Yes. Wheat flour is much healthier than Maida. Maida is used for several dishes which are popular. But it needed much force to prepare maida than wheat flour.
I like bhature made from curd and maida.

Pri_dm

Even I love bhaturey hey neer check momo thread your dish is posted there I mean noodle pakoda

neer001

Sorry, I was in hurry, so I typed but didn't posted the thanks message.

Any way. Thanks.

I've prepared pakodas, and going to enjoy it . .

Pri_dm

you have already prepared pakodaas? I thought you are going to prepare now .. Well hopefully you did not soak maggi in water for more than 2-3 minutes if you soak it for longer time it becomes soggy and the pakodaas don't turn crispy...

neer001

Yes, I prepared as you told. my reply to the momo thread was typed half an hour earlier.. I was so hungry that I forgot to post it..

I had some Experience with Chowmin, so I soaked it for 2 min only. I have added little baking powder.

I have never tested noodles like this before. It tastes really good.

Pri_dm

Yes it does and doesn't even take much time to prepare ... BTW where's rep for me? Its my own creation :-P

neer001

Wow.. Yummy. Where are your hands..

I tried pakodas with both tomato sauce and green chilly chutney. with both it is Delicious.

From where you get these cooking ideas??? I really appreciate it..

Well 1st time I cooked was when I was just 5 years old. Mom taught me how to make poached egg in water and bread and poached egg sunnyside up used to be my daily breakfast if mom is in a hurry to go to school me and my sis used to have that. I still remember I could not even reach the gas plate used to climb on a chair and cook :-P. Then 1st time I cooked a complete dinner was when I was 6 and a half no one was at home and I was hungry. Used to see my mom cooking so cooked rice boiled daal in cooker cos I knew rice can be prepared in 1 whistle and daal in 2 and tried potato fry but potato fry was a disaster all burnt but since then I used to love cooking, knitting,embroidering and stuffs in short whatever mom used to do I must learn.. my real intention was to spend more time chatting with mom as I am a big chatterbox but I learned a lot of things from her and later on tried inventing something new.
