Salaam.

It is. You got to prepare the leaves, make the gooey stuff, fill them, roll them, slice them, then fry them.

What about cutlets?

I have never heard of PONK or Neera? Ive heard of Neero...that drink dat comes out of trees:?

What is PONK does it PONG...sorry dat lame init..:hiding:
 
Salaam.

Ok Zak, is ponk ice lollies? When I was in India years ago, I remember something being called that. It's crushed ice, dipped in a flavour and mounted on a stick. Right?
 
Salaam.

Oh ok. But I'm sure those ice lollies are called something similar sounding.
 
I used to have kitchree n karee, but what is this other thing, tarkaaree? I can't stand it no more. There's also a variation of it called barkee I think, something like that anyway.

What about the small tiny samosa's we have? I don't know if it's a whole way Gujarati thing, but everyone around here loves our small somasa's. Oddly I like the big Pakistani ones instead.

tarkaaree is also known as hannu? Known as curry in english. erm... it's those dishes eaten with roti and rice..

mum makes barkee once in a blue moon. it's made with rice but you do something to it to make it all runny.. (sorry, i don't know)it is such an old dish that when it is made we all love it so much its gone in a second.:giggling:

we have tiny samosa's too!! :)
 
Salaam.

Yeah, kulfee. But they have some made with crushed ice too in India. Ponk or pung, something like that.

The best hannu with kichree was vhengru, and with papar too!
 
zAk;224329 n PONK.. is made off Jowaari... if u ever been to surat u may surely hv tasted it[/QUOTE said:
Oh yeah u mean Pawnk..the green stuff like little beads...yeh man dats nice with sev...u can only get it at season time..which i think is cold season..

In India i can remember my family arranged a big party called the "Pawnk party"

BTW does anyone know what raieran is?

lol rairan...my uncle was asking me what it is, i have no clue:?

BTW i think those ice things are caled POM POM...had loads of them when I went to India bout 20 years ago...heard u get on sticks nw.
 
:sl:
I didn't know about paunk, untill we were all invited to one in india at one of my cousins khetarr (farm). I was very much looking foward to it. I thought of really appetising food, but it turned out to be little green seeds. However it was really tasty, but not appetising.:)

Handha ka naheegya:?

Lol..I always say kharee kitchree but yeh ppl do say kitchree kharee..
Vhengru, man cant stand it....dunno what im having tonight..think it might be kheemo with some bhaji init.
 
Salaam.

Kheemo and bhaji is nice. But I must say, with white chaval and yoghurt, vhengru is nice.
 
Dont do anytime of vhengrus...but when im around my mates house who is bengali and dont what type of vhengrus they have but they taste so nice.
They say they just steam em and just put salt and some masala, really nice.
