After much deliberation, battery-charging, camera-tweaking, bending, hemming and hawing, I finally have the entry for Click.
I bought some dried cherry chillies from the wet market last weekend. Or what I thought were dried cherry chillies. They were actually dried red dates! Ah well, as long as they are red, it works. And maybe I can come up with some nice chutney or dip with them, who knows.
As I did last weekend, I took close to 15o pictures today and finally have my entry. I am so happy I can finally think of food without wondering what colour it is. Phew.
Hot & Sweet – My Click-Red Entry

Now tell me. If these were in a transparent, unlabelled packet in a shop selling vegetables, wouldn’t you have thought they are dried cherry chillies too? There you go!

You are so sweet! I’ll look for asafetida in Salt Lake and if I can’t find it, I’ll write to you and ask you to send it. But I think I can find it here if I go to the Indian Market. Can’t wait to try it!
