Any meat stew - Malabar style

Here is a simple recipe to make stew.

Any meat of your choice. cinamon and cloves, pepper, onion, green chillies, oil to sautte the onion, spices and chillies and salt to taste

Heat oil, throw in the cinamon and cloves ( how much cinnamon and cloves you need is something you will have to figure out after a few attempts. there is no fun in telling you that you need 10 grms of cinamon andf 10 florets of cloves. ) when the aroma fills the room, throw in the onions, green chillies and sautte for some more time. when the onions become pale , throw in the meat and pepper an salt. Do all this in a pressure cooker if the meat is a bit tough. when its cooking, make a cup of coconut milk. there are diffrent ways of doing this. the easiest way is to run to the nearest supermarket and get a packet of coconut milk powder. follow instructions on the packet and you should get some coconuit milk without too much hassles. after the meat is cooked, open the pressure cooker and turn the heat to low/sim then add the coconut milk to the cooked meat and bring it to near boiling point - this is important - DO NOT BOIL .

ladies and gentlemen, your stew is ready.

Production Support - What it means to be 24/7

I used work in - what is called in corporate parlance, a 24/7 Company. I used to feel perfectly normal. My friends and wife thought I was a zombie. This I had dismissed as a subjective observation but lately, I have been thinking that there might have been some truth in that observation. Let me explain why I feel that way I used to drive to my office on a motorbike. Its a 20 kms drive one way. So very complex rocket science math will tell the cautious reader that I drive 40 kms at the least everyday (tadaaa). I used to do night shifts or again in Corporate parlance; "the graveyard shift". My wife asks me one day if I remember anything that I saw on the roads that was worth mentioning when driving. I thought she had gone crazy. Why would I remember anything that i saw and what was the poin........Hey, hold on, wait a minute. jees, I don't actually remember anything nor can I recall which way I came. 'Holy Pulsar' what is happening ? I drove on auto-pilo...

Anecdotes from Sainik School, Kazhakootam - "Simple Mistake".

When I was in School, I was very weak in Mathamatics. I don't understand this, because most of the IQ test which I had taken up on the Net said I have a "rare mathematical ability". I badly want to believe that this is the truth. Who else other than me, with this rare mathematical ability would say that SineA/SineB = A/B. Guess how I got that. No prizes for guessing, Sine and Sine were cut away and now you have a "rare mathematical ability". We had a teacher in school who made this remarkable comparison when we went to him with the corrected answer sheets and begged for one more mark to make the total for the passing score. We used to say things like--scratching our heads--the works, to look ur most pitiable self "sir, sir, sir ,simple mistake sir, steps are correct sir, one mark sir, please sir--" its a bad scene, Believe me, you don't wanna be there. He in turn said this story about simple mistakes. Simple mistake ?, I'll tell u a story. A tr...
