Baked white sauce pasta
Desi Italian, we as Indians like Indianising a lot of things, this recipe is one of them. When we make Italian at home, our complaint always remains the same. The taste is rather flat for our pallet. We like to spice things up a little. I added some jalapeños, before baking them. Unfortunately this time […]
Rajma Masala
Every house I’ve gone to has its own recipe for this dish. This is the version my mum has been making since we were kids. One of the few veggie protein packed meals. This bus one of the first few recipes I tried making on my own as well. It is a huge hit, whenever […]
Dahi Vada Chaat
Dahi Vada Chaat Recipe Three things were always made for my birthday Besi Bele Baath, Dahi Vada Chaat and Sajjige or at times in even Mysore Pak as a kid! It was always a crowd pleaser. The taste is so amazing, whenever my mom asks me what I want special I always say Dahi Vada […]
Besi Bele Baath
Growing up, every birthday party any of us attended this was the main dish. Every kid liked it, little did they know that it was so easy to make and the taste was so similar to a normal sambar. The one thing all of us did was eating it with spicy potato chips and using […]
Palak Paneer or Saag Paneer
The earliest memory I have of palak paneer, is from the 90s, paneer wasn’t available in a store. My mum used to make it at home, tie the muslin cloth and tell us all at home to not splash water on it. When my brother and I were kids, we always wanted something different, not […]
Butternut Squash Bartha
The dish is a very East meets West recipe, the vegetable is a western one and the recipe is very Desi or Indian. A while ago I had been to a shop in Bangalore and I had got 2 of these, 1 used one and made both pasta and a pasta sauce with it. I […]
Chocolate and peanut butter cups
The way this recipe came about is strange! I had made it for the first time when in 2020. I had bought a 1kg of peanut butter and I was trying to find a way to consume it. Reese’s peanut butter cups have always been my favourite. I’ve been on a diet of sorts, I […]
Kashmiri pulao or dry fruits pulao
In 2018, when my husband and I moved to our apartment in Electronic City, Bangalore, I wanted to learn new dishes, it is easier to cook for two. Someone had gifted us with a box of dry fruits, I wanted to make something that wasn’t a sweet. So I was looking around for recipes and […]
Baby corn masala
This is my mums imagination it came about as something different for me and my brother! Constantly inventing and innovating new recipes to keep 2 voracious eaters happy! Shallow frying gives it a crunch, something different from other curries. Baby corn wasn’t really easily available, whenever we got it at home, my mom used to […]
Veg Spring Roll
Isn’t this the dish that you always ordered when you’ve gone out? Or when you order at home? Do you know it is the easiest thing to make and it so tasty and fresh! This recipe really takes around 10 to prep, 5 minutes to cook and 20 minutes to bake! That’s it, you can […]
