It’s been 2 years now since I’ve stopped eating mutton and chicken and when I crave for biryani, it’s usually fish. But this time I wanted something different; so I tried out egg biryani for a change. For me when it comes to biryani, it’s all in the gravy. The gravy has to be thick…

Egg & Potato Curry
This is yet another quick and easy dish to prepare and super delicious too! I only threw in the potatoes cos I didn’t know what to do with them, plus hubby can have potatoes 24/7/365, so why not! 😂 I was just trying to do something different with eggs and threw in the potatoes as…
Aloo Gobi
In Hindi, aloo means potato and gobi can either be cabbage or cauliflower. This is a typical North Indian dish and in my opinion, the key to any good North Indian dish is the generous amount of cumin seeds and tomatoes. Do not stinge on either of these and your dishes will be yummy! This…
Punjabi Chhole
Chhole is a variety of chickpea also known as chana or kala chana. Kala chana is the black chickpea and is a rich source of iron and minerals. I love black chana and was looking to cook it in a different way when hubby suggested that I cook it Punjabi style. You may wonder what’s…
Carrot & Tomato Raita
Raita is like a side dish and usually made with raw vegetables like carrots, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, pineapple, pomegranate seeds and many many more. You can also use boondi (tiny puffy balls made from gram flour) and this is my all-time favourite. Just add the boondi seconds before serving, so as to maintain the crunch…
Meatless Meat with Chickpeas
This meatless meat or vegan meat is the latest craze in town, but I really don’t understand why it has to be so expensive! Anyway, when I saw this in the local supermarket, I just had to try it. If you recall, I had tried the other latest craze called Impossible Beef and made kheema…
Gluten Free Pizza Crust
I’m truly surprised that I have not yet talked about gluten free pizza crust in my blog! I have made this a few times now and it’s so good; plus nothing beats making pizza base from scratch and making it gluten free too…. 😉 Usually there is a difference in taste in gluten free and…
Methi Fish Curry
Here is another recipe using fresh methi (fenugreek) leaves. I love cooking with fresh methi leaves, as it has lots of health benefits including lowering cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes. My first attempt at cooking anything with fresh methi leaves was Aloo Methi, that I liked very much and recently I tried Methi Dal…
Spinach and Moong Dal Curry
This is one of my favourite curries and it’s so easy to make. It goes well with any stir-fry veggie and a piece of fried fish.I’m really not sure of the English name for this particular type of spinach that I use. It’s green and red in colour. You can even use your favourite type…
Methi Dal
Methi is fenugreek and I used fresh fenugreek leaves for this recipe and yellow moong dal. I have tried with toor dal also, but prefer yellow moong in this particular dish. I am yet to try with chana dal. Methi is mainly used in Indian recipes and has many health benefits like lowering blood cholesterol,…
