Samosas!

The man serving Easter dinner on the very far left in the blue shirt (you can hardly see him!) is our Mesfin! It's hard to get a picture of him unless you get up in the middle of the night to do it!!


I love it when people blog about the Mission. Another guest blog/cross post from Becca from her blog today:

Ok... So one thing I really miss from the city is Mesfin's cooking!!! Who is Mesfin you might ask? Mesfin is RRM's night supervisor on weekends... he works from 10pm-6am and what does he do? He cooks, he cleans - he is amazing. Not only does he cook, he cooks the most interesting, yet tasty casseroles, and best yet, great samosas and these crispy fried bread thingys....

I have been samosa deprived for quite some time now. It must be 4 or 5 months since I had one.

Tonight was going to be a relaxing tv night, but the desire for samosas seemingly trumped that. I couldn't wait till the next time I would have Mesfin's samosas. I had previously researched the topic, found some recipes, and bought ingredients; so tonight embarked upon making my treasured deep fried delights!

It was more time consuming than difficult... and the results were fantastic! They are not Mesfin's samosas that is for sure, but they are good! The recipe made quite a few and since I was ditched by my parents for supper tonight I ended up inviting my cousins over, and picking them up, to come try my samosas with me. Only one of my cousins ended up eating them, but he liked them. He ended the night eating a hot pepper and almost burning his face off...

Anyhow, I just needed to tell my samosa adventures.
Goodnight,
