Am i...Hi Sandeepa, yummie taste and yummie flavour! Am in (going to be) in dinnertime soup mode these days!LOL! Oven roasted tomatoes for soup, novelty! Definitely shall try!<br /><br />Here's my own Desi(A Marwari friend taught me) of tomatoe soup and is yummie too!<br /><br />6/7 tomatoes - Put in pressure cooker with enough water and salt to taste. Give it one whistle. Puree. No need of straining. Put to simmer for few minutes.<br /><br />Seasoning- In a small frying pan, put little ghee(1 tsp) or butter, when slightly hot(not too hot), put 1/2 tsp.jeera powder(cumin), pinch of hing, pinch of haldi and little red chilly powder. Add it to the tomatoe puree soup and simmer. Take off fire and enjoy!! Can sprinkle chopped coriander leaves!<br /><br />Well, I have been through worse bringing up my two brats who are grown up now! Smaller one was spoilt tight by darling mom-in-law who would make him wear his uniform, shoes, everything when inside his blanket in the bed in sleeping mode! Bath? Forget it!! Was not in his horoscope. Would have it at late night before sleep, that,too, sometimes!! Breakfast? Forget it!! Only milk, not a full glass, that too! Tiffin? Had to complain to his teacher to supervise or else Mommy dear would have to finish for throwing it in the garbage is against my principles!<br /><br />Hope you are luckier!!khabarpagolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-25383496533633608392009-09-17T11:30:10.004-04:002009-09-17T11:30:10.004-04:00Sigh...just went through that whole transition thi...Sigh...just went through that whole transition thing with my 4 year old this April; after almost 2 years in pre-school which she loved completely, everything about the nursery in "big school" seemed wrong! Luckily, we got over the whole drama routine every morning (do they come hard wired?!) after a month - so hang in there!!<br />The only saving grace is that this school is at 8 am and exactly 0.5 km away!! But of course, we have to talk non stop for the one hour that we take to get ready!!!<br /><br />The roasted tomatoes look so yummy, I would have eaten them as is! :)Mirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13676408925598600874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-76939721107275565892009-09-17T03:12:58.061-04:002009-09-17T03:12:58.061-04:00Same with me till date after my son moving into 2n...Same with me till date after my son moving into 2nd std. Waking him up in the morning and getting him eat is breakfast! And lunch thats another story altogether. Sandwhiches won't last long and once they settle down their tastebuds would demand more vareities. So please wait for some more time to prepare good lunches for her. The tomato soup looks lovely. I adore the flavors and looks like a must try.Nirmalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06208705843959737265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-91426333165590012642009-09-17T01:37:51.997-04:002009-09-17T01:37:51.997-04:00hi Sandeepa,

As for...Sandeepa,I love this kinda soup anyday :-)<br /><br />As for the kiddies ' school business, touchwood, but I've never had any problems with R and A waking up in the morning;they get up by themselves, before 6 ,even on weekends :-( Both of them enjoy going to school very much... even after their transition from the nursery to main school.The actual "drama" starts once they step into the bathroom ( where they seem to stay forever) and while having breakfast, where they think that's the only time they've got to talk about every topic under the sun :-(sunitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09176577177334401747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-54825483806796808182009-09-16T08:47:21.917-04:002009-09-16T08:47:21.917-04:00Kiran
