00:00So I have selected a recipe for you

00:02But let me tell you, it's going to be a little spicy

00:04Can you...

00:05Everyone says this to me, like I love spice

00:07Great to know that

00:08So it's a local Maharashtrian dish

00:10Misal pav

00:11We add in the matki

00:12Whole thing?

00:13Yeah, the whole thing

00:14And then we add in some turmeric

00:17Just a little bit of that

00:18Yeah

00:19That's it

00:20That's it?

00:21Yeah, that's it

00:22And like in India we say

00:23Namak swaad anusaar

00:24That means salt according to taste

00:26Cool

00:27So, according to your taste

00:28Alright

00:29And then goes in the water

00:31Should be like about 2 inches above the beans

00:34Yeah, we'll put it over there

00:35And we'll just leave it?

00:36Yeah, we'll just slide it up

00:37Cool

00:38And then we just leave that?

00:39Yeah, we leave that

00:40It cooks for...

00:41Until 2 whistles

00:42We're trying to roast these

00:44And give them a little colour

00:46Until they're like kind of blackened

00:48Now we'll keep roasting it

00:49So that we get this nice smoky flavour

00:52Into the misal

00:53You just need to keep turning it

00:55Just be careful

00:56Do you usually cook?

00:57I do, yeah, yeah

00:58I cook Sunday roast

01:00Throughout the week

01:01Me and my wife will have

01:02Simple meals like

01:03Salad niswaar or something like that

01:05And then once a week

01:06I'll cook a big roast

01:08So I guess

01:09This is the first time

01:10That you're cooking a real Indian meal

01:12I guess

01:13Yeah, definitely

01:14Definitely in India

01:16And this is almost done

01:18So what we're going to do is

01:20We'll remove this

01:21And we'll let it cool down

01:22I'm going to switch this off

01:23Are you big on ghee?

01:24Do you use ghee?

01:25Yeah, yeah

01:26You want to use some ghee today?

01:27Let's use some ghee, yeah

01:28Yeah, we have it

01:29Do the honours

01:30As much as you like

01:33With the ghee

01:34We'll add a little bit of oil

01:36So that the ghee does not smoke up

01:38It does not burn

01:40That's one

01:41I need to get one of these

01:42Yeah, you need to

01:43That's number two

01:44And it's done

01:46Okay

01:47Cool

01:48So now we let it rest

01:49So that it depressurises

01:50I need one of these, man

01:51That's great

01:52Oil's heated up over here

01:54We have a lot of spices over here

01:55Which I am going to let you add

01:56I'll just place this over here

01:58This is cumin

01:59This is black cumin

02:00It's called Shah jeera

02:01Mustard seeds?

02:02That's coriander seeds

02:03Coriander

02:04Yeah

02:05Cinnamon

02:06Cardamom, black cardamom

02:07Some black peppercorns

02:08Are those mushrooms?

02:09No, those are cloves

02:11Cloves

02:12Yeah

02:13Keep cooking this

02:14For another one or two minutes

02:15And this one's done

02:17So we just pour this into this

02:22How am I doing so far?

02:23You're doing good

02:24Would you hire me or would you fire me?

02:26You're hired, my friend

02:36Be careful, the oil's hot

02:39Who chops up the onions?

02:41These are really fine

02:42I can't chop onions like this

02:44Now, the kanda lasun masala goes inside

02:47This smells so good

02:48Yeah, it smells good already
