ALTERNATIVE FOR COOKING

It is not that we find time to cook our food everyday, that is if you are staying alone in a place. And again, if you are a person who do not have a taste for fast foods, then its better to have an alternative arrangement. I have. I have put up some images....just in case.
N. B. You green gram sprouted and normal
Ginger and lemon when needed
See you later.

FOOTBALL CRAZY

This island nation is too crazy about one thing-football. Most of the islands I have visited, have a football field. The astonishing fact is that some of these islands are so small that the football field covers more than 1/4 of the island's total area.Bigger islands have more than one football fields. Only their mosques get a priority when it comes to using the area available in an island, but they do not cover as much area as a football field covers.
Adjacent to this floodlit football field th…

WHAT IS 'YOU'?

'Cook a dish' and 'What is you'! Ya, Its fine to ask once in a while in our lives like that? It sets something rolling-the seeking. Whatever you do, whoever you meet,wherever you seek, finally you end up realizing that you are what you gather from this soil, mainly through eating. Now, you eat something, a few hours later the thing you have taken in, will not be there but you will be, in its place. And for sure,this accumulated, or the body, will return to the place it was gathered from.
Just th…

THE APPETIZER

What makes this recipe unique?
Through experiences I have learnt that some foods do more than satisfying our hunger or giving strength to our muscles! They make us fly high! I mean it -in every sense of the phrase. You move with springs under your feet, not just due to the energy provided by the dish you have just taken but also by the pleasant thoughts and mannerisms emanate from you from nowhere, it seems! In short You feel on top of the world! I have felt it whenever I enjoyed such a dish lik…

FOOD AS MEDICINE

Holiday Dish
The mid-term holidays this year, coincides with the festival season here. Anyhow, during such holidays I venture into my trial and error method with my cooking. This time around, the target is the 'food medicine' or 'food treatment'. Not because There is any illness, instead, just as a precaution. Moreover, after a few weeks of continuous struggle between the teachers and the 'taught', the crucial dopamine level seems to be a bit down. At such a scenario, the above mentioned 'treatm…

TSUNAMI, MANGROVE AND THE MALDIVES.

The terrible tsunami that struck the Indian ocean Nations on that deadly night of December 6 2004,would have devastated the low lying islands (one to one and half meters above sea level) of the beautiful archipelago if there were not enough mangroves to protect them.
Maldivian islands are not home for huge sky scrapping trees. The biggest trees you will find here are Bread fruit trees, Bunyan trees, etc. Most of the vegetation here is the protective angels like mangroves.
The tiny islands which …

SNORKELING IN THE CORALS


During the days when I was eagerly waiting to travel to Maldives, one of my thoughts was to swim a lot in the beach waters. But in my island, when I reached the beach I realized that it was nothing like at all the silver sand stretches I had read and seen about , and again as I reluctantly slid into the waters, the clear turquoise nutrient -rich coral water I had dreamed of had turned into a filthy mess! Disappointed and disgusted I returned to my room.
The next day when I narrated the gap betw…

GOD OFF SMALL THINGS !

Unity In Diversity
India is an amazing country in many ways than one can think of. You will not tag me as a jingoist,if at least once you visit this place and try to understand a bit of it. It is A NATION with one name but many religions, thousands of languages and dialects, myriads of festivals, confusing cultures and seemingly ridiculous rituals and many more such things!
An Almighty For Each and Every Thing!
Today I would like you to just have a peep into the CULTURE of Gods in this wonderful…

BASHI-A DIFFERENT BALL GAME

The 'Bodu Eid' (or the 'Big Festival' is fast approaching. So the women folk of the island are busy practising the 'Bashi' for the Eid tournament. Eid-Ul-Adha, this year, falls on the first week of September. I caught up with them during my late evening stroll and clicked some snaps.
'Bashi" is an exclusively Maldivian game. Women play in teams in a place like a tennis court with tennis balls-for a change- plenty of them at a go. In this traditional sport, one woman from a team stands in the co…

SUMMER RAIN

Rain Drops, Showers And Then Pours
Nature does not need much of a preparation or time to do a somersault with its appearance, mood and the entire perspective. Last night the less fortunate who could not cool themselves with an a/c, felt as if they were on a sweltering furnace due to the hot and humid conditions. But, lo, Cometh the dawn and down pours the rain, settling everything in a matter of a few minutes!
Then there was no looking back and it is still drizzling as I am typing these lines fo…
