Chicken & Potatoes In Creamy Lemon Sauce
It’s been a while since I posted a roast chicken recipe. Those are my favorite. So little work, such delicious food. Comforting, warm and nourishing, a platter of roast chicken and vegetables is enough to lift our moods at dinner time. While the sign of good roast meat is non-soggy meat, sometimes, just sometimes, I…
Chicken Mushroom Korma
The word korma evokes a sense of opulence and indulgence. A korma is a rich, creamy, slow-cooked Indian curry which can be made with chicken, lamb or just vegetables. Depending on which part of India you come from and how rich you want your korma to be, you can use nuts, raisins, cream or even…
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.

Chicken Vesuvio is an American-Italian dish, made by pan frying thick pieces of chicken and potatoes in olive oil, along with garlic, chili and oregano, which is then de-glazed using generous amounts of dry white wine and stock, and finished by baking in the oven. I first saw this dish being made by the ever-effervescent…
Light Potato Salad With Yogurt Dressing
I love the potato salad from Bill Miller BBQ. I do not have it that often, but I wanted it so bad the other day, I decided to make my own potato salad. I did not want to use mayonnaise or sour cream, but I found many recipes that used plain yogurt as the base for…
Dum Aloo / Slow-Cooked Spicy Potatoes
Dum Aloo or slow-steam-cooked potatoes (baby potatoes are best) is originally a Kashmiri dish, made by deep-frying the baby potatoes and slowly simmering them in a yogurt based spice mixture. As always, there are many variations of dum aloo. This is one of those dishes that is as much delicious served dry or with gravy. I…
