Shrimp Poha






We had just started construction on our dining room doors. Pat was here. Scott dropped Shu over to see us. He had just flown in from Bangladesh. We were happy to see him and hear his stories of his time back home.

He actually joined us for our Hindi Class! We had planned a meal for Pat, and ourselves but decided to also invite Shu.

We then decided to change the menu and make Shrimp Poha. We really like this Indian dish. We have made it before and you can find the recipe on our blog of: Dec. 18, 2011. Click the date to get the recipe. Cathy and I scrambled to go to the Indian Market to buy Poha and then to buy the Shrimp. It is a delicious dish. We really liked it!

We invited Tim to join us for dinner, since he hadn’t seen Shu for quite awhile.

We started with Mushroom Soup. It is from the Balthazar Cookbook. This is a great soup. You can find the recipe in our blog of: April 4, 2012. Click the date to get the recipe.

As the dinner hour arrived and there was no sign of Shu, we asked Tim to stop by Shu’s house on his way here. Sure enough, Shu had fallen asleep from Jetlag. Tim roused him and they made it to the dinner.

The final course was a Blackberry Cheese Cake from Proof Bakery. Wow, it was very rich!

I stumbled across your blog when searching for a picture of the Shrimp Poha Paella that I just made. I really enjoy Suvir Saran's cookbooks, and it was fun to see all the other recipes that you are cooking as well. I also enjoy Bollywood movies. DDLJ and Devdas, and some of the others you listed, but my all time fave is Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Best to you, and look forward to seeing more chronicles of your meals... :)
