Crab Dynamite and Kashmera Cooks










We invited Robert / Darryl and Tim over for dinner. Kashmera cooked two great Indian dishes for us. She started with a Bombay Street Food: Sevpuri. It is served on little crackers and with a vegetable topping. Tamarind water is poured over it with a spicy sauce and finally topped with sev which is a grated graham cracker. It is very tasty. Because she made the it from her head, I don’t have a recipe. But here is one: Sevpuri.

She then made Fried Shrimp (sorry Bea). They were exceptionally crispy and spicy. The trick is she used rice flour. They were both delicious. It was great of her to cook for us, and she had fun doing it!

We started with a Smoked Salmon Salad. We purchased the salmon at the Hollywood Farmer’s Market.

By request (from Kash) we made Crab with Dynamite Sauce. The sauce is terrific but it MUST be made with Japanese Mayo. We started with a recipe that we found on The Fine Lobster Blog called: Creamy Spicy Lobster: a twist on a Nobu Classic. Everyone loves it! We served Japanese Rice with it. We purchased excellent  canned Lump Crab meat from McCall's Meat and Fish. Everyone and I mean everyone loves it! The recipe can be found on our blog of: Sep. 5, 2010.

Darryl and Robert brought dessert. It was fabulous. It was Baked Apples from a recipe by Suzanne Goin in The Sunday Supper at Lucques Cookbook. They were fantastic. We have never had them before. We look forward to making them!
