It does look like sunrise in a glass, doesn’t it? I am super excited to share this amazing mocktail with all of you, but first, I must tell you how it came to be. I mentioned in this post that a bunch of us have decided to do a monthly blog post based on a…
Jalapeno Cheddar Muffins
Every once in a while, I bake a batch of savory whole wheat muffins studded with whatever vegetables I happen to have in my refrigerator that day. We have them with our evening tea and eat them at breakfast. As I write this, I also realize that I’ve never shared the recipe with you. My…
Quinoa, Tofu And Vegetable Stir Fry
If you are a food blogger, I have a question for you. Do you post recipes as and when you make them or do you take your sweet time posting them? I normally space them out because some days I am all charged up and create awesome recipes,while some days are just meant to be…
Kurkuri Masala Bhindi {Indian Style Crispy Okra Fry}
My husband loves okra, but he has just one condition, it must be super crispy. He has the same philosophy when it comes to eggplant as well. Over the years, I have convinced him it is better to forego texture for health and he has somewhat reluctantly agreed. That’s how I ended up creating my…
Whole Roasted Chicken {Seasoned With Sumac And Piri Piri Sauce}
Many people who cook will fondly recollect time spent cooking with their mothers since childhood. But me, not so much really. Of course, like most children, I may have been excited at the prospect of playing with flour and dough and in general, being more of a nuisance than help. I have to thank my…
Dirt & Worms Pudding – Kids’ Delight!
Picture this. You are at the grocery store, trying frantically to locate the items on your list, all the while trying to steer your kids’ eyes away from the candy aisle. And almost always, they are drawn to it like moths to a flame. Starburst is Boy’s favorite and also those icky gummy treats. Gummy…
Garlic Butter Pasta With Herbed Chicken
I love a good pasta dish, but sometimes the sauce instead of elevating the dish, weighs it down and becomes too heavy for a weeknight dinner. If you’ve ever felt that way and do not include pasta too often in your meal plan, then this recipe is for you. This pasta recipe is light and…
Spicy Chicken Tacos {With Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Verde}
Who doesn’t love taco night? Whether you like a simple one-ingredient taco or over-stuffed tacos with a bit of everything, I have just the thing for you. For me, a good taco has two stars. Firstly, perfectly seasoned and cooked meat and then, a killer salsa sauce to complement it. Once you have these two…
Cardamom-Vanilla Cake Topped With Nutella
It seems there is a special day for anything and everything under the sun. I am not one to follow these trends, so imagine my surprise when I learned that there was an entire day dedicated to Nutella! I give Nutella my fair share of love, but nothing over the top really. I like to…
Balti Style Chicken {Chicken Cooked In A Spicy Masala}
Do you know what Balti cuisine is? I did not, till recently. It is believed to have originated around Baltistan, north of Pakistan and Kashmir, and migrated to Birmingham, where it enjoys a sort of cult status. I found a bunch of Balti style recipes in a new cookbook I got. Having never heard of…
Yogurt, Berry And Granola Parfait
Last week, I introduced you to these new granola bars that can be baked at home with minimum fuss. While I loved the granola as such, I also wanted to use it in other creative, yet easy and healthy ways. And what better than parfait? Parfait was traditionally used to refer to a layered frozen…
Masala Vada And Elaichi Chai {Spicy Lentil Fritters And Cardamom Tea}
Tea time is an important part of Indian culture. At the end of a long day, we love to sit back and relax with a hot cup of tea and freshly-made snacks, with deep-fried delicacies holding a special spot in our hearts. Tea (or coffee) time is like a sacred ritual and followed religiously by…
