks at school

Good news for hundreds of parents of elementary and middle school kids. Congressman have asked the Institute of Medicine to to recommend new standards for school snacks and foods that sharply would limit calories, fat and sugar. This means that schools would have to offer healthier foods including those that are sold in the vending machines.

The new foods will include:

Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nonfat or low-fat dairy among others

Negative Calories Foods

What are negative calories foods? Well, those are the type of foods that instead of adding calories to your budy, it actually helps you substracting calories and thus help you to lose weight. In order for your body to process foods, it needs at least 100 kcal to digest your food. Some fruits such as apple, cranberries, orange and mango are considered negative calories foods or what is most often known as "wonder foods".

Healthy kids in Florida

According to the Sun-Sentinel, lawmakers are persuading a bill in which schools will be required to offer physical education or PE every day. I think it would be very beneficial for children to learn the importance of practicing a sport and to become good at it, since we have seen little kids suffering from diabetis and other health related problems such as obesity, to the lack of exercise and healthy eating habits.

Steve's expresso = Unhealthy FAU's coffee shop

Like most of the students at FAU, we rely on the little cafeteria that FAU's Fort Lauderdale campus has. To my misfortune, Steve's Expresso only sell high calorie foods, like pizza, hamburgers, and sandwiches. But, I found an interesting way of saving calories. First, if you like wraps or sandwiches, try to get whole wheat bread or wraps, the difference between whole wheat and white bread is 62 kcal. If you like cheese I suggest you to have an American cheese which contains 369 Kcal less than the Provolone cheese, same when deciding whether to buy a diet soda versus the regular.

For snacks, I highly suggest you to eat an apple which contains 70 Kcal, this fruit is actually a negative calorie food, this means that instead of adding calories to your body it actually helps you lose some.
