Travel cooking / cooking with basic equipment While planning on a All India trip on my motorbike, I started collecting /developing recipes which can be prepared on the road / hotel room / train / while camping or anywhere with the most basic equipment. A simple pestle and mortar, a knife and a grater is all you need to prepare a variety of chutneys listed here. These make ideal recipes for those with no kitchen / students living in hostels. 5 minutes of pounding and patience is all you need to cook these. Pounded chutneys taste much better than the ones blended in a blender. This is because a high speed blender heats up and partially cooks the food. The difference in taste is dramatic in coconut chutneys. A pestle and mortar is also a great way to grind up very small quantities of spices. The following recipes are listed in this cookbook : 1.: Mint / Cilantro / Tamarind leaves chutney. 2.: Mango chutney. 3.: Pottukadalai Chutney 4.: Groundnut / Sesame / Cashew chutney. 5.: Coconut chutney. 6.: Radish Chutney 7.: Shallots /Onion / Garlic chutney 8.: Baby Tamarind pod chutney 9.: Grilled vegetable bharta |
