Leftover South Indian restaurant food, Hummus - Tomato - Sprout Sandwich
I was supposed to attend a photography meeting and had to attend to a repair on my wife's car, so had less than an hour to eat (it turned out that the meeting started earlier than usual so I didn't go). My wife simply heated leftover South Indian food from last Thursday (lemon rice, spicy sambar soup [not shown in the picture], uttapam "Indian pizza", and pakora) and, when I came home from the repair, I added some raw vegetables and a simple hummus-tomato-mung bean sprout sandwich.My wife has some relatives from India visiting California and they flew in to s
ee us, but came to Charlotte, about 2 1/2 hours from here. By the time they got home, it was about quarter after two in the morning and they hadn't eaten, so I put together a quick meal for them. I sauteed some okra and orange bell pepper and, in the last half minute or so of cooking, added a little cumin. In parallel, I made some quinoa in vegan broth, along with turmeric, ginger powder, and smoke flavoring. I mixed the vegetables in, along with salt, home grown oregano, and paprika. I also pan roasted halved golden potatoes. I mixed in rosemary from my garden, salt, pepper, and a lemon marinade.

On Saturday, I made a rice dish with Brussels sprouts and tempeh; I'll have to try making this again. On Friday, our vegetarian society speaker, Will Tuttle, his wife, and my wife and I ate at a South Indian restaurant, Udipi; I enjoyed a nice rava dosa. We again had South Indian food, this time from Tower Restaurant.

Hi Dilip, how have you been?
that sprout sandwich with hummus looks splendid!
Thanks, Trupti (new picture!). I've been okay but busy. I had a great meal of mushroom risotto planned for last night for my wife's relatives and us, but we were sightseeing and ended up using the time to eat out - a good meal but I missed making something for them. I'm glad I put together a quick meal the night (or should I say morning?!) before - simple as it was, they all were remarking how much they liked it! How have you been?
