Sometimes it is so hard to get my family together. I am usually the one that organizes events or activities for everyone to do. We all love each other a ton, and get along marvelously, but they just don’t ever think to plan things out. Well, luckily for them, I am always up to plan a get together, otherwise we may never see each other.
Sometime last week my sister and I talked about cooking together. She hardly ever cooks, and has never, ever tried to cook Indian food. We planned a date, and figured we better get the family over to help eat it all.
We cooked all sorts of food, the usual dal I make, some spiced okra, a broccoli and spinach puree, a rice pilaf. My sister found a recipe for some chickpea flour and cardamom brownies, which was her main dish for the night. I taught her a lot about the spices, and I think she really enjoyed cooking, and now realizes how easy Indian food can be. Everything was so amazing, by the time we were done cooking we were starving and way to hot to snap any clear pictures of the food.
After dinner we all moved the party outside, where my dad was lucky enough to snap a group photo before my sister passed out in the grass.
