Last week I was shopping in A-1 groceries in Chicago getting some Indian groceries I always try to avoid that shop because their bill doesnt show the item names instead lists most of the items as item1 , item 2 etc., this way you cant track or know what is the price of the item. But my hubby insisted since it is on our way home.
Whenever I say try to avoid shops run by these people from this specific state in India he would reply that I was too judgemental. But he learnt his lesson that day, the bill was pretty high and before stepping out of the shop he insisted the shopowner to explain the bill and items and rate , wow! around 50$ in total 200$ bill ,that shop owner had cheated and after 30 mins of beating the bush, he pretended that it was some genuine mistake and returned the money. God! I am never going to that shop again.
Moral of story : If the bill reads item1 ,item 2 instead of item name never buy anything from that shop and always have extra pair of eyes when you shop in stores like these :(
Winter maybe over but there is always room for soup.
Ingredients :
White beans - 1 cup
garlic - 4 or 5 cloves
onion - 1 medium
stock - 3 cups
thyme -1/2 tsp
rosemary - 1/2 tsp
spinach - 8 oz
salt and pepper and oil
Method:
1. In a deep bottomed pan, heat oil and add garlic cloves and chopped onion and fry fine.
2.Add beans[already baked] and thyme and rosemary
3.Add stock and let it boil for sometime.
4.Add chopped spinach and let it boil for sometimes till spinach leaves turn tender.
5. Add salt and pepper.
Serve with breadslice. Yummm!
Happy cooking!
