A Pound of Butter (Honesty)


There was a farmer who sold a pound of butter to a baker. One day the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting the right amount, which he wasn’t. Angry about this, he took the farmer to court.

The judge asked the farmer if he was using any measure to weight the butter. The farmer replied, “Honor, I am primitive. I don’t have a proper measure, but I do have a scale.”

The judge asked, “Then how do you weigh the butter?”

The farmer replied;

Your Honor, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him. Every day when the baker brings the bread, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the baker

Moral of the story:
In life, you get what you give. Don’t try and cheat others.

Galouti Kebab


Ingredients

  • 500 grams Mutton , minced
  • 3 teaspoon Papaya , paste
  • 2 teaspoon Cumin powder (Jeera)
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander Powder (Dhania)
  • 1 teaspoon Garam masala powder
  • 1 Onion , chopped
  • 2 teaspoon Ginger Garlic Paste
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper powder
  • 2 tablespoon Gram flour (besan)
  • Mint Leaves (Pudina) , a handful
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon juice ,  
  • Salt , to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Ghee 
  • Sunflower Oil , as required, to shallow fry

Directions for Mutton Galouti Kebab Recipe

  1. To begin making the Mutton Galouti Kebab, first take a big bowl and mix the minced mutton, lemon juice, papaya paste, ghee and salt in a bowl and keep it aside for 10 minutes.

  2. In a blender add rest of the ingredients one by one - onions, ginger garlic paste, gram flour, mint leaves, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala and black pepper powder. Blend it well with little or no water.

  3. Once all these ingredients have ground and combined well, add in the minced meat and blend well for second time until all ingredients combine well and is a smooth texture 

  4. Transfer it in a container with a lid and refrigerate overnight or for 8 hours. This helps in the mutton absorbing all the flavours of the spices. 

  5. Take out this mutton mixture from the fridge after 8 hours, and prepare patties and keep it ready on the plate.

  6. Heat a grilled iron pan with some oil to coat the surface. Place the Kebabs/patties and shallow fry on medium to low flame for about 10 on each side of the Kebab. Fry the remaining kebabs too and serve hot. 

  7. Serve Mutton Galouti Kebab along with Dhaniya Pudina Chutney.

PAN KULFI


INGREDIENTS

  • 1 liter vanilla ice cream store bought, preferably use kwality or vadilal
  • 8-10 large paan leaves finely chopped
  • 4 tablespoons gulkand also known as rose petal jam
  • 2 tablespoons canided fennel
  • 1.5 teaspoons mishri also known as sugar candy
  • 3-4 dates chopped
  • 1/8 teaspoon mint extract
  • few drops green food color optional
  • desiccated coconut for garnishing
  • cherries for garnishing

INSTRUCTIONS
 
Place your store bought vanilla ice cream on counter top for few minutes until it softens up and then transfer it to a large bowl. Whip the ice cream using a spatula.
Add chopped paan leaves, gulkand, candied fennel, mishri, chopped dates and mint extract. Also add few drops of green food color if you like.
Fold in everything together until well combined. Pour the ice cream back into the ice cream container/tub and freezer overnight.
Garnish the paan ice cream with coconut flakes and cherries and enjoy!

NOTES

Add only few drops of mint extract. Too much of the the extract and the ice cream will become very mint-y so be careful.
Gulkand might be all clumped together. If that's the case, make sure to break it up into small pieces before adding to the ice cream else you will get big chunks of gulkand at it won't be distributed well throughout. You may use your hands for doing this.
I have used egg-free Indian brand vanilla ice cream here.
