Spaghetti and Spinach Balls I first had this amazing pasta dish at Italia restaurant in Park Pod hotel, Chennai, India. Wanting to recreate the dish at home, I googled around to see if there were similar recipes. To my surprise I found a very similar recipe that is served at the famous Carluccios restaurant in UK! My recipe is inspired by Antonio Carluccios recipe for pasta with courgette sauce and spinach balls on BBC Food Not only is Antonio Carluccios recipe delicious, it also has a special story behind it.. Everytime someone orders this dish at Carluccios restaurant, 50p (about 75 cents) is donated on the diner’s behalf to the charity, Action Against Hunger. I made several changes to Carluccios recipe. Some tips: - Timing is important in this recipe because there are 3 elements to it – the pasta, pasta sauce, and spinach balls. - If you want to use fresh spinach, blanch it in boiling water and squeeze dry before using. - If your spinach mixture is too dry and wont form a ball, sprinkle a little water. For pasta
Lentil and Spinach Curry in a Hurry | kitchen demure I love curry and I’m perfectly willing to spend a lot of time toasting and grinding a dozen different spices and preparing several different dishes in order to enjoy a Indian extravaganza, but sometimes I want my curry fix a little faster and simpler. This curry is hardly any effort at all. It uses red lentils, which cook very quickly compared to regular lentils, and it uses your favorite ready made curry powder. I’m such a snob, I usually sniff at the ready ground premixed powders, but the truth is that there are some very good ones available that almost make the idea of making your own seem like a pretension. With school starting in the forseeable future (gasp! Lentil Spinach Curry in a Hurry Curry powders go stale very quickly, try to buy it in smaller amounts, particularly if you don’t use it very often. Serves 2 1 cup of red lentils 2 cups of water 1 small onion, chopped 1 clove of garlic, minced 1/2 tsp ginger, grated 2 tbsp of peanut or vegetable oil 2 tbsp tomato paste
