Indian Food

This is going to be my next attempt at Indian food. Looks good. Possibly this weekend.

Anyone ever tried making these? I'll have to get some chickpea flour, asafoetida, and split black lentils (sounds like a spice?) at the Indian grocery this weekend. Am psyched.

FYI

Regarding this recipe ( asafoetida ) may have gluten in it, so be careful.

Those look amazing! Do you have the fancy little pan to get them to fry right?

As Mizzo says, you will have to find asafoetida resin or get lucky enough to find hing powder made with rice flour rather than wheat. I usually just sub a little garlic.

Split black lentils (urad dal) are a small split bean, not a spice. I have some in the pantry. :)

Do you have the pan for it? You can purchase it at Indian or specialty food shops. It makes the job easier; in fact, it is almost a necessity. Your other option is to deep fry which also works. Haven't made this particular recipe but have made others and they are GOOD!!!

What are you serving them with? They are wonderful with coconut chutney or some sort of tart sauce (i.e. with plum).

Have fun!

Thanks Mizzo and Sky Lark! Will take your advice, for sure!

I don't have one of those pans, so will deep fry OR see if they have inexpensive ones at the Indian grocery. I THINK I will make some more of the rice with tumeric that someone posted here with the Arabian Stew and possibly some lamb and curry sauce. What do you recommend?

Lamb with curry sauce is a splendid idea. Then you could dip the balls into that if you want. Chutneys are traditional but who says you must remain traditional? :P

The balls can also be made with sweet potatoes - maybe an option for next time.

Sometimes a little pickle (even a simple quick cucumber pickle) can be nice to add a touch of acidity.

This green pea dish is AWESOME!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
