End of semester party
 
Hi all, I am saddened to say that this semester is officially over with as of today. As tradition with my intermediate adult class, I have them make a travel brochure from their country, many of them dress in tradition dress to present it, and then they all make a traditional dish to share. I had some really good food: sushi, enchalidas, noodles, goat and rice (which I never ate before- it tasted like lamb, but not as strong), and a wonderful sweet carrot dish from Pakistan. I was unable to get the carrot recipe, does anyone know what that may be? It was tiny chopped up carrots, something that looked like a grain, and was very sweet.
 
If you know what it might have been, could you pass on the recipe?
 
I love all the traditional cultures and foods, for a teacher in America, I like to learn as much about my students and where they are from, as they do American people. I get so educated every semester!
