INCOMPATIBILITY | Sunday, March 14, 2021
#INCOMPATIBILITY: these two things do not go together. Suddenly I see the point of #ebooks. It’s either that or learn to eat #jalebi with a knife and fork. Maybe chopsticks. The #NHS might see this post, suddenly assign me to a higher risk category and send an ambulance to vaccinate me. Can’t believe it’s half-past March. What a week. What a year. #optionality #richardmeadows
JALEBI | Saturday, November 14, 2020
#JALEBI: I harbour a deep dislike for most Indian sweets - they’re denser than tungsten - but there’s a few exceptions. These are made by deep-frying plain flour batter and soaking them in sugar syrup, and the description is enough to kill you, let alone eating a box-full. It’s found across Persian countries, where it basically originated, but only India makes them bright orange and crispy. Your humble correspondent feels that they improve after a few days once the sugar crystallizes and they become a bit softer. #diwali #sweets #type2diabetes
