abdul Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 INDIANS There was once an Indian man called Mohammed who was involved in a car accident. At the hospital, when he awoke, he called for the nurse to tell him what had happened to him. "I'm very sorry, sir, but you were involved in a very bad car crash". "Car crash! My BM! my BM! is my car all right?" he asked hysterically. Sir, your car was destroyed, but that is the least of your worries you lost your left arm in the crash, and we were unable to save it she said apologetically. "I lost my arm? My Rolex! My Rolex!" "Sir, please calm down. That is the least of your worries. You are in a very critical condition, but all your family is here to see you". He asked for his family to be called in. As they gathered around the bed, he called for each of them by name. "Rehana, are you here?" "I am here husband, and I will never leave you". "Ridwaan, are you here?" "I am here father, and I will never leave you". "Rubina, are you here?" "I am here father, and I will never leave you." "Ismail, my child, are you here?" "I am here father, and I will never leave you." "Well," said Mohammed thoughtfully, "if Rehana, Ridwaan, Rubina and Ismail are here - if all of you are here, WHO THE HELL IS IN THE SHOP?!!!!"

Lyn Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Talking about Indians - I am dieing for a good old Durban samoosa, those little deep fried crispy triangles. Used to eat samoosas at least once a week. Here the Indians have samoosas, but they look more like a doughy thing. Yuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rajesh Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Oh, should I mention that I am having some right now, typing with somewhat oily fingers, Mmmmmmmm :bl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rajesh Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hey Guys,To make samoosas are easy, there is not much in terms of preparation, key is getting your filling correct. I suggest trying something simple like corn and cheese to start off with, then progress to potatoe and mince filling. BTW lamb mince filling tastes better and beef mince.

I reckon there are going to be many salivating forumites at the moment, unfortunately no oil on their keyboards but something less appetising.

Mara Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Serendipity, you just need to remember that Rajesh and I live close together, and you are thinking of heading way over to the wrong side! So we will be eating Pinky's samoosas alone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramer Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 I have heard differently : " Drie hoekie Coolie Koekie"I had heard that one to but I thought it was a bit Old SA, anyway here in KZN where I am from the Indians call themselves "Charou's", and me I am a "Honky" but I work with an indian chap who calls me "Charonky" which means Charourised Honky. One big happy family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
