I know it has been a long time since I blogged, but better
late than never. I had exams and the excuse list is long. Back to the post
Now I have hit the kitchen a couple of times and I created
things like rice, sandwiches, and noodles. But making something intricate like poha
(Indian dish), which is eaten for breakfast, is truly a feather in the cap.
My grade 9 is over and I am promoted to grade 10. I
have holidays till the March 1st, so I thought of trying hand in something
intriguing like cooking. I was not expecting success quickly and I knew that
cooking was an art, which requires some mastery. Nevertheless I thought of
making our family’s favorite food- poha. I have never made poha before so I
thought my poha would be a complete disaster.
However, when I started making poha I found it a seemingly
easy task. After I was done, the poha smelled and looked good. I was ready to
wave a green flag then the old quote popped in – “Don’t judge a book by its
cover”.
Then it was the time for tasting the dish. My heart was
racing; do I hit the kitchen again or the spices were a problem? We all tasted
the dish and the taste was remarkable. I was overjoyed. Now this gave me a lot
of confidence in cooking and have I found a new hobby??
Hoping to cook again and have a lot of fun.
Cooking is at once child's play and adult joy
