What is a Cutlet? If you’re a Malayali, you know all about this crazy delicious snack. This is a really popular Keralite (Christian) recipe and is typically made with beef but you can use another type of ground meat (lamb is great!) if you’d like. I remember the very first time I ate a Keralite cutlet. I was in my third year of college and Roby brought me some of his mom’s cutlets to try....

These masala-coated brown chickpeas are considered a “dry curry” and are often paired with Indian flatbread. I personally love snacking on them with a cup of creamy masala chai. If you’re one of those people who pay very close attention to detail, you may have noticed that in my cookbook, I call this recipe sukhe kala chana, and here on the blog I’m calling it sookha kala chana. Both words mean “dry” but sukhe is a Punjabi word and sookha is a Hindi word....

An essential for hot summer nights, quick mid week meals, make ahead lunches and gatherings! Italian Pasta Salad recipe I was inspired to make this because I went on a Salami Bender* after the Salami Cream Cheese Roll I shared a couple of weeks ago. I could never be a food magazine editor or similar. Because a proper editor would ensure that a variety of recipes and ingredients are used....

To say that this is one of the best roast chickens I have ever had in my life is a big call, I know. That’s how good this is. When you read the recipe, you’ll probably be as dubious as I was. “Lemon and milk? Surely that will curdle. And a cinnamon stick? This just sounds weird.” I then took to Google out of curiosity to see if others had tried it....

Hello, hello! How are you? I’ve missed you! I’ve missed being here, writing to you! What have I been doing for this past month, while I put posting new recipes hold? Just one thing: Working on the cookbook! The Cookbook Vortex This cookbook writing business is all-consuming. At least, it is for me. I am living and breathing it, 24-7. It’s the first thing on my mind when I wake up, it’s the last thing I am thinking of when I go to bed....

Manoharam is a traditional recipe in every brahmin family. Especially during weddings, we make it as a paruppu thengai, with manoharam. It is basically making thenkuzhal and putting it in jaggery syrup and make balls out of it. It tastes awesome. Many of us make this manoharam for Kathigai deepam along with Karthigai Pori urundai and Verkdalai urundai. A must-try recipe, though it may sound elaborate, I can say worth trying this Manoharam for Karthigai Deepam....

“One of the reasons I like these is that they cook in around 20 minutes, compared to a full size meatloaf which usually takes around 1 hour.” I really love meatloaf. But I find that to make a really good one, you need to make it big so you need to use at least 750g – 1kg /1.5 – 2 lb of mince. That is ALOT of meat! It is way too much for a family for one meal (unless you have an extraordinarily large one!...

Quinoa Salad I’m not going to lie to you. Put me in front of a salad bar, and you won’t see me pause for a beat in front of any option containing quinoa. It’s not that I dislike quinoa as such. In fact, when cooked well (psst, toasting it certainly elevates it to loftier heights!), I’ll happily scoff it down plain, just like I do rice. I think it’s more how it’s heralded so staunchly by “healthy” foodies, who insist it’s a superior alternative to rice and other grains we love that makes me – somewhat childishly!...

One pan creamy tomato chicken risoni with crispy salami This dish came into existence because I had a stick of salami left in the fridge and wanted to make a dinner out of it. I did end up going to the grocery store for chicken and baby spinach and risoni, but that’s not the point! She declares insistently 😂 The point is that I always feel like salami is an overlooked ingredient in cooking and I wanted to use it in a dinner....

“OMG, it actually has layers in it!”, my friend exclaimed when I served up this lasagna for lunch today. YES, this does! Have you seen one-pot lasagnas floating around on the internet? I think Martha Stewart started the craze. Here’s the thing though. I am yet to see a “one pot” lasagna that actually looks like a lasagna. None of the ones I have seen actually have layers. They are more like a pasta bake with a delicious mess of broken up lasagna sheets mixed up with the filling and sauce....

Paleo bread doesn’t have to be complicated. You shouldn’t have to jump through bread baking hoops to get a decent gluten-free bun for your burger.

What is Paneer Musallam? Paneer musallam is a vegetarian take on Murgh Musallam, a masala-coated whole chicken. Murgh Musallam is a royal dish that was created in imperial kitchens during India’s Mughal era. For this veg version, we’re replacing chicken with paneer – and simplifying the recipe without getting rid of all the bells and whistles that make this dish worthy of royalty. Because you, my friend, are a [insert the word: King, Queen, Noble Person, Jester – heh]....
