Food Issues

I must be honest...I entered India with a mini supermarket---only a few items..tuna in all its varieties, and granola bars of all persuasions!! Because in my mind, and based on all the well-meaning advice I'd been given, I would "not find much that [I ]could eat," and I'd "get sick eating too much Indian food."

Well let me tell you....I have not for a long time eaten such delicious, tantalizing, delectable cuisine!!! To-die-for! I'm hooked!  I LOVE SOUTHERN INDIAN FOOD!!

Biryani, Masala Dosa, Gulab Jamun..Fish..chicken..and on and on! Dishes too numerous to mention..I'm sold people..hook, line, and sinker:)  So I bought two cookbooks...gonna have to get my chef--for real--I have a personal chef-Don Brown-that's my husband:)--gonna have to get him to delve into some of these recipes---he cannot eat cumin, and Indian food is laced with this spice.

Take a look at some of what I was into


 Choosing our own fish.

 An evening out for Goan cuisine with Team India including Emily on the right (from IREX) and Robyn
 Here's the fish prepared.

 What's left of all the sweets
 My ultimate favorite--Biryani:)


 You need something to cool your tongue off after eating that crisp little roll (next to the stainless steel cup) on the Kevin's plate...SPICY!!

 Me-enjoying myself, "stepping" into this food trial a bit at a time.
