The pictures were taken handheld under fluorescent light. I actually had no plans of doing this when I started, but changed my mind halfway through the process since I was falling back on my photos again.
What I made was a potato-stuffed Indian bread which can be made spicy or mild, and a spicy chick pea curry to accompany it. The bread is pretty filling and can be a complete meal in itself when paired with a yogurt based salad, called Raita. But I needed to check out the compatibility of the two together, since the chick pea curry is normally had with a plain (without stuffing) deep-fried Indian bread called a Bhatura. The type of bread I made is also normally deep fried, but I chose to try out a healthier option and baked them instead. These are called Kulcha. They turned out really good, if not better than the fried option. :)
