TONIGHT! Indian noodles by @thindi.toronto
TONIGHT! 6pm+
Drop In Dinner: Eclectic Indian Noodles by Anuja Mehta  Most people in North America are familiar with Ramen, but Anuja Mehta is introducing them to Thindi, a uniquely Indian take on noodles. Flavoured with authentic Indian spices and fresh, local ingredients these noodle dishes are more saucy than soupy — the noodles are really the star of the show with their toothsome texture and ability to absorb a ton of flavour.  Banana Pakoda $6
Popular monsoon-season street snacks in Mumbai, these crispy, addictive banana fritters are battered with breadcrumbs, chickpea flour and spices, and served with spicy green coriander chutney.  Spinach Works $12
Noodles in a delicious spinach-garlic sauce with fresh spinach & green chillies, spiced with turmeric & sauteed cumin seeds. Topped with fresh green onions and a dollop of sour cream.  Desi Mac 'n' Cheese $12
Noodles with house-made bechamel infused with cheddar & mozzarella, a blend of a dozen aromatic spices, and a touch of heat from fresh green chilies. Topped with toasted breadcrumbs, more cheese, and fresh coriander.  Tadka Sizzler $12
Noodles dressed in a flavourful Tadka (sizzle) — a very aromatic spice blend, with fresh curry leaves, mustard & cumin seeds, red chilli powder and flakes sizzled in clarified butter.  Top any noodle dish with a fried egg +$2  Pineapple Grilled Cheese $6
An Indian street-food favourite — white bread layered with pineapple jam, slices of pineapple, and mozzarella cheese.  Prix Fixe Menu $23
Pakoda + Noodles + Dessert -----
We just love noodles! Abhilash and Anuja, partners-in-crime (and life) both share a common love for food and a decade of living and exploring New York City. They recently launched Thindi where you can order these delicious noodle dishes via UberEats, DoorDash or for Pickup.

https://thedepanneur.ca/event/newcomer-kitchen-the-depanneur-wed-feb-20/
Time for a bit of honest talk.  Newcomer Kitchen has been running out of The Depanneur for nearly 3 years. In that time it has done some truly amazing things, not the least of which is putting over $150K into the hands of over 80 Syrian newcomer families while creating a unique opportunity for dignified social and economic participation. 
But the weekly pop-up relies almost entirely on the sale of 50 meals each week. Up until recently, the meals have almost always sold out, but since late 2018 we have seen a precipitous decline in the number of meals sold.  Where we could previously plan, shop and prep for a known number of meals in advance, we are now frantically scrambling to try and sell meals right up until the last minute, often with many going unsold. This is causing a lot of extra work and stress, but more crucially, it is tipping the pop-up from barely breaking even to losing money in an unsustainable way. We are going to have to regroup and reconsider how best to proceed into 2019 in the face of this new reality. 
In the meantime, the ladies are hard at work today at The Dep, cooking up another beautiful meal, of which there are still 20 left for purchase for pickup or delivery tonight.

https://thedepanneur.ca/event/newcomer-kitchen-the-depanneur-wed-feb-20/ [chicken] Freekeh w Roz bil D'jaj فريكة و رز بالدجاج
Freekeh is made from green durum wheat that processed in a special way to create a unique flavor. The wheat is harvested while the grains are yellow and the seeds still are soft; it then is piled and sun-dried. The piles are carefully set on fire so only the straw and chaff burn, not the seeds. In these controlled conditions, the high moisture content of the seeds prevents them from burning, but imparts them with a unique smoky flavour. Next, the roasted wheat is threshed and sun-dried before being cracked into smaller pieces so they resemble a green bulgur.  In this dish, both rice and freekeh are cooked separately in a chicken stock flavoured with onion, cloves, 7 spice (baharat) and bay. It is then layered with freekeh underneath, then rice, shredded chicken on the top, and garnished with fried almonds. [vegetarian] Freekeh فريكة
The vegetarian version of freekeh is made with chickpeas, green peas, and local squash, flavoured with vegetables stock, and garnished with fried almonds.  Keyar bil Laban خيار باللبن
Is a traditional middle eastern cucumber salad, similar to Greek tzatziki, this combines cool yogurt with garlic and cucumbers, but the addition of mint makes for an especially delightful, cool and refreshing salad.  Ma’amoul bil tamer معمول بالتمر
An ancient Arab dessert, these delicate pastry cookies are filled with dates. They may be in the shape of balls, domed or flattened disks, decorated by hand or be made in specially carved wooden molds, often passed down in families for generations. $25 +HST >> PURCHASE HERE <<
