Did you know..

Do you know whats the significance about October 16th?? there are two special occasions to celebrate on this day.

First one is 'World Bread Day' - which stands for solidarity and also for our ability to share. Bread also symbolizes Power! Zorra is organizing an event to celebrate this day, where the theme is open - one can bake any kind of bread or can just get store bought bread from their favorite bakery & blog about it! Click here (or the image) for more event details.

3rd World Bread Day hosted by 1x umruehren bitte aka kochtopf

Second is , a little unknown is 'National Boss Day'! Yes, you heard it correct, Boss Day. - a day to thank your boss for being so sweet and kind towards you all through the year. Isn't it interesting! I am planning to make something yummy for my boss, who has been a great source of strength during my hard times at work. Do you wanna make some too??

Then cook up a recipe (or) just blog about your experiences, on or before October 16th 2008 and send your post URL to me at: info(dot)siri(at)gmail(dot)com....I will do a roundup in the last week of October!!









Have a great Wednesday ahead folks!

Cheers,

Garlic Home Fries

As promised in my previous post, this is what I made yesterday as a part of my Sunday brunch! I got to know about these - Garlic Home Fries at my friends birthday party. They tasted sinfully tasty and were an instant hit!

...I have never used 'dried parsley' before and its a bit stronger than the fresh one. Nevertheless, the aroma of these was simply yummy and will make this again for sure!


Off this goes to WYF: Party Food hosted by lovely EC of Simple Indian Food.

Here is the recipe...

Garlic Home Fries topped with Cheese

Ingredients:

3 large Potatoes, sliced
1 tsp Olive oil, to drizzle
1/2 cup Mixed Cheese

For Garlic Sauce:

2 large Garlic cloves, finely mince
1/4 cup Olive Oil
1-2 tbsp Cornstarch
2 tsp dried Parsley, finely chopped
Lemon juice for taste
Salt
Water, if needed

Preparation:

Step 1: Preheat oven for 400 F. Place the sliced potatoes on a baking sheet and evenly drizzle some olive oil over them. Bake for 20-22 minutes, until they soft and golden brown.

Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk in the ingredients listed for 'Garlic Sauce' and keep aside. Transfer the baked fries into a mixing bowl and stir in the garlic sauce. Set aside for 5 minutes, to blend in the flavors.


Step 3: Now, in a small baking dish, spread a layer of garlic fries and top with some mixed cheese. Bake until the cheese melts.


Serve hot!


Enjoi!
