Shree Mithai Divine

Was shopping in AnnaNagar with my cousin, when the hunger pangs struck us very badly. Both of us could not wait to head back home for dinner, hence went in for an early Dinner at Shree Mithai  Divine in Shanthi Colony. Shree Mithai has three levels here, first level is the sweet shop, second level is the self  service restaurant which serves South Indian, North Indian and Chinese cuisines along with Chaat counters. Third level is the dine in restaurant, that serves North Indian and Continental cuisines.

We headed to the dine in area, as both of us were tired to wait at a self service counter. There were about two other customers and the place was pretty empty. We got ourselves comfortable seating which was overlooking the street down. 

Now on the the food part of Shree Mithai. We had ordered for Veg clear soup and Veg Corn soup. Was so hungry that forgot to click pictures of the soups.

Vegetable Briyani was very tasty and was cooked to the right consistency. 

Paneer Butter Masala and Butter Naan were perfect. 

We had ordered stuffed Kulcha, but it was burnt and hence had to return it. 

Gobi Manchurian was more Indian than being Indo Chinese

Deserts were sinful to the core. That each of the dish was completely polished off till the last bit. 

The food was very tasty and Ambience was good. It was nice to overlook the road and have dinner. 

The waiters were very courteous and attentive. And the burnt Kulcha did not feature in our bill. I feel that was a good gesture.

Whole Wheat Pasta in Tomato Sauce

According to a data point in the internet, 1 cup of whole wheat pasta has 85 g of calcium in it. When we add vegetables, tomato and onions to the pasta, the health value increases to a greater level. This will be good news for mothers and kids who love pasta too. On to the recipe.

Ingredients

Whole wheat paste - 2 cups

Tomato sauce - 2 tbsp

Capsicum - 1 cup

Tomato - 1 cup

Onion - 1 cup

Cheese - 2 slices

Salt - to taste

Oregano - to taste

Olive Oil - 1 tbsp

Method 

Boil the paste to Al dente and set aside

Cut the capsicum, tomato and onions into thin strips 

In a pan heat olive oil and add the cut veggies

Saute till they are somewhat half done.

We do not want them to get mushy but be tender crisp

Now add the boiled pasta followed by tomato sauce

Adjust salt and when it is done, remove from fire

Sprinkle the oregano and grate the cheese over the cooked pasta.

Put it in the microwave for a minute and then serve hot
