Lets see if the khichuri happens today or not. I got the frozen ginger paste out of the freezer and kept it outside.
Need to go out for sometime - milk and bread needed. Once I come, I will decide. And if the khichuri happens, I plan to spice it up. Egg curry, Beguni and Khichuri. Obviously will not taste the way Ma made this stuff, but I will try.
And for the house, I will tell my landlord tomorrow, that I will stay here. Atleast for another 6 months. Till I find something suitable.

Ok, So finally I did this. I chopped capsicum, radishes, bitter gourd and some rigged gourds. In a big kadhai, heated mustard oil I first added the bori and as usual had partially burnt boris. This was a batch of boris bought last weekend at Total Mall. Once the boris were brought out, in went capsicum, then the bitter gourd, radishes and the jhinga.
I let that fry for sometime, then added a pinch of salt and lowered the flame.
In a bowl, I had prepared a mixture of poppy paste, mustard paste and turmeric.
When water had come out of the veggies, and that water had partially dried out on low heat, I added this paste.
And the boris.
And some salt.
Then let it cook at low heat.
After 20 mins, added some fresh grated coconut in it.
This was my shukto. Because dad wanted karela and the other veggies were getting spoilt, this came by. It was good. Imagine a wok of 3 kgs of veggies, finished off literally. Very little left as left over.
And tonight I will see if I can finally make the khichuri.
