Steamed Bhapa Sandesh is my favourite recipe from the Indian Sweets Marathon I did earlier this year. I even made it into a sugar free version using substitutes. When I chose the steamed dishes theme for this month, I wanted to make a similar dish with paneer but which is also apt for my diet. […]
This week is all about global cuisine. Usually there would be a set of regulations for any given theme, but this time Valli was so lenient and asked us to make any three dishes from around the world excluding USA and India. First I chose to make three breads, but since I couldn’t make all […]
Shot glass is a wonderful way to serve mini portions for kids. My daughter struggles to finish a dessert served in bowls because the quantity. She usually takes three days to finish it off. But when I serve it in shot glass, she finishes hers in a single go. So for the mini theme, I […]
Ever since I started with paleo/ low carb diet, I have been preparing paneer at home regularly. Before the diet, I used to make paneer with one litre of milk, but after starting the diet, I couldn’t make it daily. So started making paneer in bulk with 6 or 12 litres of milk. At first […]

The second country I chose from the list of Asian countries is Bangladesh. Being neighbor of West Bengal, most of the recipes are identical.

Here is one more recipe I made with paneer, but this one has eggs in it. Eggs bind this casserole. With my new casserole dish, I wanted to try one immediately. I used to make casseroles in my Borosil loaf tin, but recently my daughter broke it. I was really sad that day as I […]
