Hmmm, looks like Caryn does not want to try my recipes! 'Actually, I have no cause to complain, it is not as if I post a whole lot of recipes, anyway. 'All the same, I thought I would put in my two cents' worth.

Caryn, I was just kidding!

6 months' gap in going to the kitchen? I want to trade places with you. I did get a mini - break after my surgery, but I am back to my usual routine now, and so, here I am, envying you when you say that you went into the kitchen after 6 months! Some girls have all the luck!

I am going to have to look through the archives to dig up some new recipes for Thanksgiving, which we are going to celebrate later this month. Since ours is a veggie Thanksgiving, I have to look for recipes that are unusual. Maybe a pumpkin soup, if there is one in the archives. If not, I will find one, make it, and then post it.

Jazzie,

For your Baklava recipe, would you please approx..ly convert the gram measument to cups or tblspns? Me..a little handicapped with that..

eljay this is for you. pumpkin soup tastes wonderful and is a staple diet in any south african home. here is how i was taught to make it...tastes yum...

ingredients
1 pumpkin
1 tsp dried rosemary
1 tsp paprika

4. Remove the soup from the heat, and bring to room temperature. Once it has cooled sufficiently, puree using a standard household blender, an electric hand mixer or potato masher

5. Return the cooled puree to the kettle, stirring in one cup of cream. Add salt and pepper to taste. Place in refrigerator until thoroughly chilled.

Wow!! preparing yourself for Thanksgiving. Cool😎... very Americanised-Indianised. 🤣 Okay, not only you are going to list out your menus of what you did for Thanksgiving, but also the recipes. 😃 Periya vellai illeh?

Thanks Jas, for the grams to cups conversion. I have been looking for something like this for a long time, since my Samaithu par books are 30 years old, and some of the recipes have palams and viss in them(!!), and I have had to write a second book in the first book, with my own approximations in cups and tbsps.

Your pumpkin soup will be tested soon, maybe this weekend itself. i will let you know how it turns out.
