Gits Products

By
Since we do not have a grinder and i have already spoiled 2 blenders trying to make the dosa and vada batter, i decided to try out the ready mixes at least until we get a grinder.

We tried out several mixes from the Gits brand and i am quite happy with most of them. The best part about these mixes is that one does not need to soak the lentils overnight and then grind them and leave it out to ferment which means a lot of planning ahead ! The Gits mixes allows one to spontaneously decide on having dosa, idli or vada at the spur of the moment.

1) We tried out the uttappam mix and it came out pretty good. One just needs to add onion, tomatoes, green chillies and coriander leaves. It would be something that i buy again

2) We got a small pack of the upma mix free with the rava idli mix and it was quite good. However, since upma is easy to make i do not think that buying the mix makes that much of a difference.

3) We also tried the rava idli mix and that is our favorite. It turns out just awesome and we have bought several packs of this so far. I would definitely recommend it.

4) Medu Vadai mix - Since my husband loves vadas, we took this mix and i was very happy with the results. Definitely worth buying!

5)Idli mix - this is one mix that i am not too happy with the results. They are times when the idli tastes a little lumpy and you really dont get the taste of idli. It is just ok.

6) Dahi vada mix - I tried this mix out and loved the results. Another of my husbands favourites!

I probably should try out the other mixes that they have but certainly Gits is a very convenient option!

Coal-Fired Pizza!!!

By
Coal-Fired Pizza My kids love Pizza. My wife and I, on the other hand, have left our love for Pizza behind. But, with the kids in tow, I started researching how to make a decent pizza from scratch. YouTube is filled with recommendations, so I had to make some choices for my very first Pizza. If you're looking for a quick-cooking Pizza, this isn't the recipe for you. This will take around 2 days, including fermentation and some work. As usual, Kamado Grill Classic is again my go-to cooking platform. References: John Setzler's ' Kamodo Joe Pizza '.  John Kenall's ' Easy Pizza Dough Recipe '. Vito Lacopelli's ' How to Make Perfect Pizza Dough at Home'  and ' freeze the Pizza for later '. Goals: Everyone has so many variations for making Pizza dough. I never realized the debate of Biga vs Poolish  dough making. Before we get into all the details, I set some goals. Type : I wasn't going for Neapolitan-style, very high-heat Pizza. The t...

Mesquite smoked Tandoori Chicken on Kamodo Grill Classic 2

By
Smoked " Tandoori"  Chicken  It has been five years since we purchased the Kamado Joe Classic Joe Series II 18-inch Ceramic Charcoal Grill and Smoker with Cart . And it has been an excruciatingly long time since I last blogged. So, here we go with a delicious solution as I am cooking. Tandoori chicken on Kamodo Joe. I won't do the "pure version" of doing everything from scratch. Instead, a quick path to food you'd like to make again. This is a result of at least 3 experiments so far.. I may continue to enhance this post as I discover ways to improve it over time, assuming my interest in blogging remains. Cooking time: Marinade prep - 5-10 mins Marinade: 12 hours Grill prep: 1/2 hour Ensuring grill temp (230 F) is reached: 1/2 hour (will vary) Setting up chicken and temp probe: 10 mins Smoking the chicken: 30 mins to 2 hours (depends on flavor strength) - remote monitoring usually Final Searing: 10-20 mins Equipment List Kamodo Joe Classic II  - I will use t...
