Yesterday in my rice I had cardamom, cinnamon stick, whole cloves, black mustard seeds, and bay leaf and ghee (butter) and it Amazing!

I also make tea with it. I put ginger, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon all whole and black tea and water with some milk or tb of cream.

I am like obsessed with cardamom so if you need any recipes or ideas let me know.

Baked Apples & Baked Pears, Flan & Vanilla Mousse

Desserts in which vanilla is an ingredient pair very aromatically ... Also can enrich a flan caramel custard and baked fruits ... Indian people have a real penchant for this herb, cardamom ...

Since Purim is tomorrow! YAY! It is Hamantashen time! So it usually consists of a simple dough and then you go nuts with the fillings, chocolate, poppy, apricot, prune, etc. And my personal fav is a mixture of ground walnuts, dates, cardamon, and sugar (sorry I do not have exact measurements but its pretty much to taste). Anyway Here is a recipe for the dough (the dough recipes are pretty much all the same so I just picked one - The Perfect Hamantaschen - NYTimes.com But you can google for a dough recipe of your liking

But its the filling that you can experiment with. Date/walnut/cardamom is very traditional. Happy Purim!
 
Indian Roast Lamb

I have found a recipe though I haven´t tried it ... yet ...

The 4 cardomam pods are opened along with nutmeg, cinammon, cilantro, garlic, ghee, blk pepper, cayenne, paprika, cumin and a rub is created for the lamb prior to roasting ... the lamb has a drizzle of lemon juice ( 1 tblsp prior to spice rub ) and it is roasted for 50 mins - 1 hr. Lamb is cooked in own juices, with bay leaf a little water, and a head of garlic in slits in the roast.

Sounds good ...

Oooh, I haven't made hamantaschen in a while. I was introduced to these as a teen when I had an assignment for a church activity to research recipes from the middle east. We were supposed to make our recipe and bring it to an activity for everyone to try. Found a recipe online and dad helped me make it. They became a favorite of mine.
