Come weekend and we konkanis can ONLY think of food. I wanted to cook something interesting today. Unfortunately, the only vegetable that we had in the fridge was carrot. Great! My mind worked overtime to think of a yummy recipe with carrot. I could imagine my kids going ewww, carrots! We had some frozen pizza. That would take care of the kids. But what about my dear konkani husband's palate? Good news. I had some cooking oil. What could I possibly make with oil and carrots? Aah! Carrot fritters. Yummy! I am not kidding. Try it! Crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. A perfect combination. I also made carrot "upkari" (konkani for steamed), cooked some rice and dal, fried some papad and had a sumptuous vegetarian lunch. So I thought, till my hubby reminded me that I had to go grocery shopping and we should try the new Italian restaurant for dinner. Got to go now. Carrots anybody? ;-)
