Great crepes are all about getting the batter right. I find that the best and easiest way to make a perfect batter is using a blender. No lumps, no tearing when you flip, with just 10 seconds of whizzing! It’s a breeze to make crepes if you get the batter right. Too thin, and the crepes tear easily when you flip them. Too thick, then the batter is difficult to swirl around to coat the pan to make thin crepes....

During my recent visit to Little India, I picked up these pomegranates and I have 2 oranges lying in my fruit basket for the past week. I wanted to make a juice with the combo of pomegranate and orange and this turns out so yummy and I can say this a perfect thirst quencher. I couldn’t take proper clicks as kids were waiting to have this after finishing their cycling....

We all love adding mint | and coriander leaves to the chutney. We South Indians make different varieties of chutney for idli |dosa. I have posted another version of the mint coriander chutney recipe in Jeyashris kitchen. This is one very simple version without the addition of onion and garlic. Though making Idli | dosa is an easy one for breakfast or dinner, making a side dish for idli/dosa is always a task for me, and most of the time I end up making Onion tomato chutney and coconut chutney( recipe coming soon) and sometimes will make Tiffin Sambar too....

It’s Super Bowl Sunday this weekend. Just the biggest game day in America in the entire year. To put this into perspective for Australians, it’s like our equivalent of the Melbourne Cup. You know how we call that the “race that stops the nation”? And it literally does – I was once on the M5 and traffic almost came to a standstill for the 3 minutes the race was on....

Smooth buttercream frosting or ganache on cakes There are various reasons why you might want a perfectly smooth frosting on a cake. Maybe you’re simply wanting a pristine, smooth cake surface for your cake decoration. Or perhaps you need an immaculately even base for a flawless Mirror Glaze. So today I’m sharing how I do it. Yes, I will be pulling out some speciality cake decorating equipment. But no, they aren’t essential....

Are you a raisin person? I love raisins but I realize that there are people out there who believe raisins don’t belong anywhere where you could easily substitute chocolate chips. To them, I say this: “um, just add chocolate chips to the batter?” Yes, it’s that easy. You can sub half the amount of raisins for chocolate chips to make soft cinnamon, raisin & chocolate chip oatmeal cookies – OR I suppose you could leave the raisins out altogether (but don’t do that!...

Fabulous lazy Monday meal – made from scratch, using my cheeky “shake and pour” shortcut pasta sauce! Spinach and Ricotta Spinach and ricotta. We stuff things with it (Cannelloni, Rotolo, shells!), we layer things with it, we roll it up in puff pastry and we wrap it in pastry. So why don’t we stir it through pasta bakes? This is a lazy Monday meal I’ve been making for years. I know it’s a little different, but it really is tasty....

HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM OK, so you might know an ice cream specialist or a fancy pants restaurant that makes a stellar strawberry ice cream with fresh strawberries, and it really truly tastes of strawberries. So it’s a bit bullish to say this homemade strawberry ice cream recipe has flavour money can’t buy. But if we’re talking about everyday strawberry ice cream sold in tubs at supermarkets and even gourmet stores, then this is off the charts compared to them....

My blogs are usually upbeat and cheerful, but I couldn’t possibly share a Syrian dish without acknowledging the unrest currently going on in Syria. Syria is a country that has been at civil war for almost 4 years. And the most devastating of this war, as with any war, is the effect on the innocent. More than a quarter of Syrians – 4 million people – have fled their homes to seek safety in neighbouring countries....

We make different varieties of chutney to pair with idli and dosa. We usually make tomato chutney with red chilis. Sometimes a small variation in the ingredient makes a huge difference in the taste. I added a handful of coriander leaves also to enhance the taste. This tomato chili chutney is made without adding coconut. So you can pack this for small travel too. I made this medium spicy but you can add 1 more extra chili to increase the spiciness....

Boil in low flame for 3 minutes and switch off the flame....
