Fusion Food Fun


Last night, I decided to "work off the grid" so to speak in terms of making dinner.  I decided to peek around with what was on hand and to make something "new" and different.  The end result was what I call "Indian Lasagna"

I used the following:

package of lasagna noodles
spinach
garbanzo beans
kidney beans
tomato sauce
curry powder
cardamom
tumeric
capers
pepper
paprika
garlic
mozzarella cheese
cheddar cheese
pepper

Basically I took the tomato sauce, infused in the curry powder, cardamom, turmeric, capers, paprika and garlic, then thickened it and layered it between several layers of lasagna noodles, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, and spinach... and added the various cheeses throughout.  It was topped with mozzarella cheese and baked until golden brown. 

I also made a "Indian style Garlic Bread" as well, which was a whole grain bread topped with a garlic butter infused with Garam masala.  We had salad and vegetable with it as well. 

We all enjoyed it!  The picture above is NOT my lasagna, but it looked very similar, although a bit more "Indian spices - orange".

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
