The Classic Indian Bun Omelette

This one includes tomatoes and probably green chilis, and was served on a bun with funky pink and green candied fruit.

Recipe:

  1. fry onions in butter until soft (or brown, if you like)
  2. fry tomatoes too, if you’re using them
  3. add eggs lightly beaten with a little milk
  4. add green chilis (chopped into small rounds) and fresh cilantro/coriander
  5. flip to cook the other side
  6. when cooked, fold in half and serve alongside bun as shown above or (better) fold into quarters and serve ON bun. Bun should be toasted in the same pan so it gets nice and greasy.
  7. Have sweet, milky tea with it.

In case you’re wondering: cheese noodles is Ramen or Wai Wai noodles with cheese stirred in so it melts while the broth is good and hot.

Gallery: Hauz Khas, Delhi

Hauz Khas is a quiet green spot in the madness which is Delhi, with tourist appeal and historical significance. These photos are from my 2004 visit. Note that the gallery below now includes Jantr Mantr and other sites in Delhi.

ps There are some nice boutique shops and at least one great restaurant nearby.

Woodstock School: Study in India’s Himalayas

I attended Woodstock School, an international boarding school in Mussoorie, Uttaranchal, India, from 1977 to 1981 (when I graduated from high school). It meant a great deal to me, and, like many other alumni, I am very actively involved with the school.

The Woodstock School pages on my site are for present, former, and future students, staff, parents, and friends of Woodstock School – and anyone else who would like to learn about this unique and wonderful institution.

The School Today

Wildylog – Pete and Dot Wildman are staff members at Woodstock School, natives of Liverpool. Pete’s been keeping a web site of pictures and journal entries about their Woodstock experience. His writing is warm, funny, and reflects very well the open-mindedness and sense of adventure that brought them to India. You’ll enjoy this site whether or not you have any ties to or interest in Woodstock.

My daughter Rossella attended Woodstock as a senior, graduation in 2008. Her India adventures can be seen here.
