For the third week of BM, I am doing family recipes. Most of the recipes from the earlier stage of my blog are family recipes. I asked mum and put together as many recipes as I can and after selecting family recipes as the theme, I was totally confused. What have I missed was the […]
Mathri is a Rajasthani snack made out of flour and spices and is deep fried in oil. There are two varieties of mathris. One is the flat one which is crispy and the other is made thick which is flaky and crumbly. These are perfect tea time snacks. As mathris are mildly spiced, they are […]
For the 17th day of Blogging Marathon #32, the alphabet we needed to use is Q. Searching a recipe starting with Q was very difficult. I saw a recipe for Queen Elizabeth Cake, but as I had to do a lot of baking in the previous months, I skipped it. Then one fine day, i […]
For the second day of Blogging Marathon Week 2 I tried out this wonderful spiced butter as a spread for my toasts. If I have to choose between the pumpkin spread and this herbed butter, I would go for this yummy butter. With a slight hint of garlic and fresh coriander this butter tasted delicious […]
For this month’s Magic Mingle#6, Kalyani chose two of my favorite ingredients. All purpose flour/ maida and Coriander are the magic ingredients, members have to use up in a single dish. When I first read about this combination, the first thing which came to my mind is biscuits. But after some though, I decided upon […]
This has been in my draft folder for long. I prepared this to go paneer pulao and it was so nice. The koftas were very soft and this gravy is also good with parathas or naan. You can either deep fry the koftas or cook them in paniyaram pan for a healthy version. I deep […]
I prepared this pulao for my guests on Tamil New Year as part of Fusion Thali I posted last week. It is a simple pulao loaded with vegetables. The masal paste is coriander based so the colour is green. You can also add fried bread slices at the end for an interesting addition. I served […]
Today is the 14th week of Blog Hop Wednesday. I was paired with Anusha Praveen of Tomato Blues by Radhika. She has a nice collection of recipes and I selected this flavourful Kulcha for the day. The mild flavour of garlic and cilantro in the kulcha was very nice. The kulchas were very soft and […]
When ever I think of Pani puri, I remember my mom. She makes the best pani puris according to me. When we were in college, my brother used to bring his friends to home for parties. All his friends were my mom’s fans. They liked whatever she prepares. Pani puri is one of their favorites. […]
Pudachi Wadi is a special Maharashtrian snack which uses fresh coriander leaves as filling. Srivalli selected Pudachi Wadi for this month’s ICC. The recipe is from Archana of Tried and Tasted Recipes. I have not changed any ingredient in the original recipe. It came out great. Especially the tamarind and garam masala paste gives a […]
