Powers and pitfalls of psychopathology

Macmillan cancer support coffee day

I am hosting coffee morning at my home this year in support of Macmillans charity.

I am fascinated by the great cancer support work done by this charity, so this is a small gesture that I could do to raise cuppa for a great cause.

The prevalance of cancer continues to increase and as a medical doctor I am well aware of the horrendous effect of cancer on the affected patients physical and psychological well being.No person should be let to suffer cancer alone and charities are doing great work in increasing awareness, providing psychological support to persons affected by cancer and their carers and many more.

Lets do whatever we can to support their great efforts.

My favourite quotes

It's very easy to do a tasty chicken curry with a rich blend of flavours

1. Heat oil in a pan and fry cinnamon , bay leaves and cardamom 

2. Slice two onions and fry them until golden brown along with the spices

3.pour a tin of tomato purée over this along with finely chopped garlic, ginger and some salt to taste

4.fry 500 mg of diced chicken along with this mixture and add 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder, I tsp chilly powder and corraiander powder

5.add water and boil it in a medium flame for 30 minutes

6, add corraiander and a teaspoon of garam masala before taking the pan off the fire

Serve with basmati rice and enjoy ..
