*Archive Picture*
This picture was taken on a sunny morning last time...
The shop is called Moga Punjab...
Upon entering the shop, something "cute" caught my eye...
Feeling very curious, I quickly made the order for this.....
Then I asked my Indian colleagues.. what is this called...
I was told it was called Paci...
(not sure my spelling is correct or not)
It was still hot and crispy.... and without much ado, I cut it up...
Alright.. what was that embedded?
I really couldn't describe..
It tasted like "young potato" ...
But it was not...
My colleague told me it is cut from a young banana...
But I have my doubts... hahahaa...
I should have ordered this instead....
It is called "bonda"...
Again, my spelling might be out...
Underneath the crispy skin, it was filled with curry potatoes....
Tastier than curry puffs... cos more fillings ma...
Our meal is made full with this piece of crispy tosai....
Well.... that's my hearty breakie of the day!
Something really different, right?
Claire, I think I would go for the "bonda" and the crispy dosai. Paci looks too filling for me. So did you enjoy your paci breakie?
ReplyDeleteSure enjoyed... free transport.. free meal... hahahaa...
DeleteI don't think I have seen paci or bonda before. Interesting! Doesn't look like young banana to me, that paci :D
ReplyDeleteYeah.. and the thing is, I cannot describe the taste... !
DeleteReally interesting food. I have not heard of paci or bonda before.
ReplyDeleteI am not far from you... just heard it few days ago...
DeleteLooks really good! I love seeing you giggle, Claire!! Getting there first thing in the morning, you know it is very fresh!
ReplyDeleteYes, right.. they are indeed very fresh... :)
DeleteWah so nice, before work come to have a nice breakfast first.. We usually just have breakfast downstairs the cafe but I tapau before going up the office.. Oohhh paci? Never heard before, looks good wor, I like fried stuff, so I think I will like this one..
ReplyDeleteI think we have not tried a lot of stuff.. hahaha..
DeleteFirst time seeing you having Indian cuisine? I'm not familiar with many of their stuff either but we do not have so many of them here and no real 100% Indian makan places either.
ReplyDeleteI take Indian food once awhile..not first time la.. so many posts on indian food already.. nann.. roti canai... masalah tosai... hahaha..
Deleteoh, that is something new to me, never seen and heard of a "paci".. at first it really looks like a piece of roast pork on the plate to me, hahaha!! interesting stuff and i want to try this one day, but i think it's not quite common, else how the heck i have not tasted this before?? i am the famous Thambee from Tirachiruppallisingalinggam dei~~ hahahahahaha!!
ReplyDeletehahahaha.... then you must go explore deeper into the Thambee territory!
DeleteNo, thank you, not to my liking, not into Indian foods..
ReplyDeleteYou try first then next time, no stopping.. hahaha
DeleteIt looks really delicious (and authentic too!).
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of Indian sweets, there's a shop in KL that sells all sorts of the milk, sugar and ghee concoctions. Happy holidays Reana! :)
Thank You, HB... YOU enjoyed your festive season too!!
DeleteVery nice breakfast! I love Indian food :)
ReplyDeleteOnce awhile it is indeed very nice!
DeleteFirst time saw this huge paci. A very fulfilling breakfast. Bonda & tosai would be my choice. Merry Christmas & Blessed Happy New Year 2015 to you & your family.
