Kashmira and Shumon decided to cook a 2nd Indian Dinner for us. What a team they make. Bobby, Darryl and Robert’s niece Margaret joined us for dinner. Michael and Brett also joined. It was a real extravaganza and once again the weather cooperated by being extremely warm. Everyone who has been to Mumbai loves the smell of the street food served everywhere. We have our taco trucks they have their street food vendors.

We are always reluctant to eat street food when we travel abroad for fear of Delhi Belly. Street food came to Silverlake!
Kashmera made both Pani Puri and Sev Puri. Pani means water in Hindi. You start with small balls of a very thin pastry like shell. With your finger you punch a hole in the top and then place various ingredients inside the pastry shell and finally top with some flavored water. One bite and it done. They are very delicious. Sev Puri is served on a flat cracker. It can be topped with many different ingredients that Sev (a thin crunchy noodle). Everyone enjoyed making and eating them.

We had Rice and Dal that Shumon made. Kashmera made Gobi Aloo, one of my favorite dishes (Potatoes and Cauliflower). Kash and Shumon also made Raita.

We loved having the excellent homemade Indian Food.
