lol, I can't stop laughing picturing you looking into the imaginary camera and talking to yourself in the kitchen... that is something I've never done, and I thought I was crazy ;)...but may be this will come true, you might be hosting your own show one day... That curry looks delicious! Ginger is a sure winner..

@mallika,<BR/>i am not sure if we can bake it. but baking just 1/4 cup of ginger is waste of time and gas i feel;) it hardly absorbs oil when deep fried. so u can give it a try mallika. u can use fried ginger in salad dressing and soups also. tastes good and gives extra crunch and punch.<BR/><BR/>MT,<BR/>ah...jeera rice... yes, but tastes wonderful with plain white rice also:)<BR/><BR/>@jayashree
