Dinner?

Hola!
Bienvenido a mi blog .. Derecho desde hace mucho tiempo ..

Oh, here I go again, since I'm writing this from Spain I kinda get konfused between Spanish and ingles. Grr.. I mean English :)

( BTW, the initial text, which you and I are sure is of no importance means:"Hello, welcome to my blog,. been long right?"
Okay, now you might think maybe it was a little important, so again:
Hi [:)] )

Pardon me for my really really long disappearance from blogosphere, I'd been a bit busy with my vacation from "Vetti Club" so I'm not quite the president at the moment. And well, my tech blog has been filling up with random entries for a change. And if you by any remotely-vague (or vaguely-remote or both or whichever is worse) chance want to read it, its here.

Well then, let me now begin to start telling you what I actually wanted to say. ( Oh, maybe I din't want to say anything specific and just wanted to ramble a bit.. but then, be nice and think I'm actually writing something [which probably is of course complete (non)sense] and force yourself to continue, I promise you a few nice pics(no no not mine, don't get scared and close the window ) if not anything else.

So, here now, we begin (yes in the middle) from the beginning.

And oh, before we get started, I should give you a little info on the circumstances under which I'm writing the blog, so that you won't kill me in the end if the dinner goes horribly wrong [:D]
Yeah, so because a lot of people thought I should attend a conference I'm right now in Gran Canary Islands, an island (D'oh) off Spain. And this place is one with a reputation for being an almost pure non-vegetarian cuisine. And since I happen to be a Vegetarian, I'm currently forced to cook at the moment for my survival in the islands. { Yeah I know I can live on the ice-creams here, but then they are too heavy for my leeetle pocket, and well I personally don't like heavy stuff due to my build as well (though ice-cream is certainly a good thing for it [:P] ) }

Cooking really has been fun and I've been enjoying it, and surprising my mom, as well.. er... um... She has to spoonfeed me at home, and out here I'm actually cooking!

But then I thought I could manage with these things :


And it turned out those things got over in a couple of days, so I had to actually cook a complete meal, with rice and vegetables and all that jazz.. And I was pretty lucky to survive my cooking and sane enough to write this post(Oh! din't I just contradict myself?)

Now, presenting, my recipe for a well if you insist on giving it a name, call it vegetable-rice.
Made with Rice, Potato, Onion, Tomato and Peas.
(Warning, this recipe takes about 2 days due to one ingredient, which will be explained a little late, so take care ;) )
So, now take the vegetables and cut them ( The Tomato has to be cut separately, preferably in a clean place/bowl ) Make sure, they look something like this:





The peas, are really peace things to have, the ones I used were already boiled :)



Now for the ingredient which takes two days, Boil rice two days prior to the dinner time and well keep them in the fridge, preferably at subzero temperatures. And then keep it out about 30 minutes before you start out on the endeavor so that it defreezes well.



And, here is one really really important ingredient, which decides whether someone eats the recipe or not, and behold...it is :



If you still don't get what it is, here's a hint [ Its NaCl + I2 + traces of a few minerals ]

Ready to cook now?
Start off with butter( if oil is not available that is) on the frying pan, and add the Potato + Onion mixture to it, and fry them till you think they look really similar ;)



After this, add the tomatoes, and mix well for a while,. This will take sometime, tomatoes have a lot of water content.



Now, go for the nice, defrozen rice.



Time for peas!



And now, after you've mixed things enough, add the salt!!

Finally,mix things well, and you end up with something like this:



It atleast looks palatable right? It sure was, and to my great surprise was actually good :D

I used to laugh and make fun of those tv shows which showed you how to cook and stuff, but here I'm blogging about it!

Well then, I'll keep you updated on more stuff, as I intend to blog a bit more often now on, take care, and until the next post, signing off :) [ And do try the the recipe! this unlike the previous post does not fall under the category of "Don't do this!" :P ]

P.S. As I'd mentioned way back, in the beginning of the post, I'm not responsble for anything bad that might happen as a result of following the instructions in this post and all of the cribs will be sent to /dev/null.
On the other hand, if you had a really nice experience with this, all I can say is "You're one heck of a lucky person [:D]"

Saludos!
