nosrednaydujWe decided to celebrate the inauguration by having foods that the newly inaugurated persons enjoyed. Ken did the research. Apparently Biden's favorite food is spaghetti and meatballs, which we thought was insufficiently celebratory.
However Harris has more interesting tastes, and the two dishes we saw were seafood gumbo and masala dosa. So we made both of them! One for lunch and one for dinner on Wednesday.
Dosa is a kind of Indian flat bread whose batter is made from puréed slightly fermented beans and rice. Masala apparently just means "mixed", and the recipe we found was a spicy onion and potato curry, which you put inside kind of like a crêpe. It was kind of finicky to get the pancakes to work, but it was all yummy in the end.
Maybe we'll have spaghetti and meatballs sometime this weekend.
